18 weeks

18 weeekssss!!

almost halfway!

this week has been rough. ava came down with croup, for the second time ever. awful awful awful. i thought she was having an asthma attack!

turns out, croup can turn into asthma if it keeps coming back. great.

tomorrow andrew's work is having a company picnic/party!

excited to meet everyone. they all seem great. and he works with his dad, so that's a plus.

last weekend my sister-in-law and her fam came down. my nephew corgan is right behind ava in age. and they are BEST FRIENDS, as ava reiterates every 5 minutes. "CORGAN IS MY BEST FRIEND!!!" i love it!

the grandparents took those two to the pumpkin patch and they had a BLAST from what i hear... and see (see below).

fun, fun times!! those two are pea's in a pod. :)

so here we go... 18 weeks. almost 19!



How far along? 18wks, 6daysTotal weight gain/loss: havent weighed lately, but i'm assuming ive gained looking at this picture...

Maternity clothes? little here and there. mostly pants. trying to stay in leggings now that the weather is cool.
Stretch marks? nope.
Sleep: aside from a sick toddler, sleeping GREAT!
Best moment this week: lots of movement!
Miss Anything? not peeing every 5 minutes. and it's only going to get worse.
Movement: much much more. especially after my morning coffee. she gives me a "good morning" roll around. :)
Food cravings: still mexican. made shrimp and grits like i said i would. and some yummy carrot cake cupcakes. (are you seeing where that belly came from now?!). some carne asada fries sound AMAZING right about now.
Anything making you queasy or sick: nope. and andy made more deer meat the other night. cube steak. and it smelt glorious. so i'm thinking i may try a bite or two next time he cooks some.
Have you started to show yet: more and more!

Wedding rings on or off? On

Looking forward to: some pork at the pig pickin' tomorrow! and some saturday evening football... i know, i know... has nothing to do with baby. i'm always looking forward to her!
