26 Weeks (6 1/2 Months)

Our sweet baby girl.  My heart melts every time :)


The Nook

My new addiction is my eReader called the Nook from Barnes and Noble.  This gadget is amazing.  If anyone is really into reading or even just enjoy an occasional book, this little reader is for you!  I know I sound like a sales woman but it is really that awesome!  My mom, who reads like there is no tomorrow, didn't think she was going to enjoy it but now says she couldn't be without one.  The screen really does look like a page from a book.  My suggestion....Ask for one for Christmas!!

Male "Nesting"

At some point during pregnancy a woman/mother begins "nesting."  This is an uncontrollable urge to clean one's house brought on by a desire to prepare a nest for the new baby, to tie up loose ends of old projects and to organize your world.  We all know it happens to women but I have decided it happens to men, specifically, my husband.  He has not only thoroughly (I mean from top to bottom) dry walled, textured and cleaned our garage (really, drywall honey?), he has organized this area like you would not believe.  There are even dividers in the drawers now.  Don't get me wrong, I LOVE IT! but it was an unexpected perk of baby on the way ;)


24 Weeks and Growing

The best, by far, enjoyment I have during pregnancy is feeling her move in my belly.   There is no way to describe just how amazing and wonderful this sensation is.  Ben felt her for the first time last weekend and again last night.  He gets a great big smile and says "I'm pretty sure I can feel her."  She is still growing and gaining strength but every once and awhile she will give a good kick to let me know how much she loves me (at least that is what I tell myself.)
