20 Weeks with Baby #2!

How far along?  20 weeks. Cannot BELIEVE I'm halfway there!!! Everyone's right- the second pregnancy goes wayyyyy faster than the first!

Total weight gain? Gained 7 pounds so far.

Maternity clothes? Same- still maternity jeans every day, plus normal tops.

Sleep? Just getting up a couple times to pee every night... I fall right back to sleep and don't even notice it anymore really.

Best moment this week? I still am just loving feeling this baby squirm and kick and headbutt me all the time. LOVE IT.

Miss anything? Turkey sandwiches.

Movement? All the time!

Food cravings? Pineapple. Cereal. Desserts.

Anything making you queasy or sick? Nope.

Have you started to show yet? Definitely.

Labor signs? Nope.

Belly button in or out? In. Although it's started to do that weird thing it did first time around, with the skin on top poking out already. Belly buttons gross me out.

Wedding ring on or off? On. 

Happy or moody most of the time? Still moody. Still not sure if it's the pregnancy hormones or the weather. I NEED SUNSHINE.

Most days, we just pretend it's way warmer outside than it actually is.

Name possibilities? Still throwing around some ideas. Still waiting for the gender ultrasound. SEVEN.MORE.DAYS. I'm dying. We found out with Graham at 16 weeks, so this has seemed like forever!!

Looking forward to? GENDER ULTRASOUND!!!!

First overnight without Baby #1!

Graham loved his slumber party with the Farmers.
We are so grateful for them loving on our boy!!

Graham at 15 months

Sweet boy loves bathtime now!

Weight: 25 lbs, 5 oz. (50-75th %) Crazy!!! My sweet little underweight infant has grown up into  a big boy toddler!! 

Height: 31.5 inches. (50-75th %)

Clothing size: Some 12 months still, but mostly 18 months.

Diaper size: Cloth... I think size 4 disposable.

Feeding: Kid loves to eat. Cheese is still his favorite of all time, followed by any kind of fruit. He basically just eats what we do for lunch and dinner, sometimes with a few extra veggies thrown in. For breakfast, he gets a no-sugar, no-flour muffin with fruit. Poor kid. But he loves it. :)

Loves his Daddy's carrot!
And anything he can eat like a big boy.

We usually feed him so healthy,
he was probably shocked at what a French fry tasted like...
He devoured it! We love Chick-Fil-A!

Sleeping: We have spent the last month experimenting with his nap schedule after he started giving signs of wanting to drop the morning nap. He's now solidly on one nap a day, between 2-3 hours. Bedtime between 7-8pm, depending on how his nap was.

Milestones: Taking first steps on his own! First haircut (by Daddy!).

Likes: He has been loving his big boy baths lately, playing with his tub toys and splashing around. Pulling lots of items out of a bucket. Putting lots of items into a bucket. Pushing buckets around like walkers. Eating. Being sung to. Climbing up the stairs, over and over and over. Throwing things down the stairs. Music class.

Don't even try to take away his drumsticks during music class!

Dislikes: Getting his diaper changed. Not getting his way. Snow.

Playing with neighbors in the snow, before it got crazy cold.
G wasn't impressed.

Adventures: Snow. Cold. Ugh. Children's Museum. Kaleigh's 1st birthday party!

What we couldn't live with out: Buckets. Ha.

My favorite part of parenting this age: Seeing him learn and grow every day. Seriously so fun to see him more developed every single day. Crazy.

The hardest part of parenting this age: Did I mention this weather?! Ugh. Get us outside!!!!

18 Weeks with Baby #2

Baby is the size of a sweet potato, and
I'm really starting to pop out!!

How far along?  18 weeks.

Total weight gain? Gained 5 pounds so far.

Not sure if these are the culprit of my weight gain or the baby. :)
Thanks to our friend Matt; your cookies hit the spot for baby and Mommy!

Maternity clothes? Definitely maternity jeans every day now. Still wearing normal stuff on top.

Sleep? Just getting up a couple times to pee.

Best moment this week? Feeling this sweet baby moving everywhere all the time!! I LOVE IT. And Andrew got to feel it already! This is all so much earlier than it was with Graham.

Miss anything? Hmmmm. I am just so used to not eating/ drinking all the stuff they tell you not to eat/ drink, it just seems normal right now. So I will stay on my cold weather soapbox instead. I want spring!!!! Longest.coldest.worst.winter.EVER.

The day I became a mall walker. G liked the stroller more than the kids' play area.

This is what we do cooped up inside. Sit in buckets. Ha.

Movement? This baby is a mover!! I think I felt movement with this one around 13 weeks, but it hasn't been consistent or strong until this past week. Now I feel it a lot, and it's so fun!!

Food cravings? Pineapple. Sweets.

Anything making you queasy or sick? Nope.

Have you started to show yet? Oh yeah.

Labor signs? Nope.

Belly button in or out? In.

Wedding ring on or off? On. 

Happy or moody most of the time? Moody. Not sure if it's preggo hormones or this weather. :(

Name possibilities? We have some ideas, but we're still waiting on the gender to really decide. 2 more weeks til the gender ultrasound!!

Looking forward to? Finding out if it's a boy or girl!!! I'm dyyyyyyying to know!! We are still guessing it's a girl.
