week 18
Where is this time going? Where did this belly come from? Our little baby is growing so quickly.
Feeling: Busy. Stiff. I need some more yoga in my life. Too bad the place I bought the Groupon for closed.
In week 17 I felt like she was stretching my insides out, then at week 18 I woke up one day and had a belly.

Not feeling: I hate having sweet tooth cravings; this is new to me! My sugar cravings are ridiculous - like all I can think about is Jupiter Donut's Reese's donuts, and Palm Beach Ice Cream's cinnamon ice cream with hot fudge... and peanut butter snickers...
Weight gain: She's definitely been on a growing spree these last two weeks, I'm sure it'll be more than the 4 lbs at my week 16 checkup.
Planning: We still need a fence and tires, so thinking we are going to finish up painting and trim on the rooms we've already started to save some cash for the big stuff. Really wanting to hang our new curtains in the nursery but have to paint first.
Projects: We got a crib mattress from our neighbor for an awesome deal, so Patrick wanted to put the crib together... and together it went, in the garage. #newparentmistake because then it couldn't fit in the door to get to the nursery.... so apart it came. We finally got it put together in what will be her nursery. It's good to see the scale and what I'll be working with.
Washing a bunch of clothes for the baby we've gotten from my sisters for future use.
Trying to figure out how to re-upholster the rocker/glider my sister gave me (huge savings considering the ones I've actually liked have been in the range of $1,000). Maybe in white or turquoise linen? Maybe white with turquoise or pink piping? Either way, this chair looks amazing and I want to sit in it and pet it. Or use it as my inspiration for upholstery.
Best thing this week: Why is this always the most difficult one to answer? The start of cooler weather, finding cute pink velvet space-saver baby hangers at TJ Maxx and hanging some clothes, finding an end table to go next to her rocker in the nursery (it's awesome and gold and was on sale for $39). Feeling her move!! I was in bed the other night and was shocked when I felt like there was an aerobics class going on in my belly.

Workouts: Still going 4x a week. 5 if I get off my computer and go this morning...
