A little update on my growing belly...

In case you haven't heard...we're having a GIRL!! I was completely shocked because I totally thought we were having a boy based on Randy's family trend, but we are so happy to break it and bring in the first girl grandbaby!  She is already being so spoiled by my mom, she is so excited to become a grandma!!  

Had her arms above her head, straight on face shot

I am finally feeling like my old self! I started to get really sick right around when I was supposed to start feeling better.  I would throw up everything, it was awful and made my twelve hour day shifts at the hospital miserable! Thankfully this stage only lasted about a month, I'm so happy it's over! I've started working out a little bit, but am still having a hard time getting back into a regular work out routine.  I count my work days as working out since I'm on my feet all day and walking around, but I could for sure do better! 


I started feeling the baby move around 16 weeks and it was amazing!! Randy finally got to feel her kick the morning of our ultrasound at 18 weeks! I love that he can feel her now, I hated it when I was the only one able to experience it! Nowadays I'm enjoying watching my stomach move as she kicks and wiggles around! I absolutely love it so so much! It's such a nice comforting feeling! 


Here are some pics, not the best of me but they show the bump!


20 weeks-not showing as much as I felt like I was! But she sits super low so  maybe that's why I wasn't showing too much.

21weeks, Shows the belly a lot better, but I also felt like I grew a lot that week! First time wearing maternity clothes, LOVED them! Too bad there is absolutely NOWHERE the buy them up here! 

24 weeks! I look a lot bigger than I thought in this one! Definitely having a hard time fitting into normal clothes! It's so frustrating, I'm hoping I can make it until I go to Utah in November for my shower to buy some more clothes! It's starting to get pretty chilly up here which makes my options on clothes even smaller! 

I have a feeling the time is going to go by a lot quicker pretty soon! I go to Utah in a month for my showers and once they are over we have the holidays to keep us busy!! I think before we know it little girl is going to make her appearance!  I've started nesting a little bit and am going to start working on her nursery! I finally made a decision on bedding and was able to get it so we could find a paint color! It's totally not what I was looking for but fell in love! It's from PB Kids and cannot believe how affordable it was! I'll have to get around to posting a pic of it! 


I've started making some stuff for the baby! I made a car seat cover, but need to see how it fits on the car seat before I can make the finishing touches! Today I started making a few headbands and clips! I have a lot more to go but they were super simple and I love how they turned out so far!  I still have some other stuff to work on that I have already gotten all the goods for so I'll try and post some pics of the other stuff I make when I get around to them!

A little off subject but thought I'd share this pic with everyone... I love it! Just shows how big  Thor is getting! He's weighing in at around 115 nowadays and has about another year of growth ahead of him still!
