Time is a flyin!!
I can't believe that we are at 24 weeks already! In the beginning, nine months seems like such a long time, but turns out...it's not. So much has been done to get ready for baby in the last few weeks. I was on spring break, so we got to work on the nursery :) We got the painting done, crib and dresser set up, and moved the dogs out of "their room" to a new "spot" in the house, quite a confusing experience for them. We are one construction task away from having the room done, then comes sprucing up the room with decor, curtains, re-covering the rocker, and a rug. I'm trying to get back into the mode of taking pictures all of the time, in prep for when the peanutt is here!
Last doc appt. marked the beginning of measuring my belly with a tape measure. Rest assured, I will have plenty new questions for the doc at our next visit. It's been easy for awhile, not much to comment on. Since he made a note on my chart that I like to ask questions, I may as well live up to it ;)
We completed our registries at Burlington's Baby Depot and Babies R Us. We split it into two days, but it was still an exhausting experience! I intend on going back and looking over the registries to refresh my mind at what we chose. So much to look at and think about! **note to dad...don't go lookin at the registries or you will know the gender!** And with the registries we have set dates for our showers. Very much looking forward to celebrating with family and friends!
Baby has been moving like no other!! I LOVE IT! I got to see my stomach move with his/her movements for the first time...so neat. And the kicks and movements are getting stronger. I certainly don't feel alone anymore when Russ is at work knowing that he/she is very much alive inside. It's hard not to be in love with him/her already :) Russ got to feel the kicks and movement very clearly for the first time in the last few weeks and my sister got to have a wonderful experience of going along to the doctor with us and feeling the baby. I'm sure it weirded her out.
Well, for now, that's the update of prepping for little peanutt and as soon as the room is finished we will post our exciting changes!
