Bump: 22 Weeks ...

How Far Along: 22 Weeks


Total Weight Gain:  Forgot to weight myself this morning, oops!

Size of Baby: Corn on the Cob

Maternity Clothes: Some Lularoe that is not maternity - other wise, maternity all the way.

Sleep: Still good - although getting up early in the AM to go to the bathroom.

Food Cravings: Sweets 

Food Aversions: Shrimp

Gender: Girl :) 

Symptoms: I'm beginning to get tired more often again ...

Milestones: Typically babies at 22 weeks are 1 pound - so we've hit the 1 pound mark! 

Movement: Continuing to feel her more and more - and she even gave the hubs a good kick last night!

Best moment of the week: Spending lots of time with family and having the hubs feel her kick for the first time.  His face was pretty priceless :) 

Looking forward to: Going to IKEA to get furniture for the nursery.  

Extra Notes:  Being on break this week has been wonderful - time to relax and get some things done.

On Christmas Day my niece Addi told me, "I really want to feel baby girl kick."  It was quite possibly the cutest thing ever.

Bump: 21 Weeks ...

How Far Along: 21 Weeks


{Don't mind the end of Kindergarten Christmas party look ;)  }


Total Weight Gain: 22 lbs

Size of Baby: Carrot

Maternity Clothes: Bottoms YES! Tops, some yes ... some still non-maternity.

Sleep: So far, so good!

Food Cravings: Sweets and carbs

Food Aversions: Spicy food does not sound appealing at all - but then again it never really does.

Gender: Girl :) 

Symptoms: I still have to go to the bathroom ALL the time ... at school I am constantly looking out my door to grab someone to cover my classroom so I can escape for a quick bathroom break. :)

Milestones: Past the halfway mark!

Movement: Feeling her more and more.

Best moment of the week: Sweet baby girl gifts from friends - so very thoughtful and crazy to think we will have something so little to fit in those outfits!

Looking forward to: Christmas Break! Officially starts this evening! 

Extra Notes:  This week we moved the furniture from the nursery into the guest room so we can start working on Baby Girl's room!  We also found bedding that we LOVE and hopefully my mother in law will be making it for us. :)

Lots of coworkers on Monday told me I definitely grew over the weekend.  They said you can definitely now tell I'm pregnant. 

We have a name for baby girl - but won't be sharing it until she arrives.  Here's to hoping neither one of us slip up! :)

Bye Bye Bike Room ...

It is true ... this was one of our spare bedrooms in the house ...


And now, it's clear why we needed to build a garage SO badly!  I'm happy to report that the garage is DONE! {If it wasn't so stinking cold out I'd go take a picture!} and yesterday we successfully finished putting everything together in the guest room/workout room!


We moved the bed and dresser over from the other spare room that will now become the nursery ...


I have to say, we're pretty happy with the final product!  It took a lot of work - the hubs had lots of stuff that he had to go through {thank you thank you for doing that!} but it is DONE! 

Now ... time to start working on the nursery! :)

Bump: 20 Weeks ...

How Far Along: 20 Weeks



Total Weight Gain: 19 lbs

Size of Baby: Artichoke 

Maternity Clothes: Still wearing some regular shirts and some of my larger sweatpants at home - but for work, it's maternity bottoms ALL the way! 

Sleep: So far, so good!

Food Cravings: Chocolate!

Food Aversions: The hubs mentioned getting a BBQ pizza last night and that sounded NASTY to me!

Gender: Bring on the pink ... it's a GIRL!





Symptoms: Peeing ALL the time!

Milestones: We're halfway there! Time is flying by right now!

Movement: I've been feeling a little! At our appointment yesterday they said that my placenta is sitting just right so it is keeping me from feeling a lot of movement right now.  But, we saw her moving and grooving yesterday! 

Best moment of the week: Our ultrasound appointment yesterday! We got to watch baby girl on the screen for a good 20/25 minutes.  And we found out that all looks good! So reassuring to hear!

Looking forward to: Christmas break and sleeping in! :)

Extra Notes:  I will admit it, I was convinced we were having a boy - and the hubs is pretty proud to say that he predicted Girl from the beginning :) 

The kinders voted on what they thought Baby Webb would be and boy won.  I had some disappointed boys today when they found out it was a girl :)  They also thought that I was bringing the baby back for them to see today ... thankfully new pictures of her made them happy :)

Bump: 19 Weeks ...

How Far Along: 19 Weeks

Size of Baby: Tomato, four-toed hedgehog

Maternity Clothes?: Bottoms, definitely!  I can still wear some dresses/tops that are non-maternity, they're just a little tighter now :)

Food Cravings: Still cool ranch Doritos, and chocolate.

Food Aversions: Nothing.

Gender: Find out next week! 

Symptoms: Still just tired ...

Milestones: No big milestones that I can think of. 

Movement: I think I felt some today! Hoping I feel it more often so I know for sure that it is actually the baby. :)

Best moment this week: Having the hubs return home after being out of the state 4 nights! 

Looking forward to: Finding out the gender next week!

Extra Notes: Nothing extra note worthy this week ...
