Bumpdate: 25 weeks

How far along: 25 weeks, this second trimester is flying by, less than 2 weeks until I am officially in my 3rd trimester.

Baby Size: According to thebump.com Baby Barrett is the size of a cauliflower.

Weight gain: I am going to go with 10 lbs.

Maternity clothes: I still haven't bought any maternity tops but am definitely using my belly band every day I wear jeans 

Stretch marks: Not yet, still working on preventing them though!

Sleep: Having a hard time switching from a back sleeper to a side sleeper, but other than that I can't complain.

  Gender: Boy! Sweet baby Barrett Upton!   Movement: Baby B is still moving around quite a bit and I love it!
Best moments this week: Finally this week someone asked me if I was pregnant! I was honestly thrilled because I feel like I am still in that awkward phase of "is that a baby bump OR does she just carry her weight in her stomach" I got my hair done yesterday, I love love love getting my hair done and it doesn't hurt that my hair stylist is so sweet and always makes for great conversation! I went to my first consignment sale last night, it was a blast and I got a ton of super cute baby clothes for Baby B!
Looking forward to: I've got a lot I am looking forward to this weekend! My 2 favorite kiddos got in town last night to spend the weekend with Aubie, Zach, and Jojo (yes in that order) and I cannot be more excited to spend lots of time loving on these 2 cuties! And since I know they will WEAR ME OUT, I have scheduled my first (and hopefully not last) prenatal massage for Tuesday! Z has his first swim meet with his Masters swim program today and tomorrow, I can't wait to see him in action. K, QT, and I are going to make him a poster to cheer him on :)

Food cravings: Still craving lots and lots of sweets (may have made a Krispy Kreme run one day this week). I have a new love for cereal, I just can't get enough. Panera's iced caramel latte, sooo yummy, writing that out makes me want to go grab one.

  Anything making you queasy or sick: Homemade food, I can eat take out all day every day but for some very strange reason when it comes down to eating the food I've prepared I want nothing to do with it and would rather grab a bowl of cereal.   Labor Signs: More Braxton-hicks contractions.    Symptoms: As my super super sweet niece likes to tell me, I've got a "big tummy" hahaha.
Hubby: For some reason he cannot grasp the name Braxton-hicks contractions, it's so funny he will come home from work and ask if I've had anymore "Simon-Walter contractions" today. I have no idea where he gets the names he comes up with from but they are no where NEAR the actual name. I think now it's more of a joke but for the first 3-4 days he was being completely serious.

Nursery: Planning a trip to the Atlanta IKEA so I can hopefully get everything I'm missing for the nursery and heading to a consignment sale tomorrow to look for a glider! 

 

Belly Button in or out? In 

Wedding rings on or off? On

Workouts: 3 Zumba classes, 3 yoga classes, and walks around the neighborhood with my sweet Aubs daily! 

Love, Jordan
