Officially 17 weeks and 6 days along. 


How Far Along: 17 weeks 6 days as aforementioned 
Gender: Saturdays the day everyone will find out 
Weight Gain: 6 lbs so far 
Maternity Clothes: Just pants, I can still wear my regular jeans as well but not comfortably, still got into all my tops 
Belly Button In or Out: In, I don't think I'll ever get an outtie but we shall see 
Sleep: Sleeping with a blanket between my legs, might have to invest in a body pillow. Still get up on the middle of the night to pee but otherwise sleeping fine. 
Best Moment This Week: Not pregnancy related....seeing my husband in a pair of women's spandex American Flag leggings lol the World Cup is approaching and he's putting together his crazy outfit.  
Miss Anything: Coffee, Wine....basically everything bad for you lol 
Movement: There have been a few times daily where I think I feel a little tiny flutter but it's still so early I can't tell if it's the baby or just gas : / 
Cravings: Dark chocolate covered acai berries, but I've always had a craving for those thanks to my mother-in-law so I hardly doubt it's pregnancy related ha! 
Looking Forward to: This Saturday having all our family together to announce the gender

Maternity Pants

So I'm really not ready for maternity pants, I'm not really "showing". If someone I didn't know saw me walking down the street they wouldn't assume I was pregnant. Maybe just rolly ;) 

However, that said, my pants are getting tighter and as of late I have been exercising the "hair tie" trick. Which, incidentally, is extremely uncomfortable. So last night the hubs took me to get a pair of maternity pants. 

UMMMM HELLO, I don think I will ever wear normal pants again. Few reasons why: 1. They are exceptionally comfortable 2. They only come in small, medium and large, and being that they are maternity pants the sizes run large, rightfully so. Ergo, buying them makes me feel "skinny" even while I'm gaining weight cause I'm still a small. Ha. 3. I got a free shirt with the purchase of my jeans. Um, deal! 

Not sure why I took so long to finally get a pair. The sales lady in the store looked at me funny while I was shopping around, I don't think she thought I was pregnant. I wonder how many non-pregnant people have shopped there? Lol cause I would. 

Anyways, just thought if share

Food baby or real baby?

So, you may have heard me say a few times that I feel way more prego at night. Here is why: 

This picture was taken last night right before bed. This is what I call my food baby....


This picture was taken this morning right after I woke up. I call this my real-baby-that-at-up-all-my-food-and-now-I'm-starving baby.....


And now you can see why I feel super prego at night, and confused in the mornings haha. 

Ps: Id like to take a moment to share a little something my husband said to me last night. Don't go getting all "girl" on me either It's not a big deal and totally made me laugh but when I tried to explain to him that what he said probably shouldn't be said, he didn't understand. Typical guy....

Me: (staring in the mirror at my food baby) "babe do you think this is baby or fat"

Jeff: "probably both"

Me: (shocked look on my face) "what? *start laughing* I can't believe you just said that"

Jeff: "well you've been eating a lot of food lately" 

The rest of the night turned into me making jokes about being fat and not pregnant. 

LOL what a dummie. I love you baby : ) (you said I could share)
