25 weeks! (and a few days late)



So I decided to take a picture of my growing belly this morning. Last time I took a picture I was 22 weeks and 1 day, even though the picture says different. My doctor changed my date, not sure if I mentioned that or not.
I know there isn't much of a difference but heck, I love my belly.
Well, that's all I wanted to share for now.

Where oh where did the sun go?

Its been pretty cloudy these past couple of days. Its as if Mother Nature is holding a big ol' rain cloud over our heads and just taunting us with some fresh rain. But how can you complain this weather is so lovely. It honestly makes me want to pack up the car and head out to the coast. Besides doesn't my car look great at the beach?














But sadly I'm stuck at the office stuffing envelopes. Bummer, I'd really like to work on getting some more color on my legs. I guess I'll just have to enjoy this cloudy weather till I can escape from reality and cozy up next to my fiance on a beach towel.

Now on to some baby news, I had an appointment on Tuesday. According to the doctor everything is going great, except my due date has changed. Instead of the 17th my expected due date is now the 8th of September. Which makes me even more excited because that means I'll get to hold my little Peanut in my arms that much sooner.

I have to admit, work may be horrible but life is pretty grand.

Tiny Kicks

For about 3 weeks now I've been feeling Peanut, that's what we decided to call the baby till he or she is born, and I still get that joy and excitment I felt with that very first kick. The part I love most about the first kick is my fiance and I got to share it together. We had just gotten back from watching the new Nightmare on Elm Street and was relaxing on the couch. Well, fiance had his head on my stomach and all of a sudden I feel a sharp jab in my tummy. Fiance sits up and looks at me and I know he felt it too. We sat there laughing cause the baby had just kicked its daddy in the head.


The next day I was looking online and came across this photo which made me laugh even more:
Its just too perfect for words.
Since then fiance hasn't felt the little one anymore but I sure do. I will be sitting at my desk at work and Peanut will be kicking away. I never knew something so small could bring such joy to my life. The little one isn't even here yet and I already feel like the happiest person in the world.

Where to start...

I wanted to start a blog to write down my thoughts and to always know there is a place to turn to to get things off my chest. You see I find it hard to express myself in person but when it comes to writing, I always find it to be the easiest. I plan to update regularly on work, random thoughts, and my journey as being a new wife and mother.

So let me start off by saying, as of today I am 22 weeks and 3 days along. According to family and friends I'm having a pretty easy pregnancy, no morning sickness whats-so-ever. We are team green so we won't be finding out what we are having. Then again, we wouldn't be able to because my insurance doesn't cover that.
Also, in a few weeks I will be getting married, finally. So my life has made a dramatic turn this year, a complete 180. Its gone from staying out late and partying with friends to getting ready for the wife and mommy role.

This is my roller coaster of a life. So find a good seat and get ready, because who knows what is to come.
