Week 24- Time is flying!

Had my 24 week appointment today. Everything went great. His heart beat was good and he measured on target. Only one more appointment and then I start going in every 2 weeks! CRAZY! After my appointment on the 9th, the months will start flying by, not that they aren't already. I am so ready to meet my little man. I'm ready to kiss his cheeks and tiny fingers. Gavin is about 13 inches long and weighs about 2 pounds. I have gained 12 pounds total, not too bad I don't think. My goal is under 30 pounds, I am over halfway done with my pregnancy and I haven't even gained half my goal. I think if I really start watching my sugar and carbs and adding in an evening walk, I can make my goal.  The last couple months of pregnancy is when you gain the most, so I feel good about it.

I'm still really hoping I can breastfeed. We started buying a pack of diapers everytime we go grocery shopping so we can stock up through the winter months, especially when I'm not working. So If I can breastfeed, that will save us even more money. I can't believe how expensive formula is! It's been 11 years since we have had to buy it and MAN it's amazing. Here is a picture of my Bebe bump taken at 6 months. It's getting big!!

Week 22! The weeks are flying!

So, I think I have figured out why this pregnancy is moving along so much faster than it did with my daughter. I'M WORKING! With Karlie I didn't work, I stayed at home and randomly watched my nephews and a friends boys. Now, I am at work from 8-4 and the days have litterally been flying by! Gavin's crib is done and his armour is done. We are doing a surf themed room, which has been a bigger challange than I care to admit. I think I may end up making the bedding just because I haven't found any I like. I really want to paint his room, but I want to wait until I get his bed set so I can make sure the paint matches good.  Here is a picture of the crib, we went with black, but now I kinda wish we went with white since we are doing the surf theme....oh well!

Gavin has been moving like crazy and I can tell he has changed positions because I am feeling kicks in new areas. Hopefully by the end of the month I will have his bedroom set ordered or finished. 18 weeks to go!!
