Baby clothes

So I thought since I wasn't having a girl I would do better on spending money on clothes...... Doesn't look like it though. :) I can't help myself!

Bellybuds

I ordered these off Amazon! The baby can hear sound around 18 weeks. They are pretty cool.

How far along: 18 weeks 4 days.
Total weight gain: 12 pounds.
Maternity clothes: I have bought 3 pairs of pants. I can still fit my big butt into a few pairs of my regular jeans, but they wont button. So its more comfortable to just wear the big ones!!! 
Sleep: Actually pretty good. I just have to pee every 2 hours it seems like. 
Stretch marks: Nope not yet! added vitamin E to the daily  routine also! 
Best moment of the week: I ordered my baby bedding today!!! Oh and we found out that IT's A BOY! last week

Baby Bedding!!!

After searching and hearing that the fabric was discontinued, I finally found someone that had some still in stock!!!mellissasboutique from Etsy is my life saver!!! So, I got it ordered. I'm so excited I can start buying accessories and painting!

Clothing Downers

So this weekend I decided that I was tired of picking out an outfit and then it not fitting. It is making me feel just plain FAT....... I look more like I have a beer gut rather than a prego belly. To solve this problem I decided that I would try on every single thing in my closet and if it didn't fit I would move it, so there would be no more of what can I fit in and what am I too fat for. Needless to say my choice of outfit was drastically reduced! Guess that mean I just need to go shopping!!!! lol.  

My Closet Before:

After I Tried Everything On:

New food Adventures

 So today I went into fresh and I was of course hungry! Big Mistake. ...... I did get a lot of healthy things, but also had some random urge to get some things that I have never even tried before. I a dragon-fruit which I hope is good. I sure cost enough. The internet said it tasted like a cross between a pear and a kiwi. We shall see........ Also I got the best trail mix ever. I think I have already eaten 1/2 the bag.

16 weeks

I look so much more prego at night than in the morning! I have to start taking these pictures in the AM. OH and my face is starting to look fat. Or maybe Ryan just sucks at taking pictures.

How far along: 16 weeks.
Total weight gain: about 9 pounds.;(
Maternity clothes: not yet! I'm not so bloated so I can still button a few pair of pants, but still using bella band and jeans are not my 1st choice of clothing. After I eat I have noticed that it looks like I have gained about 10 pounds. 
Sleep: Actually pretty good. I just have to pee every 2 hours it seems like. 
Stretch marks: Nope!
Best moment of the week: Well it's Christmas break so just getting to rest is pretty great. My sweet husband got me a new camera for Christmas so I have to figure out how to use it!
Miss anything: Being able to just have a glass of wine! Ryan's mom opened a bottle and my mouth was just watering. I drank enough Wassel to push back the cravings. 
Movement: Not any that I can feel.
Food Craving: Not really. About to really start eating healthy I have to slow down this weight gain. Oh I was craving bloody mary mix. When we went to Houston I was going to get Major Peters "the works." Well when I got to the store they didn't have it so I got the Hot and the Original and was going to mix them, but it just wasn't the same. Oh and of course I love pickles.
Anything making you queasy or sick: Not really.. except when Ryan farts
Have you started to show yet: Yep! But I look more like I'm getting fat than prego.
Gender: ?.
Belly button in or out: Its in.
Wedding rings on or off: Still on.
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy!
Looking forward to: Finding out what we are having!!!
