26 weeks!

94 more days until December 6. Today is Labor Day and Bron and I are taking the day off ;). We've been busy busy these last few weekends with the help of a lot of people. I can now look back at the (2) times I broke down in what is now Olivia's room crying because I was just so overwhelmed by all we had to do. Well, I have 94 days left and all the hard stuff is behind us. Nothing to worry about, silly pregnancy hormones! Haha! Although, we have learned that our house is a bit too small for us!! But we are definitely making it work.

This weekend Mom came. It was great to have her here for so long and we already miss her! She and Bron really did a great job painting Olivia's room. I have posted a few *sneak peak* photos of the nursery below.

In other news...Bron and my mom both felt Liv in the middle of her dance party! So not just one strong kick...but her multiple random twitch-like dance moves!! I know this is going to sound weird...but it helps make her feel more real (baby-like) now that other people can feel her too :) Bron and I felt her little feet this AM too! She's just so active all the time & I love it! 


How far along? 26 weeks 5 days
Total weight gain: 23lbs 
Stretch marks? Not yet...holding my breath!
Sleep: Sleeping pretty good still...waking up a little more in the middle of the night.
Best moment this week: Just this weekend was so great!

Miss Anything? I'm getting more & more ready for my regular body back. I am very eager to feel "normal" again...have a beer again...have a normal weight again...lol 
Movement: She moves a lot...love watching this belly jump!
Food cravings: Always something sweet! But I am trying to cut back and really keep to eating the healthy stuff now that the 3rd trimester is coming.
Gender: Girl
Labor Signs: Nope

Symptoms: Have started taking Zantac daily per the doc...so that is a huge relief! Other than that my back has been acting up this week but Bron really has learned to give great massages! (lucky girl!) :)
Belly Button in or out? Same as last week...shallow but inny!
Wedding rings on or off? I wear my engagement ring outside the house...usually take it off while I'm at the house.
Happy or Moody most of the time: I'm pretty happy most of the time.
Looking forward to: The next few weeks and tying the little details together!
