25 week pregnancy update

Baby number two problems begin with not having a new picture, on the exact day of each month, to measure growth. I have probably only taken 2-3 pictures in the mirror this entire pregnancy. For Garett, I lived in front of the mirror. I wanted to document every single day, every single cm of growth. Not that I'm less enthusiastic about it this time, but there's just so much other stuff going on that it generally falls to the bottom of my "I NEED TO GET THIS DONE NOW" list.

But lo-and behold, I got a 25 week picture in. This was on Sunday, so I was actually 24 weeks and 6 days here, lol

Anyways, I'm trying to at least be on top of my weekly updates for now. So without further delay:

How far along?
25 weeks +3days

How big is the peanut?
approx. 1 and 1/2lbs now, and supposedly 13 1/2inches

Total weight gain/loss?
In the 4 weeks since my last appointment, I had gained 4lbs. So I'm just about back to starting weight of when I found out I was pregnant. I have 3 more lbs to go before I'm back there, and I assume well  before my next appointment, I will reach that lol

Maternity clothes?
I took out some maternity pants, and am transitioning my shirts too. I am trying to hold off on buying clothes until the summer weather is here to stay. I just want some capris and dress tops to get me through my time at work, pjs, maternity bras and casual clothes will be purchased soon.

Sleep?
No. I don't even like to talk about it anymore. I have been sleeping horribly.

Best moment this week?
Garett feeling her kick for the first time. She goes NUTS when garett is near my belly. He thinks it is so silly that she kicks him.

Symptoms?
Heartburn is in full force. Tired. and always hot. but at least I'm not sick anymore! lol

Food cravings?
Nothing really

Food aversions?
Nothing really here either

Gender?
Girl

Labor signs?
Nope!

Belly button in or out?
In, and deep still

What I miss?
Stomach and back sleeping . Not eating tums every night before bed. Feeling like my body is my own. Have a little while longer to go, so I'm trying to save my massive complaining until I am uncomfortably big at the end lol

What I'm looking forward to?
getting my glucose screening test done and over with on May 10.

Milestones?
Everyday is a milestone, isn't it?! haha

Bump?
 Getting bigger. like, much.

Life Lately

-Hosting Bearbrook Ladies night two weekends ago was wonderful! I put out a full charcuterie spread, made a mint/cranberry/grapefruit drink to share, and all of us received a tarot card reading, palm read and a facial read. Pretty much the reoccurring consensus between all three reads (it was two different people doing it) was that my heart and mind live in a state of conflict, but that it works for me to live in a state of balance. I deal mostly with logic and facts, and less with emotions; they think I would be good as an analyst (weird, since this is pretty well my role at work), and with numbers (which I also do all day at work lol). I'm stubborn and loyal and do not have a mean streak. That I am the same person at home as I am in social settings...blah blah blah. It was interesting! -Last weekend, we went out to Tyler's Disco Inferno show to celebrate our friend Jami and Donna's birthdays. We danced away (one of Keira's ECE's from daycare came out too!) and i...

-Garett went on his first friend play date ever , and he had so much fun. It was his two best friends that left daycare to start school last year. -happy that while Garett was at his play date, Tyler was home with Keira and I went out for a bit alone, then came home and we finished The Belko Experiment movie before I went to get him. (He was there for two hours) -sad that this week, Garett only has four days left at daycare :( Friday is Keira's first day, while I keep g home with me. Can't believe it's already almost school time!! -as a "goodbye" gift from g, we bought his daycare provider a necklace from peoples that is a heart with some Garnet stones in it (Garett's birthstone), to remember him by, and I ordered an Aukey essential oils diffuser , a doTERRA starter kit and an essential oils mixing guide recipe book thing. Hopefully she likes it. -Keira adapted SO well to putting herself down for her nap. She's down to one a day, and I just give...

Friday fun!

Thank God it's Friday, and that this week is O-V-E-R!!! -It was a stressful week at home. Looking forward to a fun weekend! -I am being audited for child care expenses in 2018--I'm not the only one that thinks we pay too much money in child care! LOL...I submitted my receipts online (they are catching up with the times and it's great!) and turns out I actually underclaimed by a few hundred dollars haha. -Tonight is calm, just hanging at home with the kids. -Saturday I have an eyelash appointment at 2:00, and then we have a sitter coming at 6:00 so we can go to a Wine & Cheese night up the road at our friends house. -Sunday is a day of rest until the evening when Shan comes over and we head into town to go to the Trailer Park Boys Christmas at the NAC (I bought Tyler and I tickets as an early Christmas gift). We are sitting pretty close, so I hope we don't get any of their nasty sweat on us lol -Monday I am off since the TPB thing only starts at 8PM, I didn...
