One week from today...

…I will know if you are a boy or a girl. It feels like Christmas. I can’t wait.

Today I am 17 weeks pregnant. The baby is now about 5 inches long. Sometime between now and week 20 the baby’s hearing will develop, and it will be able to hear us. I have been feeling really good. I just have some crazy hormonal moments every once in awhile. One second I’m crying in the grocery store because I heard a little kid say “mom”. The next moment I want to flip everyone off on the road because they are driving like maniacs. “Why in the hell did that guy just cut me off…doesn’t he know I’m pregnant?!!?” Yup… I’m highly irrational. Feel sorry for Drew. He never knows if he is coming home to a sobbing puddle or a she beast.

My baby and I...

...will totally support breast feeding. I love this onesie. Can't find it online though. I just saw it on another mommy blog.

Happy Father's Day

I love you Dad.
I will see you very soon.
Save the crossword puzzles for me so we can do them together.

My favorite...

This is my favorite picture of me and Drew. It was taken by my sister the day after our wedding in the florida keys. We are tired and happy. Very very happy.

16 weeks

Today I am 16 weeks pregnant. The baby is now about the size of an avocado. The baby can grasp with its hands, kick and somersault. Muscles are developing and the baby can now make faces…squint and frown. A growth spurt is coming. The baby will double its weight in the next few weeks. Grow baby grow.

Great Dane Meet up

This weekend we took Mr. Marlow to a great dane meet up. This one was held on Rex Butterfield's property on Lake Travis. The home was amazingly beautiful and there was a ton of space for all the puppies to run around. Marlow loves playing in the water but is a big weenie and won't go very deep. Drew convinced him to jump off the dock and swin with him in the deeper water, but he DID NOT like it. Marlow ignored us for about 10 minutes afterward because he was so angry. Puppy does not like to swim. Marlow was so tuckered he slept the whole way home with his face propped against my seat. I love my big baby.

Barnes and Noble stole my money...

I went to Barnes and Noble on my lunch break and splurged a little. Two new books for summer reading, and the last picture is this little pocket sized blank book with colored pencils that I can throw in my purse. They also had a new Cook's Illustrated and Lucky mag. Hooray!
