This week...
Baby Bell 2 is... the size of a head of lettuce - weighing between 1.5 and 2.5 pounds and measuring 13.6 - 14.8 inches long. Wahoo...we are officially measuring baby in pounds now! :) Baby's eyes are forming and eyelashes are coming in as well. Baby has starting taking breaths (of amniotic fluid) and is soaking up Mommy's antibodies so she can be nice and healthy! Keep growing little lady!
My bump is... feeling much bigger this time around - which supposedly happens! But I keep comparing bump pictures from this pregnancy to when I was pregnant with Adalee and I feel like I am about a month bigger than I should be. We will see what the means in the end! :) I think that Adalee has started to notice my growing belly. She likes to sit in my lap and push her hands into my stomach. Something Baby doesn't always appreciate...
I have been feeling... fairly good. A few back pains after long days. Heartburn flares up everyone once and a while. And there have been a few contractions here and there. But otherwise, this pregnancy is going really well - which is great! Mentally, I am starting to get a little overwhelmed about the idea of become a family of four and having two little ones running around. Adalee has been a bit of a handful lately (mostly due to a cold that she can't quite kick), and I constantly find myself wondering how we am going to manage with two. Just have to keep reminding myself that we will figure it out as we go! People do this every day, right?!?
I have been craving... anything sweet! Ice cream, chocolate, cookies, cupcakes, brownies, etc. Any dessert will do! :) With Easter around the corner, those reese's eggs have already made an appearance (or two) in our kitchen cupboard...
Our favorite thing has been... our vacation in Hawaii! We just got back last Saturday, and while we are still getting readjusted with the time change, it was such an amazing trip! I am so glad to have had the quality time with my family! I will be sure to post some pictures from our trip soon!
We are looking forward to... getting back to normal life after vacation. Plus, our to-do list for baby is starting to grow. I feel like I was much more on top of getting things done with Adalee. We still need to work on Baby's nursery and organizing all of the baby things we had put into storage. Oh, and that whole "find a name" thing...still working on that... :)
