I can't believe how fast but slow it goes. I've been talking to my mom and sister a lot this week, getting ready for my baby shower in California, and I was all I have plenty of time still and they reminded me that I really don't. January will go by fast and then my baby shower in February and then I swear March will fly by and then BAM it is April. I am due April 19th, so really the baby can come early or late. No one knows. I need to deep clean my house, try to make some of my DIY stuff I want to make for our baby girl (which includes the crib bedding) and then clean out the nursery that is now my sewing room. My sister helped me with my baby registry over the phone and then today we narrowed down and picked out the baby invitations. My sister knows me pretty well : ) I am so happy my mom and sister are planning this shower for me. Can't wait to come home one last time before the baby comes.
My mom just let me know today that she is planning to come out the day before I am due and will stay around 10 days or longer if possible and if needed. I am so excited because she will be able to help me so much with the baby, with me getting some rest and with her being a labor and delivery nurse she will be able to help me with any questions in person instead of over the phone. She will also help me with breast feeding if I am having problems. She is excited because she is taking a course at work before the baby comes that will be helpful for me. I am so blessed. She said if I want my own personal time she will just go to my brothers house. But how awesome will it be to have some help if I needed it. A girl always needs her momma!
A few days ago Scott was finally able to feel our baby girl move. It took him a few minutes but then she gave us a big kick and he was all "was that it"! he was so excited and I was so excited as well. He was all " What the heck is she doing?" haha. She just rolls around and kicks. New Years day she had the hiccups. It was kinda funny. At first I wasn't sure what she was doing and then it kept going. I looked it up and yep it was hiccups. I figured it was but wasn't sure if I was far enough along to feel it.
I am loving being pregnant. Sometimes I don't get a bunch of sleep but lately I have been sleeping ok, just takes me awhile to get to bed. I am feeling pretty good though. Some days better than others but I am pretty happy and just excited that the baby moves so much more because it is the coolest feeling! I am just so happy we are starting a family! I love Scott so much and I am blessed for all he does and that he works so hard so that I don't have to work. I can't wait to be a stay at home mom.
