18 weeks

I'm loving the styles that are in this pregnancy. I find myself in leggings and tunicy shirts with boots almost every day. So comfortable but I also look half way decent. I've had a few people ask so I'm going to start including what and where each item of clothing is.

Green slouchy cardigan : motherhood. LOVE it. Got it in 3 different colors and will wear these even when not pregggo
White shirt: motherhood
leggings: maternity from target. they are a slick material which I love my tops dont cling to it.
boots: Uggs



How Far Along: 18 weeks

Size of Baby: The length of a bell pepper from head to rump 

Total Weight Gain: none. Still holding strong at about 10 lbs from my pre pregnancy weight. loving this!

Gender: BOY! Walker Hanson

Movement: Yep! Kicks :) Waiting to be able to feel it from the outside.

 

Sleep: Starts out great and then ends with me on the couch uncomfortable and wide awake

Maternity Clothes: Mostly maternity bottoms but the tops are a mix

Signs of Labor/Symptoms: none. But I am on modified bedrest until further notice because of Placenta Previa and bleeding. Baby is doing wonderful though and it does not seem to be effecting him at all but it has the doctors a little concerned so I'm supposed to be taking it very easy, resting, feet up, no heavy lifting, pelvic rest . How fun does that sound?! You can imagine how well this is going with an almost 3 year old. Needless to say it really hasnt been working.

Bellybutton: In

Cravings: I'm all about salads right now. Yumm

Sleep: Starts out great and then ends with me on the couch uncomfortable and wide awake

Maternity Clothes:  Its a mix. Gary took me shopping this past weekend for maternity clothes because I was starting to have very limited options and it was putting me in a bad mood. He was so sweet to recognize that his ever growing wife was in need of something to wear. Sweet man

Signs of Labor/Symptoms: none. But I am on modified bedrest until further notice because of Placenta Previa and bleeding.

Halloween Parade

 Last Tuesday Davis had a Halloween Parade at school and his Halloween Party. We all got a good laugh at watching these little ones "parade" around the courtyard. I'm not sure how much parading there was but there was a lot of herding ;) Bless these teachers hearts...there were kids going in every direction and some crying at the sight of seeing mommies and daddies. I was proud of D, there were no tears...a little detour to the grandparents but no tears! We all bundled up and enjoyed the "show"!

Here they come!

See our little bat leading the pack? His costume cracked me up...I think i was the ears that were so funny to me! Thanks Didi for our costume we loved it :)

Parading

This was about the time he realized we were all there...and this is where we lost him to the grandparents!

Our resident rock stars

Sweet little fairy

Umm up here buddy!

Flapping his wings

 After the parade I took the boy back into his classroom to get him changed and settled in for his Halloween party. Apparently he felt the need to break out in a little dance routine...

Gettin' low

Those are some sweet moves D! This childs personality cracks us up on a daily basis. I mean no music playing but dancing to his own beat...keep dancing buddy

Pumpkin Patch

 A week (or so) ago Davis's class went to the pumpkin patch at their school. Every year the church that their preschool is at puts on a big pumpkin patch. It is always so fun and has such nice people at it :) I grew up enjoying it and it is just so fun now to be there with Davis. I helped with face painting and then went and sat with his class during story time. The kids had fun and were all over the place!

Coming down to the patch!

Sweet Leyton(and mommy Kristen) at story time

Davis was more concerned with checking out the tent we were sitting in

I love this picture. He insisted on sitting right in the middle of all the pumpkins.

Ever tried to take a picture of nine 2 year olds? not an easy task...

no one looking...

This way D! Hadley, front and center!

poor Leyton was trying to poke her head up....I gave up at this point! ha! 

Love his sweet classmates..they are all just precious :)

Up next....Halloween parade!
