Just a little update!

Well, I can't believe how time just seems to be flying by for me lately! I am 25 weeks pregnant! TWENTY FIVE WEEKS! I can remember when I felt like nine months was going to take forever. Now I am feeling like I am running out of time to get things done. haha! So funny how that happens! I have been feeling really great lately though. I still have my days where all I want to do is sleep but that isn't too often. My belly is big enough now that it's causing a little bit of a waddle when I walk. I am finding it a little hard not to fall over head first when I bend over to tie up my shoes, most of the time you'll hear me calling for Nathan to come help! What else? umm....I have a very very hearty appetite! Nathan said the other night that it's funny to see me eating so much all the time now! I finally got my maternity pants that I ordered!! YES!! It's nice to slip into some pants that I don't feel like I am going to bust out of! I only changed 7 times on saturday trying to find something to wear to church! That's much better then before! haha! Boy how I wish that sweatpants could be dressy, casual and really formal if they needed to be!
Random tidbit: Speaking of the which, the other day I was at the mall with my mom and my sister. I was wearing a pair of my regular jeans, the only ones left that still fit (or so I thought). So we were in a store and I bent over after coming out of the change room to fix my pant leg and my pants popped open! The fly just undid itself ever so nicely! haha! I ran back to the change room and did them back up. Man was I embarrassed! Mom was just laughing. Somehow it was the funniest thing in the world! I guess it could have been worse, they could have busted right open seams and all!
It's been really fun watching my body change. The baby has been moving around lots and lots! At first I wasn't sure if I liked it. It was kind of uncomfortable. But now I am used to it and quite enjoy knowing that the baby is having a good time kicking my butt from time to time. Sometimes I am like 'okay felt you the first time babe' and I'll poke back! Lately the baby has been really active just as I lay down to go to bed. Which is just lovely! Trying to sleep when there is something booting you on the inside! But it's still really exciting! I wouldn't change it for the world!
Anyway, I should post some pictures and then have some breakfast! So enjoy and I hope to hear from you all soon!

Here we are at 23 weeks I believe!


This is 25 weeks!

Take care and God Bless

Ashley, look so pretty and cute!! Isn't pregnancy amazing, all the funny things that come with it. I can't wait to see your lil baby. Growing together as parents in a marriage is the funnest thing ever. You guys and baby are in our prayers.
Luv ya and I sure miss you!!

Oh your poor dog! lol. I bet Bella can't wait til the baby is born so you have someone else to dress up :) I remember doing that to our cat when we were younger,lol.

You're belly is getting big since the last time I seen you. I'm glad to hear you are doing good, and the baby is kicking your butt a little.. :) It always worried me when the girls weren't moving inside me, with all the horror stories and all.
Try taking a walk just before you go to bed, the movement might put the baby to sleep..at least for a little while. I had the same problem with the girls too.
