weeks 20-25

here we are again!
another 5 weeks down!

i had my monthly doctors appointment and everything looked good.

and i got to schedule the dreaded glucose test.

yayyy! really looking forward to that one!

symptoms--

-i almost always have a gross taste in my mouth.

-i've been having acid reflux. yuck.

i think those are the only two major ones right now.

cravings--

-i haven't really had any "cravings" during pregnancy at all.

there are things that sound good but that's just normal life i think.

the babe--

-he moves around quite a bit.

-he is the size of a zucchini.

that's about all i can say for him for now haha :)

now for the fun picture update....

and what do ya know... a little belly is starting to show itself!

so for all of you who aren't convinced there is a baby in there, there is!!

i'm going to try and start doing updates more often now that we are getting farther along.

so check back soon!!

eventful weekend

this weekend i had planned on painting the dresser for the nursery.

well that didn't happen.

thursday when i got off work i met my grandma at walmart to pick out some fabric i liked for some baby blankets.

i hadn't felt sick or anything all day during work but i had been pretty busy so maybe i just didnt notice. but once i got to walmart my body started feeling really achy. i figured it might just be from going, going, going all day and that once i got home and laid down i would be ok.

well that didn't seem to work. i got home and laid down for the rest of the night and when i woke up i felt like full-on-death!!!

all day friday i was in bed dying with the worst body aches and a fever from anywhere from 101.1 to 102.6. scary and not fun.

during all the fun i was having, the weather was having a little fun of its own.

we had a full on flash flood and i missed out on the whole thing.

a friend of branden's lives a block away from us and his house was flooding so branden was over there helping out and sent me these pictures....

seriously so much rain!! how crazy.

this is one of the underpasses in town. completely flooded.

luckily for us, our house didn't flood at all. i did notice a really big hole this morning in our front garden area. so hopefully that isn't anything bad..... uh.......??

oh and if you were wondering, i was sick all day saturday too. idk what the deal was. i almost went up to the hospital a few times because i didn't want my fever to be bad for the little, but i talked to a few people up at labor and delivery and they said as long as it didn't hit a 103 i should be good to stay home. by sunday i was feeling better, thank goodness.

so although i didn't get to paint my dresser this weekend, it still was pretty eventful!
