Update on my blossoming sprout:
Week--> 13.5
Feeling--> bouts of energy, then sudden exhaustion {but most of all, I feel so much better and happier}
Craving--> Cantaloupe & lemonade
Most embarrassing moment--> peeing my pants because I couldn't make it in the house fast enough. Guess I can't hold it like I used to.
Most awestruck moment--> seeing our baby movin' and grovin' on that screen. Nothing in the world compares. I can't imagine what I'll feel when I see our baby face to face for the first time.
Worst habit--> falling asleep on the couch after a long day of work or class and not wanting to get up, brush my teeth, and get into bed. It always sounds like the biggest, most difficult thing to do! Ky has to literally peel me off of that thing.
Best habit--> eating lots of fruit & drinking lots of milk
I'm smelling--> EVERYTHING! Holy moly. Moseby's been booted outside because of it :( it had to happen sooner or later.
I'm wearing--> my same jeans! Except, instead of buttoning them, I've been using a rubberband. {best trick EVER!}
Skeeter is--> massaging the baby daily. You know how cats kneed things? He does it to my belly constantly. I really think he knows something's in there.
School is--> almost over!!! I can't wait! One less thing to steal my focus away from my growing baby.
And there you have it! That's all I can think of at this point. Figured I should finally post something about my pregnancy, right?! Have a great Saturday :)
Love,
Jill
These two pictures of Ky & me are taken at Newport Beach actually. We ventured our way over there one evening to enjoy a fine dining experience and soak up yet another gorgeous beach!
I don't know why this picture makes me look so pale.... We both got absolutely fried our first day. Who knew waiting for our room to be cleaned, sitting (or should I say lounging across a beach bench) by the ocean would cause one to burn so quickly...!
One afternoon, we decided to visit a local mammal habitat rehabilitation center for sea lions and seals. They were sooo cute! And so was Gracie (the bird pictured) who was known as the "seal keeper". It was great to see people volunteering their time for such a great cause-- to give these animals a new and better chance at life.
This was the day we went on a hike. Oh boy, what a hike that was! Remember my FB post about the rattlesnake? Yeah, that was this hike. I still can't believe I didn't lose my ankle to that beast. Oh and I am trying to show off that bebe and I conquered the hills (I'm talking serious HILLS), but you can hardly see my bump! I swear there's a baby in there. One day, just my luck, I am going to blow up like a balloon and all you'll see is belly. Just wait.
My favorite beach bum! (He still thinks he's in Hawaii...)
If you ever go to Laguna, you absolutely MUST eat at The Cottage! We did-- three times! Haha, it was our go-to local spot. Their food is delicious. Seriously, dangerously good.
We had so much fun together! I still daydream about it. Ok, so it's only been a few days since we've been back. But in my mind, I am still living back at that beach. I am so unbelievably lucky to have Ky. He made my trip unforgettable.
IN ONLY A WEEK!
