I'm Back!!!

So sorry it has taken me so long to post! Things have been crazy busy at work and trying to get everything ready for Gracie!! Things are coming along! We (actually I should say Fred aka "Pappy)" came down and painted Gracie's accent wall in the nursery. It looks great! And to everyone surprise, we painted it a light pale pink!! I know, it's hard to believe that there is so much pink going on with this child, we know how much I love it!! HAHAHA!! We also changed her bedding from what I originally decided. Instead of nuetral polka dots, it is pink, brown, and green!! I will definitely post pictures when her room is finished! Now that we have painted hopefully Allen will be putting her crib and changing table together!!!!

I promise I will try to post another blog a lot sooner than this last time!

I'm also posting more belly pictures! Unfortunately with things as crazy as they have been, I missed a couple of weeks but I hope you enjoy what I have been taking! I'm definitely getting bigger and bigger!!! :)

And here is this weeks survey!!

Pregnancy: 24 weeks 6 month mark, can you believe it?

Weight Gain: Well I haven't been weighing lately, but I'm guessing that I have gained about 13-14 lbs. I will find out exactly how much I have gained next Friday at my doctor's appt.

Sleep: I have been sleeping very well until this last week. My hips have started hurting so I have had to sleep with a pillow between my knees and that has seemed to help. I'm still tossing and turning but with no pain at least.

Gender: We actually had to go back and have another ultrasound because she was moving to much the first time and they didn't get all the measurements that they needed, so Allen was finally able to go with me and got to see her. And yes.....it's still a girl!!!

Name: Gracie is a definite, but still no middle name!

Feeling: Really good still!

Health: Still on track where I am supposed to be, so the doctor tells me!

Movement: As we already knew from my ultrasounds, she moves a lot! I feel her move all the time! Allen got to feel her move too!! I was so happy that he was the first to feel her move!! He was very excited too! His eyes lit up when he felt her!

Belly: Definitely obvious now!!

What I am looking forward to: Still excited about the unknown and all that is still to come!

What I miss: My normal clothes and figure! HAHAHA!! But I keep telling myself that it will all be worth it!!
