22.5 weeks!

Hey everyone! Happy Wednesday!

As I'm posting this picture I'm asking myself... "why are you posting THIS picture". I look HUGE and this shirt sideways is not flattering at all. Once again I look so tired at the end of the day. Pregnancy isn't for wimps!!!


Well I'm feeling the little guy more and more everday. It's really a neat feeling, and sometimes I get so caught off guard it makes me jump!

I've made it a goal to get working out more and keeping track of what I eat better, and it's helped! I haven't gained a pound in about 2 weeks. Don't worry - this is ok. The Dr. told me my weight had gone up so quickly from 14 - 20 wks and said I need to just be careful I don't do that again the next month (like the same amount of weight). She was cute and goes, "Honestly...we don't care how much you weigh. It's really up to you and what you wanna have to get off later. If you gain only one pound at your 24 wk appt we'll say 'hey good job' and not 'oh my gosh..what's wrong with the baby'. The baby will be fine! You just need to watch the weight for no complications later."

Boy did that really get my butt in check! I got to the gym 3 days in a row last week, and it felt great. Definitely can't work out like I used to. Just hope on the eliptical or walk the tredmill for 30 minutes or so. Honestly..(and I'm going to be really honest here) I've NEVER had this big of a bust and I had noo problem with what I was given before pregnancy. So adjusting to that new part of my body is tough! That has to have some lbs included in my total right?! Also, over Christmas break I really just popped and have been growing little by little since then. Plus Christmas is full of soooo many sweets which I crave. I sound like I'm justfying my weight here. haha - attempting to make myself feel better. Baby boy is about 1lb now so that's something too. Anyways that was probably a litttttle TMI.

Spaghetti Squash
This is definiately not something I'm craving...

There's this cute fruit timeline online of the baby's growth each week and this is about the size of Baby Boy Corl this week. YIKES! Bigger than I thought!

Random Thought Today: Could the Angel Gabriel just come down and say, "You're going to have a son and his name will be ______" That would make name picking a lot easier!! :)

It's a wonderful life!
-Sara and Baby boy
