26 weeks! :D

i know, i know, i've been slacking a lot. just been so busy trying to get this new car so i can not put carseat in my bug haha. but blake's been getting bigger and that's awesome. for a couple of days he found my sciatic nerve and had lots of fun kicking it...well, fun for him, NOT for me lol. that hurt. a lot. i'm just glad he tired of that habit quickly. :)

i think tonight i finally had my first braxton hicks contraction! well first one i noticed lol. i didn't really feel much, just i thought i felt a little something, assumed that maybe he just moved or something, but when i touched my belly it was hard all over, like more than i think he would be able to cover. so that's cool! :)

he's so cute. a few nights ago i stuck a reese's peanut butter cup on my belly and was telling blake to kick it, and he did! he couldn't kick it off, but it was fun watching it bob up and down. he pretty much kicks at anything on my belly. for example, i have one of those bebe' sounds prenatal listeners (haven't found his heart beat yet though), and no matter where it is, he kicks right at the receiver. i had it up by my belly button, and he started kicking at it, so i moved it down closer to around my pubic bone, and without missing a beat he started kicking there too. he's just so smart lol, so now it's kinda a game we play. i like to kind of have an interactive game to play with him before he's even born. haha the other day i said "okay blake, if you want mommy to get this new car, kick me!" and sure enough he started kicking me! i was like whoa! lol i love it. :)

ahhhh one more week until my 4D ultrasound! it's so exciting! i can't waitttt. i just can't believe that i'm this far along already. i like pregnancy a lot. :)

and now for the 26 weeks picture, or six and half months...how ever you're counting! it looks smaller than the 24 week pic, but that's mainly b/c i ate a lot on that day, and not as much today. enjoy!

another cute one!

oh how time flies. :) and now for some cute icons:

24 weeks :D

sorry i kinda skipped week 23, busy busy week, but now school is finally over. :) and omg i'm growing by leaps and bounds! i love it! i actually had my first person ask when i was due without me saying anything about being pregnant for the first time! :D it was pretty exciting. i'm so glad that i've finally made it to six months! and blake is still super active. it's so cute! if fact he's kicking me right now hehe. :) and i finally got it on video last night!

so this is cute :)

and it automatically had my due date already put in, so i figured it was a sign. :)

22 weeks!

so yesterday was the ultrasound and it is in fact a two vessel umbilical cord. which means that i'm now considered a high risk pregnancy. so far everything looks good though, he got a fetal echocardiogram along with the ultrasound and the doctor said that right now everything sounds perfect. but yay for more ultrasounds! we FINALLY got a profile shot, he is so cute. looks like me still so far haha. and he weighs 13 ounces right now. getting so big! :) oh and he got his first case of hiccups this morning. i can't wait for him to get them again! so without further ado, here are the pics from yesterday! (21 weeks 6 days)

here is his face. and an eyeball lol. looks like my chin!




good news! still a boy! so i can keep all this boy stuff hehe. :)




profile! and his cute little hand up by his face. so cute.




another profile! looks like mine too!




and last but not least, my belly at 22 weeks!

21 weeks! :D

well at the end of last week mom felt him moving, the first one to do so other than me. it was so exciting! and then ryan felt him kick today, and boy did he kick hard that one time. he's so active, i can't wait until he's here!

so at the ultrasound they weren't able to get a good view of the umbilical cord, so they're not sure if he only has two vessels instead of three in it. i'm going to pensacola on the 16th for a level 2 ultrasound to make sure everything is okay, i hope it is. on the bright side though, mom will finally get to see an updated ultrasound of blake! so that's kinda exciting, but still i hope everything is fine and that he does in fact have a three vessel cord. if it was only two vessels everything would probably still be okay, but they would just have to watch me closer. here's to hoping.

i'm finally showing a little bit more, even though some days i look way more pregnant than others lol, and today is one of those days.

20 weeks! :D

well, it's official, it's a boy!!!! i'm having a little blake konnor. shopping for him today was so much fun. i really wanted a girl, but i guess i'll just try again next time. :) i ate a sugar cube before i went, and wow he was active. he went from breech, to cephalid, to transverse. all in a little less than an hour. but he's beautiful. and we almost couldn't tell the sex. too much movement, and the umbilical cord was between his legs the whole time. the heartbeat is now 140. i got to see him swallowing and the tech said he was picking his nose lol but i would like to say that he was sucking on his thumb or fingers. i cannot wait to meet him. :)

so this is his cute little face, complete with one hand above his head and another right next to his face:




and this is proof he's a boy:



and this is a foot! looks just like my feet. :) it's so amazing!




he's just so beautiful! and a cute profile, even though we didn't get a picture of that.

and this is as big as i've gotten so far, at my halfway point (yeah, that's it lol):



well as of right now that's about all i have to update on. :)
