23 weeks and fabric!

My tummy has done a lot of growing these past two weeks! This baby is getting bigger every day! As you can tell I am also carrying low. My Dr. said that my placenta is backwards and that typically means it will stay lower the entire pregnancy. Don't worry she said that it shouldn't cause any problems. I have a feeling that I will have some serious pelvis/back pain in the future!

Next... I have decided to make the crib bedding! Exciting I know. Bree promised me that it isn't hard, so it better not! My good friend Kimberly left me this summer to visit family while her husband is deployed, and since we hung out all the time... I need something to keep me busy! Anyway, one of my co-workers is really into quilting and said she would come with me shopping for fabric and show me some fun quilt shops. We spent an entire friday shopping in Kansas and saw some amazing fabric! It was so hard to decide. But in the end I decided to go with this...


If you have heard of Amy Butler or HeatherBailey... this is a combination of their fabrics. Their fabric is pretty much amazing- go check out their websites! So the big poppie flower fabric will be the bumper, the solid pink will be the trim/ties, the large stripes will be the skirt and the small stripes will be a sheet. There is another fabric by Amy Butler that has a green/yellow polka dot pattern and it goes really well with the poppies... I plan to get that one later because this ended up a LOT more pricey that I thought. But it is totally worth it right???!! What do you think? Be totally honest, I will not be offended if you are not as pumped about it as I am!

21 weeks

This picture isn't the best but...I am starting to show! Finally! It is really wierd to see my stomach get bigger- but in a good way! I feel so much bigger than I look. I am feeling this little one move all the time now. I can't wait until I actually "pop" out and really look pregnant so I can wear clothes that fit and look normal. This in between stage is hard! I will say that being an assistant has been really nice because scrubs are the best thing to wear! They are so comfortable!
