24 Weeks!

A 24 Week Update!

How far along: 24 weeks! She is about the size of an ear of corn.

Sleep: Sleep is pretty good. "Sam" the snoogle helps a lot. Getting up about 3 times to use the bathroom but I am pretty sure I'm asleep before my head hits the pillow again. And a little TMI for you...I've started to sweat at night...A LOT. Symptoms: The heartburn is out of control. Minor swelling this week, partly because I was probably on my feet too much. We started working on Tenley's nursery, I lasted about 2 hours before the lower back pain set in. Thankfully my mom and dad were there to help us!

Food Cravings: Still Mexican food. In fact I wanted Mexican so bad on Friday night I went to Habaneros ALONE and ate enough for three people..not really but it felt like it!

Gender: A sweet baby girl.

Name: Tenley Hope Arnett

Movement: Lots of strong movement! She feels very low and I think she is using my bladder as a punching bag. She kicked Mark for a good five minutes the other night! He was really excited. Mark is a "dead to the world" sleeper and he came straight up out of the bed the other morning to feel her move. It is so sweet to watch his face light up when she kicks him.

Best Pregnancy Moment: Our 3rd anniversary was Tuesday. My sweet hubby works 6 ten hour days a week, so we didn't get to celebrate until Sunday. We went to the zoo early trying to beat the heat. I only made it two hours before the heat and the walking got to me. We had a great time and we had fun using my sweet new camera he bought me! He treated me to Firebirds (our favorite!!) that night, and the Cheesecake Factory after for desert. With us being on opposite shifts and him working all the time, we only get one full day together every two weeks. It has been pretty hard on us. Hopefully our job schedules will straighten out soon.

What I Miss: I would have really enjoyed a glass of wine with my steak dinner Sunday night!!

What I'm Looking Forward To: Getting carpet in our house! We pulled up the old stuff this weekend and now we are waiting on installation. Then we can set up her furniture and start decorating!

 

 

And here is a 6 week difference for you! My sweet girl is definitely growing!
