23.

23 Weeks!!
This week has been so crazy with finals and school.
I am done with finals Wednesday,
and Aaron is done on Saturday!! yayyy. FREEDOM!!
I did manage to take a few pictures tonight to record the bump..
(I took them after dinner because that's when it seems to show the most! ha)
It is definitely growing each day!!
(I will be honest and tell you that sometimes I try and push it out to see if anyone says anything or notices haha)

My favorite new thing:
laying in bed with Aaron at night,
and WATCHING my tummy.
baby will move like crazy at night,
and you will see all these pokes every which way.
We try and have contests to guess what body part it is.
ha we are so easily entertained with this baby.
Every kick is like Christmas morning.
and Aaron talks to him each night like he is right here,
it's the cutest.
I am so incredibly grateful to be a mom.
Coming up on this Mother's Day,
I have such a new appreciation and love for motherhood.
I see the sacrifices and time it takes to bring one into the world,
and can't help but be so grateful for my wonderful mom.
Can't wait to be a mommy!
ah i love you little one!

  6. I'm so glad to have found your blog! I have loved reading.

    We seem to have quite a similar build and I haven't got a very big bump either! It's at the stage that if you know I'm pregnant it's obvious but I still think a few people at work haven't worked it out. They probably just think I've put on weight!

    Such an exciting time! :)
