So Much Movement!

It's hard to believe we are in the final week of May! The school year is almost over, which is much needed at this point! As school nears an end, we are getting closer and closer to meeting our new little addition! The baby has been moving a TON over the last week or so and has had the hiccups several times! It is an amazing feeling to have such a little person inside of you and really have "normal" things happening, like the hiccups! Phil was able to watch my stomach move and feel the hiccups over the last few days as we relaxed up north at his mom and dad's house. The more I relaxed, the more active the baby was (or the more I was able to feel it because I wasn't running around)!

I have definitely grown over the last few weeks. Phil was gone to chaperone the 8th grade trip to Chicago a few weeks ago and came home after 4 days and definitely recognized how big I had gotten! At this point, the baby should be about 1.5 - 1.75 pounds. We have another doctor's appointment on Wednesday, so we'll update more at that time. We'll be adding some other full-length pictures soon!


This past week, we also picked out our nursery paint color and are looking forward to having time to clean out the "purple room" as it is now called, (the previous owners had painted the walls lavender and put in lavender and grey carpet, which we were too cheap to change, knowing that someday it would be a nursery and done at that point!) and start making it into our nursery. With grad school and working, we will enjoy doing it little by little so I can also partake before I'm too big and have issues being on the floor and then moving things around. So many things to look forward to!

Have a wonderful last week of May!
