24 Weeks

24 weeks and 2 days!!  I'm a couple days late this week because Johnny was out of town for the weekend and I didn't have anyone to take my picture with my trustee chalkboard :)
So I am officially in my sixth month which I can't believe!  When people say it's going to fly by they aren't kidding.  It stinks though that pregnancy is technically 10 months rather than 9.  Currently planning for the baby shower which I'm getting excited about.  REALLY excited that both of my sister-n-laws will be there with both of my nieces!!!  It's going to be so much fun.  Now that I know I'm having a little man its actually really fun coming up with ideas.  I stopped at Carter's today on my way home to browse the clearance rack and found a ton of good buys.  Since it's double stamp day I somehow managed to fill up an entire card in one shopping trip!!!  Not that hard actually.  Johnny doesn't even protest anymore when I come home with something, he just lets me show him everything I bought and then mumbles something about how much stuff this kid has already and he's not even born....hehehe.
I'm starting to feel some of the restraints of being pregnant.  I can't put socks or shoes on the same way anymore, I get tired and out of breath from doing things I'm used to doing, I can't always sit the way I want due to discomfort....I forget I have a big belly now :)  My mom has finished 2 out of the 3 quilts she is making (this kid is going to have so many blankets) and they are really pretty.  I picked out fabric and she is making me my bedding set (bumper and crib skirt), I can't wait for that to be done and to have everything all put together.
So here is my picture for this week, I snapped it as soon as I got home from work.....that would explain why I look so lovely (BLAH).
Knuckles got in on this week's pic, isn't he a cutie??!!  Hard to believe that he weighs 8lbs and that is the size of a new born...yikes!
