23 weeks

Here's a 23 week so many days photo

I think I've gained like 4 or 5lbs so far. Hoping to keep the numbers low this time...but we'll see. I gained like 40something pounds with Emmie. I'd like to keep this baby around the 25lb mark, but what happens, happens I suppose.

Not much new. Her movements are more subtle now. I think she flipped back head up, so her kicks are low and feel like a fishy swimming or toes digging into me more than kicks. Hope she flips back head down soon and I can feel some good kicks :)

Been working on a bow holder for Ryann and Emmie's bathroom. Nearly finished. :)

Newest Creation

Today I created the sleepy dinosaur lovie :)
I have a feeling this may be a popular pattern :P dinos are in lol

Patterns

I've started selling my own crochet patterns on Etsy :)
I'm pretty excited about this. It's much easier to make a pattern, write it up and sell copies of it than have to crank out a bunch of hats or shoes or whatever. So hopefully my patterns take off and I can make a little money from them :)

Here is my latest creation

I'm pretty excited, I sold my first pattern this morning. It was the pattern for this Sleepy Owl Lovie in the picture above :)
Going to start working on patterns for other animals. On my list I have dino, monkey, giraffe, and bear...If you have any super creative animal ideas please tell me! What kind of animal would you like to cuddle with? lol

Pretty sure I have the cutest kid ever.

Not much is new. Sold the king bed, sold the crib....Emmie's bed is put together and in her room and she loves it, we love it. Just trying to get this house reorganized and ready for baby! Next step is to go through all of Emmie's old clothes and see what we have.

I also plan to turn one of our picture frames into a bow holder for the girls. If I ever get around to buying scrapbook paper/ribbon for it! It would look too cute in their bathroom.


So Mother's Day is coming up. This is the card Emmie made for Grandma

We can thank Pinterest for the idea. We were able to write a little note on the back of the hand too :)

and for giggles:

22 weeks

Almost forgot, I'm now 22 weeks 2 days pregnant [22w4d according the the drs]

And I'm starting to feel pregnant....

 

My belly is starting to get in the way. lol. I can't believe I still have 18ish more weeks left. I finally can't wear my regular shirts anymore. Sad day. lol

Ryann is moving A LOT. Her movements are pretty strong I think, you can often see her little kicks from the outside now. Little booger likes to make herself known.

Other than getting a belly, I've got lovely acid reflux. I had it with Emmie, I pretty much have to carry a bottle of antacid around with me. And my pelvic disorder is acting up more. It's going to be AWESOME [feel the sarcasm] when I'm in my 3rd trimester. It's already becoming somewhat difficult to do regular things...atleast I have an awesome husband who helps me out a ton and some good friends who are there is I need them :)

Not too much is going on. We're working on rearranging the bedroom to make more room for Ryann and her things. I'm pretty excited :) I think rearranging stuff- Fish hates it haha. But I figure we should get it done now before I'm pretty much incapable of doing anything :)

Whoo hoo :)

We found this changing table today at D.I. for $12!
