Preggers


So I realized today that I haven't really recorded anything about this pregnancy...and here I am almost 25 weeks so I thought I should write a few things for the sake of remembering!

How far along? 24....almost 25 weeks
Maternity clothes? Not so much...I can't seem to find where I stored my maternity clothes, so I am just using what fits from my regular wardrobe, which is very quickly diminishing!
Stretch marks? Nope! Yay!
Best moment this week: Just love feeling this little guy move, move, move!
Miss Anything? Being able to fit in clothes, sleeping comfortably.
Movement: Oh yes lots of movements!
Food Cravings: Coconut anything currently, used to be black beans.
Anything making you queasy or sick: Nope, haven't felt sick in a long time!
Gender: Boy!
Labor Signs: No.
Symptoms: Oh boy where to start....the biggest one is HEARTBURN. All. The. Time. Also itchy skin on my legs and belly. Some days I feel like I may itch my skin right off, and this baby will be able to just climb right out =) Braxton hicks on a regular basis as well.
Wedding ring on or off? On!
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy, altho patience runs thin towards bed time...
Looking forward to: Getting some relief from this heartburn....Sydney is starting to walk around the house saying oh man I have heartburn...I'm pretty sure she hears that a lot from me =)

We have a few options for names, but haven't narrowed it down yet. Sydney is very excited to be a big sister, and constantly talks about being a helper when he comes =) I think this 3 year age gap is going to be pretty nice!


***Sorry for the lack of pictures, I am still trying to figure out why blogger won't let me upload them!****

Grass.

Grass



I have such a love/hate relationship with the stuff.

At our house grass = money.

In our house grass = everywhere.

I love it, because if it weren't for the stuff we wouldn't have business. From April to October the stuff provides us with a great income. And I'm grateful for that.

But also from April to October, we have the stuff ALL. OVER. OUR. HOUSE. I sweep and sweep and sweep and it seems I can never get rid of it all.

I just got done sweeping for the 50th time in a week. And the stuff is just still there. Everywhere. I find it in my bed. In our clean laundry. And ALL over our gosh darn house. I get so tired of the stuff. Especially because I loathe sweeping.
But I can'o hate the stuff too much, it brings in the green.

Perfect love/hate relationship.
