24 Weeks

I've officially hit the 24 week mark! And definitely have a pronounced baby bump now! 

Truly, I can not believe that 6 months have passed! Or that there's only 16 weeks to go before we meet our baby boy! 

This mama is feeling fabo! I have had a great pregnancy, and while David and I both can't wait to meet our little guy, I will miss being pregnant. I don't feel the exhaustion I did in the first trimester, but definitely feel a little stiff if I've been sitting in the same position for too long. I can feel some sweet little baby kicks pretty often - he's pretty active! And David felt some subtle movement last night for the first time.  I've got to take the glucose test soon - it doesn't sound like much fun. 

He is just over a pound now, and about a foot long - like the length of a banana. He's even got taste buds now too! My eating habits are pretty normal, but I could eat pineapple all day long. I make a lot of strawberry, blueberry, and raspberry smoothies. However, I have enjoyed an extra piece of pound cake or two every now and then! In the beginning  meats like steak and pork were turning me off, but I'm over that too. Over the weekend, I got a pregnancy pillow - its called a Snoogle. Pretty funny name, but super comfy at night for me - and I'm sure it will be amazing as my belly grows more.

We've got a baby bed and bedding on the way, and I found a pretty chest for the nursery too. Now, I need a glider to complete my "big" list. David and I braved Buy Buy Baby on Friday as well, and really got educated on what baby needs. There are so many choices from car seats, to strollers, to bottles, to swings! 

I've tried to keep up with a belly shot every few weeks or so, and until now there really hasn't been much to see. But here I am at my brother's engagement party over the weekend! 

And here are the happy parents-to-be! 

Also on the baby front...

A few weeks ago, my BFF's from college and I all got together in St. Simons at Meredith's house - she welcomed Baby David in November. We spent the weekend passing him around and smothering him with kisses! 

I borrowed this pic from Jill's blog - wanted you to see our fun group

Lauren, Kim, Hollie, Meghan, Me, Jill, Renee, Glenn, Meredith, and baby David

And over our girls' weekend, we got the best surprise - Meghan is expecting too!!!! 

Since Hollie and I are both expecting baby boys in May, we are rooting for some pink in July for Meghan!
