So, 25 weeks today. I went to the doctor's last Thursday - so far, I have put on only 12 pounds - WAY better than when I was pregnant with my boys (8 1/2 and 5), and I measured at 26 weeks - a little ahead, but I was that way with the boys too, so I'm not worried about it. Feeling really good overall, except for the heartburn - oh heartburn, why must you always show up?
Shannon and I brought the boys with us, and we all got to hear the baby's heartbeat - they LOVED it - and the look on Shannon's face made me wish i had a video camera, just to capture his smile.
He has gotten to feel the baby kick a couple times now, including once when he was resting his head on my belly - he got booted right in the ear! GOOD BABY!!! LOL
Now we have to get the baby to kick when the boys can feel it - which will be a tall order, since Bun isn't really active til after they are in bed.
And my future sister-in-law had her baby-shower on Saturday - and given that I love to sew, I had agreed to make, as my gift, a crib bedding set. I have done this for both of my sisters as well, and its always a much-appreciated gift. Because of college, I couldn't work on it any sooner, so Friday night I was up until 2:30 sewing. Went to bed with only about an hour of work left, got up in the morning to finish it, and of course, my stupid sewing machine decides to screw up. GRRRR Thankfully, it was just machine quilting the comforter, which was the only part i was giving at the shower (who would ooohhh and aawww over curtain panels? LOL) So I gave it to her anyways, and then took it right back!!
I checked out the sewing machine this morning, and of course, managed to fix the problem that railroaded me on Saturday - in about 2 minutes (of course). So I have been sewing all the other stuff for the set. I want to get it all done before we have family night on thursday so I can give it to her - and so I can start on the stuff for my own baby! lol
I was going to take pics of my progress so far, but my camera is dead, so you all have to wait til tomorrow.
