24 Weeks

Today, Alex and I had our 24 week appointment for Baby Boy! Dr. H told me that I had gained some weight since the last time I came in and told me to make sure I drank a lot of water with the weather being so hot! Last time we went to the doctor, I was measuring 20 weeks at just 19 weeks but this appointment, I am measuring right at 24 weeks! We heard Baby Boy's heartbeat which was at 142! All in all, everything looks great! Dr. H said that we are now on cruise control and that it will fly by until the last month, then it'll just drag! {BOOOOOO!}. The nurse gave me a nice little "goodie" bag equipped with some orange drink, nursing freebie with breast milk bottles, and our Hospital Registration form! Crazy! It's hard to believe that we only have 16 weeks left until we meet our son. I haven't really had any cravings anymore, Grouchos was a huge craving at first but not so much anymore. I need to get one of those Boppy pillows because I am starting to feel real uncomfortable at times when I am lying down.  Here is a photo of my belly today..crazy!

Happy Birthday Emory!

Happy Birthday to the sweetest, most beautiful 5 year old I know! I can't believe she is already five! It seems as though yesterday, we were welcoming her at the hospital, Amy and Aaron's first born, Mom and Dad's first grandchild! She is a princess for sure, but it also helps that she is the only girl and we will see if she stays the only granddaughter for the time being, come October! Happy Birthday sweet girl! Quit growing up so fast! We love you!!
