25 Weeks - Is that... a stretch mark?!
.... or maybe I scratched myself. Ya! That's what I did, scratch myself. Yesterday I found a "scratch" on the left side of my belly. [Update: all the previous prego's I asked about this mysterious "scratch" say oh no you will definately know if it is a stretch mark... More to come.]
I'm feeling more baby head (or butt) and arm or leg rolls, and I think at times I can feel hiccups. My body has been completely taken over; nothing functions the way it used to (you mommies know what I'm talking about). And what's up with this acid reflux stuff!?! Gross! I think I've been getting into the uncomfortable stage.... I know, it only gets worse from here. Getting a little more tired lately, I mean whole days just fly by and that nite I'm like what did I do today? Need to exercise so if anyone knows of a heated pool or needs a walking buddy please come drag my hinny out of the house! Seriously!
Well, sorry I haven't seen or spoken to anyone lately, we have been extrememly busy at the house. Joey has completely gutted the kitchen - gone. Torn down the walls between the kitchen and living room, pulled off the sheetrock and insulation in the kitchen, living room, and dining room, tore out the closet in the carport and is now in process of building up the floor and framing in a laundry room. Everyone and their brother that wanted to take a sledge hammer to the walls; sorry, you missed your chance. We called, no one answered except for Robby Bateh. He bagged up all the 'stuff' drywall and insulation which was quite a job, so far about 90+ bags... and they are heavy (Joey had to bribe the garbage guys to take off so many). It has been interesting so far as we have found some oddities on how the house was built and some extra doors and walls and it makes you wonder how the house was before. The buildout of the laundry and floor have been like putting a puzzle together trying to match up new and old and Joe's dad Ed has been a tremendous help with that. Let us also thank Joe's cuz Mike for structure, layout, and design advise and drawings. Also special thanks to Joe's mama for bringing over dinner all those nites. Still a lot of work ahead, but boy does it feel great to finally get started! I never knew I would love to live in dust, dirt, clutter, and chaos while pregnant! Seriously, if you saw what was on top of the old cabinets you would like it how it is now better!
On a sad note, I missed Biketober Fest last weekend.... I know I would have fit in quite well with that crowd (pregnant chick on the back of a bike), but I just didn't want everyone to know how much of a redneck I am......

22-1/2 Weeks - Don't eat the last brownie!!!!
Or this might happen!
Sunday (Uncle Stevie's) birthday marks the start of the symphony of destruction! Place your bets on if it'll be down before baby arrives! We've been really busy the last few days mainly with house stuff; on one end - destruction, on the other - 'lining the nest' shopping and buying furniture (for us, we still do not have bedroom funiture. Our matress is on the floor and I use an aquarium for a night stand - it makes me crazy!) it'll be here in 2 weeks so I need to get a very large area rug and paint those walls.
We also celebrated our 2 year anniversary! Just think, 2 years ago we were in Costa flying thru forests drinking Caprihnia's!
The baby has been trying out new tricks, (s)he now knows how to tap dance and has found how
to kick my bladder....now on to the TMI section of our post: I swear it felt like thumping on a water balloon inside my belly, weird.
Mama getting a little more tired and somewhat short tempered lately (you may have noticed in my previous posts).
