24 weeks

I'm actually into my 25th week, but I just didn't have the energy to post it yesterday. I am excited to use my sticky belly sticker this week!!

The Belly:

Thank you Erika for the Sticky Bellies! Lydia's Boutique is my favorite children's shoppe!

Hi Point: Celebrating a sweet friend at her baby shower! It is her first and she's having a little boy. We enjoyed comparing bellies and trying to decide if mine looks like hers (meaning it could be a boy) or if I look different enough to be carrying a girl. Her vote is boy. :)

Lo Point: Bra Shopping at Motherhood Maternity. I'll just say it was depressing. No one wants to hear, "We don't make anything larger than that in your band size." Just dandy. This may have resulted in a few tears last night, which Nick just thought was silly. Of course he doesn't see this as a problem!

Siblings: I'm at the point where I can no longer comfortably pick Lilly-Belle up...and lap space is shrinking by the day. This has been an adjustment for her and part of me feels guilty when I can't pick her up or carry her, but I know I need to keep the lifting light to be safe.

This really has nothing to do with ButterBean, but I must share.
On Sunday morning, as we're getting out of the car for Sunday School, Colson says, "Is this weird? I pooted and it smelled like a taco."

After I quit laughing, I told him it may be because of what he ate for dinner last night (we had Don Juans).

Still puzzled, he responded, "But I ate that taco Yesterday!"  Silly boy! If ButterBean is a boy then he'll have someone to teach him all of the bad boy habits and if it's a girl then she'll just be annoyed by her stinky brother. :)

Cravings: Smores Poptarts, Coffee, Candy (the candy jars in my room at school have not fared well this week) Just keeping it healthy.

Lbs: +21

Looking Forward To: I know it's a few weeks away, but I'm already looking forward to "fair food". It's a pregnant woman's dream...funnel cakes, cotton candy, caramel apples, roasted corn. I can't wait!
