24 weeks

Boy oh Boy

We may have a feisty one on our hands for sure.

He may or may not have inherited that from Mommy.

We went for a check up on Thursday, he was NOT happy when trying to listen to his heartbeat.

We heard plenty of kicks and watched him little shoot from one side to the other. 

Finally, after a little hide and seek, the doctor decided his heart was just fine.  

Collin also scored an awesome toy for his room this weekend, from none other than Cracker Barrel. We fell in love with some old model airplane ride ons, but not so crazy about $100 for them. We turned the corner and found a sock monkey rocking horse instead, on clearance of course!

I have officially gotten to the full blown pregnancy symptoms stage.  Waking up all times of the night, having him camp out on my bladder, full blown exhaustion, and swelling like a balloon if it gets above 70.  I just have to laugh at myself and keep going. 

This week is going to be a trying one for us as a family.  Scotty took a new job that will move us home! FINALLY!! So far we have been beyond blessed. Everything has worked out beautifully.  The down side is, Scotty will be leaving on Monday to start his new job, and I will still be here. 26 weeks round. Alone.  It won't be too bad. I will be flying home for a Spring Break after only 4 days.  Then we will be back and forth, mom and Emily will be coming to stay too.  And I will get to move home at 34 weeks so it really won't be that long at all. I am thankful it has worked out so well.  I know I will be fine, but I hate that he will miss even a second of it all. 

Since he will be leaving on Monday, we decided to go ahead and schedule our 3D/4D ultrasound for this weekend so we could enjoy it together. I am super excited.  He didn't show off much at our 20 week ultrasound and we didn't get a good profile shot.  I have high hopes this time around, and I just love seeing him. Of Course.  The way he moves all day we may not get any good shots of him, but instead an action filled video.  

My shower is also coming up while I am at home for Spring Break, I am more excited than I thought I would be.  I guess since I haven't seen anyone it will be exciting to see everyone and have the shower.  I've also held off on shopping until we see what all we get so I will be given the green light to shop afterwards.
