24 and 25 Weeks!

Pregnancy Highlights...

How Far Along: I am currently 25 weeks... getting closer to meeting our sweet boy!

Size Of Baby: Baby Hornaday is the size of a head of cauliflower.

Total Weight Gain/Loss: Last time I went to the doctor I had gained 10 pounds. We have another appointment this week so I will have a better idea of how much I weigh now. Not that I really want to know :) HA!

Maternity Clothes: James and I went shopping last weekend and I bought several pairs of maternity pants. I got a few dress pants for work and two more pairs of jeans. I also bought a few maternity tops, but I wear my normal tops for the most part!

Gender: It's a boy!!! We are SO excited!

Movement: I will never get tired of feeling my boy kick and move around. It's so precious to me! He was kicking a lot during a math lesson this week, so I told my class he must love learning math like they do. A little later one of my boys came up and said, "Mrs. Hornaday, I think your baby is going to come out a mathematician!" A few of my kids got to feel him kick this week too, which was really fun for them and me!

Sleep: I'm still sleeping pretty well. It takes me a little longer to get comfortable and I usually wake up once to use the bathroom.

What I Miss: Aside from my clothes fitting, nothing really!

Cravings: Orange juice.

Symptoms: My back still really hurts and I have felt really tired this week.

Best Moment This Week: For the first time, this week I had two strangers ask me when I was due. I got so excited! My aunt bought us a cradle and it came in this week so James was able to put it together. I just can't wait to have our little one sleeping next to us in his cradle! We also decided on crib bedding this week! We ordered part of the bedding so we can pick out paint and start painting the nursery. We've also started cleaning out the room we're using for the nursery, and I hope to be able to work on the room more this week!
