Tell us your favorite thing about your pregnancy this week.

What has been the most surprising thing about this pregnancy?

Random Question of the Week:
Are you already planning on having another baby? ~We are totally just focused on this pregnancy and getting through the rest of it! We have a 10 year old and a 6 year old already, so this little baby is both of us and for right now that is enough for us. ♥ We will, however, make a decision not too long after this baby is born since we're definitely not getting any younger!

Daisies and Ladybugs

My favorite flowers are gerbera daisies and I want to build the nursery around that so.... I have been on the hunt for the right bedding.

I found these wall "stickers" and an indoor window box that G is going to build for the nursery. I will paint it green, I think. So the 2nd picture is just the idea --I cannot stand TOO much pink, but I want a little.

I will put these on the wall:

I am IN LOVE with this window box idea and am so excited for it!!!! (Ours will not be pink though!)  I will also "plant" silk gerbera daisies in the box and yes, we'll have the awning too.


Here are my two beddings that I have narrowed down to:
I love them both and both have the colors I love in them...

Daisy:

Ladybug:

16 weeks ♥

How far along are you?
16 weeks

-Weight gain/loss? 
 I did only gain one, yes ONE additional pound for a grand total of TWO this pregnancy! Water helps, I'm sure and eating better, so my goal is to continue after the baby's born and get this extra weight I've been carrying OFF!

What symptoms are you experiencing?
At the moment, heartburn --yuck!
headaches
fatigue

How are you feeling?
tired, moody :(

Any Dr. appointments/ultrasounds/tests this past week and how did they go?
Had an appointment Monday 2/22 and it went well. Quick. Heard the baby's heartbeat and scheduled the anatomy ultrasound for March 22. The doctor also said we'll do growth scans every 4 weeks to make sure she's growing appropriately.

Anything big happening in your personal life (moving, work related, family, etc.)?
We're actually considering finding a new house, so we have just begun looking, which is exciting and scary all at once!
In the last few weeks we have had an upheaval with our custodial time with R, so that.

Any belly pics or ultrasound photos from this week?

Any food cravings?
Terrible.

Favorite thing about your pregnancy this week.
Hearing her heartbeat!

What has been the most surprising thing about this pregnancy?
Honestly, how quickly it feels like it is going at times... 16 weeks already????

Random Question of the Week:
Have you experienced "Baby Brain"?
I cannot remember anything. If you know me, you know how detrimental that is. It's super disturbing to me!
