Week 25-Baby is the size of an EGGPLANT!!


I'm officially two thirds of the way through my pregnancy!!!! This week has been pretty good.  I had my 1 hour glucose test, which was higher than doc wanted.  So, I go back on Friday to do the test for 3 hours.  Not looking forward to that, but understand we need to make sure I'm processing sugar the correct way.

This week has also brought some more excitement...we are closing on our first house!!!!!
This is the PERFECT house for us! I am so excited to be able to bring Ellie home to our own home.  So, hopefully by this weekend, we will be all moved in and the nursery decorating can begin!

25 weeks means that if for some reason, I had to give birth, Ellie would be OK.  (Even though I cannot wait to snuggle her, she needs to stay in there for a while longer.) This week, her eyes are beginning to open.  I've read that I can put a flashlight up to my tummy and she'll try to move away from it.  Daddy Josh says that's not nice, but I may try it! Haha.  She's currently about 14 inches long and weighs 2 pounds.  She's not out of room yet, but my belly button is flattening out so she's quickly running out of room in there! :-)  

How far along? 25 Weeks
Total weight gain: Still minus 12!
Maternity clothes? Oh Yes!

Sleep: Some nights are better than others.
Best moment this week: Learning we are closing on our house this week! 
Miss Anything? Mikes Hard Lemonade
Movement: TONS of movement.  Now, I can see my stomach move from the outside! So amazing!

Anything making you queasy or sick: Haven't been sick in a while! YAY!
Gender: sweet baby girl

Belly Button in or out?

Wedding rings on or off? On

Happy or Moody most of the time: So incredibly happy!!!!
