Happy Monday, folks! How was your weekend? We had a great one and celebrated our birthday's (Stephen's is tomorrow!) with Stephen's family. Talk about delicious!! :) On Sunday we didn't do much other than attend church and go to Wal-Mart for pickles. It was so nice to relax and rest up. The only problem with that is the fact that Monday morning is that much harder after a lazy day. Oh well!
I have a confession to make. At this point, I have a hard time thinking about anything other than this precious life growing inside of me. I have been using my "smoke breaks" at work to shop online for all things baby and have even started building registries. I don't smoke, but many people in my department do and I don't think it is fair that they get at least 2 15min breaks per day to engage in the nasty habit. There I said it. Sorry to offend any of my readers who do smoke.
In reference to my above confession, I am working on a baby bucket-list so to speak. It's a list of things that I would love to get done before 1. the baby comes or 2. before I get so fat and uncomfortable that I don't care to move, ha! I should be posting that this week and will followup with it's progress as the pregnancy goes on. Yay! :)
Now, onto a baby bump update:
The above pictures were taken last Friday, which would be 7 weeks, 5 days. I am not sure why, but the images look a little distorted to me...maybe it's the collage app I used on my phone to make 2 photos, 1? Anyways, here you go!
How far along? 8 weeks today!
Size of Baby? Raspberry
Maternity Clothes? Still waiting on my first order to arrive-I am wearing the last pair of jeans that I can button today though. Everything else is too tight to button!
Weight Gain? Not sure, maybe 1 ow 2lbs.
Stretch Marks? Not yet, and hopefully never. Using lotion like crazy!
Gender? Unknown, we will be finding out though!
Movement? Nothing yet, but looking forward to it!
Sleep? No problem there right now! Sleep is good!
Food Cravings? Pickles, chips, pretzels...anything SALTY!
What I Miss? Diet soda and coffee :(
Symptoms? Still just super, super tired. I have some food aversions too...
Best Moment Last Week? Announcing our news on the blog and Facebook. Y'all warmed my heart with your well wishes and congratulations. You sure know how to make a girl feel loved-thank you!
Looking Forward to? Hearing the heartbeat and my doctor’s appointment this week!
Have a great Monday!

I cant believe you're already 8 weeks! Is it going by fast or slow for you?
I laughed when I read your "smoker's break" confession. I totally agree with you!

I agree with you on the smoke break comment! Good for you :) Can't wait to read your baby bucket list.
So cute! Looking forward to bucket list...
SO fun to read these updates each week! I thought you could have some coffee while pregnant??? I never gave up sweet tea and craved it by the end of my pregnancy ;-) hehe Maybe I shouldn't be giving advice if that's a big no-no. Because I never listened to it if it is!
