25 Weeks Pregnant with Will

By

Pardon my crazy hair. It was too hot to have down.
Baby’s Size: Eggplant
How far along: 25 Weeks
Total weight gain: So… 13 lbs. Put on another 2 lbs this week. I seriously weighed myself before bed the other night and was one thing. Then weighed myself in the morning and was up 2 pounds. How does that happen?!? Never dropped back down either. I wish I would have thought to measure myself both with Kenzie and now, though. It would be interesting to see my weight gain vs. measurements each time around. I think that I am carrying slightly different this time. At this point with Kenzie I had started to gain weight all over. While I still presume that is coming, it is taking longer to get here this time. This time (as I hear is common with boys), Steven and I have decided that it is difficult to tell I am pregnant from the back. He is seriously hanging out all in front at this point. We think that I am definitely "bigger" this time around though as far as belly goes. Kenzie gave me a more rounded belly whereas Will is just making me jut out farther. 

Comparison at 25 Weeks: Will (left) & Kenzie (right)
Sleep:  It’s been okay. My mind has been going a lot at night about various things and that is keeping me up. I worry a lot, regardless and for some reason have been doing more worrying lately than normal.   
Maternity Clothes: Yep! 
Food cravings: Nothing too much at the moment. 
Symptoms I HAVE: Heartburn. Still. It’s never ending. I’m also getting this weird vibrating feeling periodically right under my ribs. If anyone knows what that might be… do share. It doesn’t hurt. Just annoying. It comes and goes. I’m tired too but that could always be related to Kenzie.      
Stretchmarks:  No new ones but more and more old ones are turning red. 
Doctor’s Appointment:  6 days away!!
Movement:  ALL. THE. TIME. I wish I could figure out how he is positioned in there. He likely changes positions frequently because he isn’t cramped yet but it would be interesting to know if I am feeling a kick, punch, headbutt, or what.    
Belly Button (In or Out): In.
Wedding Ring (On or Off): On.
Labor Signs: None.
Gender: Boy!  
Happy or Moody Most of the Time: Still pretty moody. I’ve been crying a lot more lately for no good reason.
Best moment of the week: Celebrating birthdays and the 4th of July. Kenzie experienced her first fireworks (which she calls “firetrucks”) and she LOVED it. She did awesome all afternoon and evening at the Lake Eola event too despite having to use random porta-potties and everything. So proud of how well she is doing.     
What I’m looking forward to: Seeing Aunt Juju, Uncle E and Baby Evie this weekend!
What I miss: Being able to lay on my back and not having heartburn.

Eight is Great!

By
Today Kenzie is EIGHT! It's so crazy. We have an 8 year old. Only two years away from double digits. A third grader. A girl that is quickly becoming a preteen. There is only a year left (technically) until that is officially the stage we are in. Though I have to say... she acts more and more like an actual preteen every day of her life. She's too much. We often joke that she is 8 going on 28, but in all honesty, she is an old soul and often acts much older than her years. At 8-years-old, Kenzie... - Is still the friendliest kid I know. She loves with her whole heart. She hates to hurt anyone's feelings. The downside is that her feelings get hit hard when someone isn't nice to her. We have had to deal with that on occasion, especially in the last year when we had a run in with a girl that Kenzie thought was her friend but she ended up being not really nice to Kenzie in the long run. We learned as parents that the "mean girl" stage starts early. Kenzie...

Young Summer of Fun - Bucket List Update (Week 11)

By
It's the final countdown! We officially have about 2 weeks left until the end of "summer" and therefore the end of our bucket list. We managed to check something off the list this week. We have just a couple left. There are two things that I do not believe we will be able to do, but I think getting everything but two things done is pretty awesome. We also added on quite a few fun things that I didn't actually add to the list and still have a few more fun things planned over the next 2 weeks. We will see how it all goes. Anyway, this week has been fun. Tiring. But fun. This was Kenzie's first week of VPK. And let me tell you... she rocked it. She is LOVING it. I know we are only 1 week in but I am still so glad to see her loving school again and doing so well already. I'm not going to recap her first day or most of her first week, but if you are interested, you can check out the post HERE . She did decide to try to wear every one of her new outfits this week....

Friday Favorites: Summer Bucket List Edition

By
This week's Friday Favorite isn't a product we love but rather our long anticipated (in our family) Summer Bucket List. This is something we have been doing for about 3 years running now. We sometimes keep a running bucket list of sorts for fall and spring too. We also always have an advent calendar of activities for the month of December. I think the summer list is my favorite though. Summer is a favorite season around this house. It means pool time, beach time, and a lot of other fun things that happen like Vacation Bible School and swimming lessons. This year we have a few new things and some oldie but goodies. Technically we have quite a bit of time until summer officially begins, but we are so excited for summer that we decided to make the list now. We also decide to start summer post Memorial Day so our activities will begin in about 6 weeks. We are super excited to have a few new things this year as well as keeping a couple of things that we didn't get around to ...
