16 week bumpdate!







How far along? 16 weeks

Total weight gain: No idea and probably a lot because this holiday season is all the food I love. 

Maternity clothes? Yes maternity clothes with some regular tops still mixed in

Stretch marks? No new ones. Using lotion nightly after my shower!

Sleep: Pretty good. Still with my pregnancy pillow but my back now had been acting up so it sometimes takes me forever to get a comfortable position

Best moment this week: Finishing up our Christmas Decorations. Watching Grayson hang the ornaments was amazing he loved looking at them all.

Miss Anything? No but I know the end is near on doing a lot of my normal things and I will miss that.

Movement: Little flutters here or there it’s very sporadic.

Food cravings: Grilled chicken César salad and double stuffed Oreos, cheese quesadillas and BLT subs minus the T because holy heartburn. 

Anything making you queasy or sick: No smoothies and the smell of lunchmeat is still horrible to me

Gender: December 28 is our official sonogram
Labor Signs: No

Symptoms: Round ligament and sciatic nerve has come along. It lasted for two days and then the babies moved and now it’s starting to feel better.

Belly Button in or out? Half in half out. My doctor so kindly refers to it as the popper and said in the next few weeks it will be out. 

Wedding rings on or off? on

Happy or Moody most of the time: HAPPY!

Looking forward to: Christmas festivities!

Grayson: He told me this week he just wanted brothers not any sisters, but if he has brothers they cannot touch his toys. Ha! And so it begins already.

Our next appointment is on the 22nd and then we have our sonogram on the 28th. So I’m just looking forward to enjoying the holidays and then getting to know who these two babies are that are growing in my belly.

What's Up Wednesday

I love when there is prompted writing. About everything! Linking up with Mix and Match Mama ! What we are eating Chicken and lots of it. My husband makes the best chicken quesidilla's ever. He uses taco seasoning (homemade to avoid a ton of sodium) and whole wheat tortilla's. I love them we have them at least once a week! What I'm reminiscing about Our anniversary trip last year. It was so much fun just the two of us and I know we won't be doing it this year because our focus is paying off debt so it will be a date night. I love Cleveland and loved the Rock n Roll Hall of fame! What I'm loving Real Housewives of NYC. The B is back and I love her! What we've been up to Family time and organizing! I got my closet almost all cleaned out and Grayson's is pretty much done I just need to pick up a few more bins to pack away old clothes! Spring cleaning at it's finest! What I'm dreading Michael play...

A nice little sweet spot

The sweet spot…. We seem to have hit one. I feel like we have not been in a sweet spot since the twins were about 6 months old. You know before they were mobile and can get into a ton of mischief. When kids are 0-6 months they still like to be held they eat mostly bottles and they mostly just stay in one spot. No issues, you can go places and even though you have to pack up your whole house to be prepared you can relax. And if you are in my family someone is always willing to hold or feed or change a baby. 7-months to 2.5 years old is what I refer to as the lost years. You have so many things you have to do for them they are not potty trained and they are mobile and get into EVERYTHING. Going outside is more work than its worth and with twins they scatter in opposite directions. Three on one is so hard handle in big open spaces. I would often find myself skipping outside time because the work was just too much for me. When the twins turned 3 and Grayson was 6 it felt like we had a ...
