Pregnancy Highlights
How Far Along: 25 weeks, 5 days
Size of baby: Pearce is 13 1/2 inches long from head to heels, he weighs about a pound and a half, about the size of a rutabaga.
Weight gain: I think I've gained about 20 pounds so far...yikes, that seems like a lot! I just have no idea what weight I started at. Oh well!
Maternity Clothes: LOVING them. Also, I love putting on my stretchy yoga pants when I get home from school.
Gender: BOY! Pearce Matthew
Movement: YES! His movements are definitely more controlled now. I always feel him when I get in bed for the night. This morning, he woke me up practicing his acrobatics. He can wake me up anytime and I won't care at all :) I love the constant, daily reminder that he's with me.
Sleep: I have to get up several times to go to the bathroom, but I can always go back to sleep.
Symptoms: Reflux....YUCK! No heartburn yet. I also have a spot in my upper back that gets sore as the day goes on. It doesn't hurt too bad, just annoying. BUT I DON'T CARE!
Cravings: I was at the store a couple days ago and decided to go by the bakery. This giant pan of cinnamon rolls caught my eye. They looked soooo yummy, so I got them. But, as I was on my way to check out, I spotted another stand of them and saw a pan that had way more icing....I got that one :)
What I miss: Ummm...nothing!
Best moment this week: Got the bedding in!!!
What I am looking forward to: The nursery furniture is getting delivered in a few weeks. I can't wait to see how it looks in the nursery! I am just so anxious to see it all put together.
How's that scar looking? It's kind of reddish now. I can't wait to see what it looks like in 3 more months. My stomach is going to be one heck of a road map!
Belly Button: Very shallow and fun to play with!
We got the bedding in today. I am totally in love with it. It's even more beautiful than I imagined. I picked this bedding out from Polka Tot Designs and my wonderful mother-in-law purchased it for us. Several of the blogs I read have gotten their bedding from here and I just think they have the cutest things! As soon as I saw this bedding, I knew it was IT. What's really funny is that the name of it is "Pearce." See, it was fate :) I got the bumpers, crib sheet, blanket, bed skirt, and a Roman shade. You can see the wall color a little bit in the pics. The wall color looks absolutely perfect! It's from Sherwin Williams and is called Tradewind.
Here's his monogram. I love the little scrolls on either side.
This is a close-up of the fabric. I love the soft colors. I also love that it is very "baby" but still "boyish" if that makes sense.
This is the bedskirt. The tan fabric on top is actually a pinstripe with the paisley along the bottom border.
This is the blanket. It's paisley on one side with ivory minky dot fabric on the other side. It is sooooo soft!
This is one of the side bumpers, but you can see the wall color. It is a perfect match with the blues in the fabric!
Now, hurry up and get here furniture so I can put all of this together and get my baby boy's room ready!!
I love his bedding! The room is going to look so perfect...just like you envisioned it!
ReplyDeleteThe crib bedding is every bit as beautiful as we thought it was going to be! It's absolutely perfect!! It's so-o-o soothing and restful looking. I can't wait to see it in the room. I just think that it was meant to be for our little Pearce. That's why they named it that!
