Week Twenty-Three

April 9, 2010 by Aliesha

Click here to compare with my photo from last week.

I officially wore my first pair of maternity pants yesterday! Andrea loaned me a big bag of maternity clothes to borrow, and I wore a pair of the jeans yesterday. (The skirt and green top pictured above are also on loan.) Thanks, Andrea!!

Baby girl continues to be active. I read that she is now the size of a papaya, but I saw one of those at Fresh Market yesterday and I just don’t think she’s quite that large! I can definitely tell that she is growing, though.

I have lots of energy during the day, but at night I just crash and feel like I could sleep for hours and hours. I’ve had a little trouble with waking up a lot at night (for apparently no reason), but hopefully that is just due to sleeping in a new house and getting adjusted to new sounds.

I haven’t done anything for the nursery this week, but I am hoping to paint the trim soon. I’ll post pictures of the room so far once I get the trim finished.

We just realized today that we’ll have a baby girl in our arms in around 4 more months!

We are thankful that God has blessed us with a healthy pregnancy so far!

    Arent those skirts the best?! I have had those for YEARS!!! and love them. They fit not pregnant 2 which is nice and they are such a light weight jersey that you can wear it all summer and not get to hot. Perfect length 2.
