27 weeks and 4 days

Can you believe that we only have 12 more weeks and 3 more days until she is here! 
I have a new obsession with laying down and watching my whole belly shake when she kicks. It makes me so so excited. She is kicking a ton... sometimes it hurts! 
So we have been going through a lot lately, we found out she had a large cyst in her brain a few months ago and it was stressful for us! I was so worried about our little angel. We have been praying for it to go away and today when we went to the ultra sound the doctor informed us that they couldn't find it anywhere!! It is such a blessing that it has gone away with out causing any deformities to her! 
Today I also had to have my Glucose drink and stay at the doctor for an hour after I finished drinking it.
Can I just say it was disgusting! I hated drinking it and my sweet husband laughed at me as I gaged through the pain of drinking it. But it will all be worth it in the end!

How far along: 27 weeks & 4 days!
Weight Gain: probably about 20 lbs
Maternity Clothes: Yes but I pretty much live in my Lululemon clothes
Sleep: I have a tough time sleeping right now, I toss and turn all night long.
Best moment of the week: The cyst in her brain is GONE!!! 
Food Cravings: Chocolate! Great... bring on the lbs..
Labor signs: Nope!
Belly button In/Out? I don't really know. haha. Its more out than in thats for sure.
Wedding rings: On
Looking forward to: Seeing my mom and grandma and family and friends at my baby shower!! It has been so long since I have seen my momma! She hasn't even seen me since I have been preggers.
Baby size: 16 In. 2.5 LBS (about the size of a head of cauliflower!)

I will post belly pictures asap! xoxo
Thank you everyone for your love and support for Baby Anderson.

Also we are having a hard time finding a name! Let me know if you have any cute ideas!
We are so blessed!! Thank you all for your prayers!!

22 Weeks! 17 more to go!


22 Weeks 2 Days
She now weighs 1.2 lbs! 

Okay, so I suck and haven't blogged since I was 19 weeks! But guess what! I'm passed half way!! YAY! I now only have 17 weeks left! I am getting so excited. So over the past three weeks a lot has happened. The most important is that she is moving a ton and she is healthy! At our 20 week check up and half way ultra sound we got to see all the cute little parts of her. Her little feet, arms and legs. We also got to see her brain! It was so cool. It feels more and more real every day!! I absolutely love being able to feel her, it is the most amazing experience. 

I feel so truly blessed that I am able to have this little girl in my tummy! I already love her so much and I am so excited for her to get here! June... Please hurry up!!

At my 20 week apt my doctor informed me that I have gain 11 lbs total! He says I am right where I should be! YAY! 

How far along: 22 weeks
Weight Gain: 13 lbs
Maternity Clothes: Yes I bought a few skirts so I have some for church. I also have a few cute shirts from target maternity! 
Sleep: I am having a hard time adjusting to not sleeping on my tummy. So lots of tossing and turning for me!
Best moment of the week: She is moving a ton! Yay! She moves a lot at night and in the morning! :)
Food Cravings: FRUIT. Every kind. 
Labor signs: Nope
Belly button In/Out? I think its in limbo. Its still in but having a hard time staying in I think. hah
Wedding rings: ON
Looking forward to: Having Curt be able to feel her kicking!
Baby size: 11 1/2 in.

We are still having the hardest time figuring out what to name her. Any suggestions welcome.

Okay so Curt and I haven't bought anything for our baby girl yet so i'm kinda stressing! I guess the first thing i'm gonna do is make a list of everything I need and then start the fun shopping. 

Here is a profile picture from our 20 week apt.
Below that is her two legs.
The last picture are her cute feet!

18 Weeks!

ITS A GIRL!!

Gosh so Curt and I both for some reason thought we were having a little boy... little did we know that our baby would be a girl! We are so excited for this, especially me! I didn't grow up with a sister or anything so i'm so excited to bring a new girl into our family! I'm so excited for this opportunity. I get more and more excited every single day. It was fun going to the ultra sound and seeing how much she has grown since the last one! This picture is from my 16th week so i'll be getting another one around my half way mark! 

How far along: 18 weeks 1 day
Total weight gain/loss: No clue! Will find out at my next apt!
Maternity Clothes: I just bought my first few things. I bought three skirts so I have something that actually fits for church. I also bought a belly band so I can wear it over my jeans with the button undone. I bought one pair of maternity jeans with the stretchy waist, these are still big for me so thats nice! 
Best moment this week: I FELT HER KICK!!
Miss anything: Yes my cute clothes that I can't fit into! Also all my energy!
Movement: Yes!!! I have only felt her kick twice in one day.. nothing since! Waiting patiently for her to kick soon!
Food cravings: Chocolate, cheese, and lemonade!!
Have you started to show yet? Yep! I have noticed over the last couple weeks I have gotten a lot bigger.
Belly button: In
Wedding rings on or off? On
Looking forward to: Feeling more movement and seeing her again at our next ultra sound January 12th!
Size of baby: Size of a Mango!

Ideas from cute ways to dress her, to the first pictures I want to take and how to think of fun party ideas. I love pinterest. Here are a few ideas that I love:

Well everyone I pretty sure its safe to say that I haven't been sick at all for over a week! ( Hopefully i'm not speaking to soon!) But I am feeling great! I'm finally getting my energy back and wanting to get back to working out everyday! 

Also I got a phone call from my doctor and we set up an Ultrasound for next wednesday at 330. I am so excited because he is going to be telling us the sex! Oh my goodness, I am so excited! So i'm trying to decide if I should have the doctor write it down in a card for me and not tell us. That way Curtis and I can open the card on Christmas morning.. but my hubby doesn't really want to wait that long! What do you think I should do?! It's a hard decision, I think it would be hard to wait but the wait would be worth it and also we could open it with family there with us! 

Anyways, I'm really glad that I created this blog because now I have somewhere to express my excitement and cute ideas I want to try when the little one is here! So I hope you all don't mind me venting and expressing my excitement on here! :)

Pictures coming soon! 
XOXO
