Today was my due date with Baby McMillon #1. I feel so blessed to have my little Flip kicking the mess out of me right now. Those little (and I use the term little very loosely) taps remind me that this kiddo is for real and he's doing just fine. I have never felt more blessed in my life.

This was baby #1. I will never forget him. <3

22 weeks

Here I am, 22 weeks (right). My hair is looking kinda fuzzy...forgive me if I don't care. :) I also have maternity jeans on, but I just pulled the panel down, so it might look kinda weird. I'm just trying to bust a sag is all. Can I just say that the bigger my belly gets, the smaller my boobs look. haha

ugh

Not feeling good today. I had a really weird dizzy spell at 8 am, basically right when I got to work. My stomach has been a little upset all day too. So I came home and rested all day. I still am not feeling real great, but it could be worse.
I just wanted to document that last night (eaaarrly this morning) Mr. Flip got the hiccups. At least I think that's what it was. It was super weird. I would have thought it was waaaay cooler if it was not 330 am. I tell ya that. Guess I better get used to it. :) I have the feeling that 330 am and I will become better acquainted in the not so distant future.

kicks

Last night Justin was laying on my belly. I wanted to see if he could feel Cole kicking, cause he was going to town in there. He couldn't feel them, but he could hear them. Crazy, huh?
I think Cole is not a morning person. The past few mornings he hasn't been too active when I first wake up, where there for a while he was very active at 6:30 am. Now he's learning to sleep in till about 8:00. But at about 9:00 pm, he's partying. I have a night owl on my hands. Watch out!

has anyone seen my lap?

The latest casualty in my pregnancy....my lap. Well, soon anyway. I just noticed that when I cross my legs and bend over to type, my belly sits on my leg. Sweet!

I want some goldfish. Crackers, not actual fish. :)

21 weeks

Well, I've had a realization. I've been cropping my pics down to 4.5 x 2 inches. Pretty soon that will not be big enough to contain my belly. They'll have to be taken from farther away. haha So here are 19, 20, and 21 weeks respectively. I threw in 19 since 20 was not the normal pic.



Flip is a regular little kicking fool these days. It's not at consistent times, but when he starts up, it lasts for a while. At 5 o'clock this morning when I was awake because my sick husband was tearing up some logs, Flip decided to have himself a little disco in my ute. I don't mind it though. I'm sure he does it all night long and I just don't feel it cause I'm still a pretty sound sleeper (knock on wood). But, Justin finally felt him again today. It makes me happy when he gets to feel him. I like to share. :)

Crib

So I bought a crib yesterday. I know it's probably a little early, but I wanted to get it taken care of while I was off work. Besides, who are we kidding? I like to be prepared. Anyway, I put the sheets on and stuff so I can show folks. I bought a striped sheet and a sheet with stars...I put on the striped one and just laid the star one down to see how it looked. Here it is. I really like the crib.

Amanda is going to have Parker any day now. Whoo hoo! I can't wait to meet him. :)
