But things are going really well on this journey to our sweet Jacob!!! Last Thursday, I officially hit the 20 week (1/2 way) mark!!!!!
It is so hard to believe that we are already 1/2 way through!!! It seems like it has flown by in many aspects, but also creeping by in others. I am still nauseated pretty much 24/7, but have very few bouts of actual vomiting anymore which I am so thankful for!
Because I didn't do a post at 19 weeks, I am including both my 19 and 20 week bump pictures on this post...... So here they are!!!!!
For the first time I think I finally am seeing a difference in the bump pictures!! It looks like I finally popped at 20 weeks!! The most exciting thing that has happened is that I finally feel sweet baby moving around!!! At first I wasn't sure if that was really it, but I gently pushed in on my far right side and he sure did push right back! It was such a surreal moment! That happened on the exact day I was 19 weeks along, April 23rd. Now at 20 weeks and 3 days, he is moving everywhere. Even as I sit here and type this, he is kicking all around! What a glorious feeling I never thought I would ever get a chance to experience. I am just so humbled and so grateful for this gift!!!!
In other news, we have just about got Jacob's room completed. The last finishing touches I purchased this past weekend when out shopping with Sweetness. We found the perfect frames for the pictures I ordered on Etsy to go over his crib. So we just need to get those hung up and then I will take pictures and do a post on here to show you guys how adorable it all turned out!!! It really is my favorite room in the house right now!!
But not to leave out my sweet Chloe, we have also redone her room and rearranged it as well. In fact just yesterday I ordered her new twin bed from Pottery Barn Kids, after we spent most of Saturday looking in every furniture store around our house and no cute white wood twin beds were to be found!!! We could not believe how hard it was to find one that we liked! Here is a picture of the bed we ordered for her........
And then we ordered this amazing bedding set from Pottery Barn Kids as well. I got this gorgeous ruffle quilt, pillow shams and adorable matching mermaid sheets to complete her new bedroom's look!!!
Don't you just LOVE these colors?!?!? I saw it and HAD to have it for my girl. I thought it was cute and sweet but not overly babyish and will be a good set to carry her well into her childhood years!! I have always wanted to get her a Pottery Barn Kids bedroom but never would spend the money, but I finally caved in and just did it, with the help of some coupons, and got what I really wanted and I am so happy I did!!! The bedding is amazing in person!!!! I'll snap a few pictures and post them once we get her bed and get it all set up next week!!!! I can't wait!!!
But that is about all the news for now. I am enjoying my new job, out and about meeting new people each day and getting out of the house!!! It's also nice to have spending money now to get cute things for my precious little children and to begin our savings account again!!!
Sweetness has been so wonderful, as he always is, while I have been out of work and so sick in the beginning of this pregnancy. He really does treat me like a queen, waiting on me hand and foot while taking amazing care of Chloe in the evenings when I need to rest, all the while working 40+ hours a week!! I am so blessed in this life to share it with this man I love so much and loves us so much!!!
