18 Weeks

Wednesday, October 31, 2012


I'm having some of the symptoms they are saying comes with this month.... like increase in hunger... heck yes! Backaches and dreaming of puppies o.0 Never dreamed of puppies with my girls it was funny. Also dreaming of food too lol. And because of not sleeping good at night i've been terribly tired during the day. Napping while the girls nap kinda sucks cause it my one good time during the day to get things done... or watch grown up TV shows hehe. But i have felt like i have to have naps. Like right now it's 9:30am and i feel like i am about to pass out... which i might do, sometimes the girls let me snooze for a bit while they watch cartoons.

Been feeling the baby a lot... mostly at night after dinner but also sometimes in the morning.

Oh my... i think i have to go lay down.... pardon me!

Christmas Houses In Progress

Thursday, October 25, 2012

Inspiration:

I took this ladies idea and since i'm not a Halloween person, i decided to switch it to a Christmas house. I ordered most of my supplies from Hobby Lobby's online store on Monday and today I got my package. It was only like $3.95 shipping and i still got to use the 40% off coupon, so i think it was worth it if i calculated what i would have spent in gas!

Here is what i got:
The three houses came in a set, then i got two sizes of miniature Christmas trees, some miniature wreaths for over the doors, some miniature Christmas lights and then some glitter glue sticks :)

First step is to pain them a base color. The tutorial has you use spray paint and in black. I didn't want to spend more money on spray paint so i used a foam brush and my acrylic white paint.


So i have them all painted on the outside and i painted the inside of the big house, thinking about the light reflection of the candle inside... but i didn't on the other two.... i may go back and paint the inside of those to for safe measure.

See the popsicle sticks on my paper? I cut the bottoms to be flat and i'm thinking of painting them white and using them as a white picket fence for the big house. We will see how that works. The way i am thinking of doing it sounds like a big headache to me... we shall see!

Had to stop for now because it's dinner time. I'll do more later!

Possible Gifts

Gift ideas for the girls. Trying to keep links so i don’t have to search again. I want to turn a dresser i have into a little bakery display for the girls but i don’t want to buy a bunch a stuff until i get to working on it cause i am a procrastinator! I want to also build a wooden three tier dessert display.

Some of the other items would be the kitchen set hubby is building the girls.

Potatoes!


A big surprise! I hadn't been out there since i became preggo and felt terrible.... i just gave it up! Figured everything had died down. Not only where their potatoes but also there was nice looking cherry tomatoes too. Fun to find a little surprise back there.

This is only half of the potato bed and i didn't dig down to far cause i started getting stomach cramps. Not use to to much exercise. I'll have to go out and do more!

Definitely having the increase in appetite and the headaches issue the websites say come with this period of pregnancy. I don't remember getting so hungry with my girls... or having these headaches! Crazy!

I am feeling the little guy a lot more lately and it's getting stronger. It's fun. Bob has tried to feel but i told him it's to early for him to feel it, plus he wiggles his hand to much when he puts it on there to feel. You got to be still and focus on feeling it, silly man :)

Good Sunday

Monday, October 22, 2012

Yesterday (Sunday) Bob decided we would miss church so we could sleep in. We hate missing but we both really needed some extra sleep.
It was so nice to wake up in the morning and there be my hubby! I had that Friday morning too since there was no school. Very weird but very nice. Sunday's i usually get up before him so yah he's there, but not the same as waking up with him. We were able to lazily wake up together, nice :)

Then the girls woke and we had to get up and get moving, getting food and drink and such. Bob ended up falling asleep again on the couch.

He had to go into football practice at 3pm and i had to be over at a ladies house at 3:30 to pick up some boy cloths i had bought over a facebook swap site. Then i headed on over to wal-mart to pick up some fruit and my Sunday newspapers.

Once home i started in on the house cleaning. Not to far into that Bob called me saying he was coming back, i was very pleased! House cleaning continued after that. It was nice to get so much done!

Then we had our show come on, The Walking Dead, which was fun. Then later that night when the Talking Dead came on our friends came over to watch it with us :) Which was very nice!

16 Weeks Along


16 weeks today! 4 months along. It doesn't seem like far saying it like that but for me, i feel like i'm very far along >_< lol I have so much more to go!

This last week brought me headaches and i've been getting them every day now. I'm done tons of research and tried tons of different things but i haven't found that one thing that helps expect pain pills :( I have symptoms of tension and sinus headache. I've tried extra water, eating something with sugar, ice packs, hot baths, dark chocolate (something about it being dark), tried coffee, laying down, naps.... lots of things they recommend. Not sure what my issue is.

I keep looking at my belly and like to rub it. I think i am a lot bigger this go around then the other time, yet i've only gained 2 pounds o.0
