25 weeks

I really wanted to update this blog each week but I think I have skipped two weeks in a row. Im slacking! I will do better though.
Pregnancy has been super easy lately. I feel really good and have plenty of energy.
I officially bought my first pair a maternity pants last week:) I had the hardest time finding a cute pair, they all looked like old lady pants. I finally broke down and spent 50 buck on a pair that are pretty cute. I'm cheap so that was a lot to spend on one pair of pants. I'm planning on wearing these pants a lot, so they better last:)
For symptoms I would say *I have a much bigger appetite, I'm always hungry. *I'm still getting calf cramps in the middle of the night. *The baby kicks A LOT, I love it. * Stuffy nose *

I think one of the hardest things for me lately is not doing to much. I don't feel pregnant so I think I can do anything. Like move furniture around and carry very heavy things. Cody has to remind me that I cant do those things.

22 Weeks


Yesterday at church I was talking in the hall with some friends. Katie says,"Geez Kara you don't even look pregnant at all." Then James says,"Ya you just are looking chubby!"
This is what never to say to a pregnant lady, I was wanting to kill him for saying that. His wife has had four kids, he should know better.
----------------------------
This week not much has changed. Im feeling really good. Im feeling the baby kick A LOT. He is always moving when I sit down. Its really fun for Cody to feel the baby kick, he loves it:)
Heres some pics of the growing belly, I feel like Im getting a stomach finally. It pocks out past my boobs.

Week 21

ITS A BOY!!!
We found out on Friday that we are going to have a baby boy! He is perfectly healthy as far as we can tell through the ultrasound.
The ultrasound was so different this time, it actually looked like a baby in there. Last time it was more like a little fish. She was able to check his heart, brain, spin, length, ect. Everything look perfect. He was SO WIGGLY, he would not hold still so it was hard for her to get some good pictures. But we got a few cute ones.
Cody and I were in charge of the Fall Festival for our ward on Friday. It was a lot of work but turned out really fun. There was over 250 people that came. We ate lots of food and the kids played lots of games.
I feel really good lately, I have a lot of energy. The only new thing now is I'm getting Charley horses in my calf in the middle of the night. They are offal.
I gain 7 POUNDS last month:) I know, its a lot for one month. I had to ask the nurse if her scale was broken because I don't think I weight that much. I'm hoping it was because this appointment was in the afternoon and I had just eaten lunch and had to drink 32 oz of water for my ultrasound. Or maybe the baby is growing nice and big.
I cant wait to go buy some clothes for this little boy!! I secretly really wanted a boy and I know Cody did too. Its great!
