Sorry guys, no catchy title for this blog. I was thinking "Time keeps on slipping, slipping, slipping, into the future..." considering I don't quite know where time has gone. Today marks the 22 week mark which means only 18 weeks left to go! As promised I will add an update from 21 weeks and catch you up with this week.
For my 21 week mark, I was happily vacationing in Maryland with my family. It was wonderful to see so many people and actually get to spend time with them considering the last few trips home were so short. The week long trip was filled with shopping for Connor, watching some good television and the Baby shower!! It was a rather relaxing trip and I really enjoyed it! The flight back to Maryland went well, other than Connor kicking my lovely bladder non-stop. The flight back home was rather exhausting considering the first flight had a 40 minute weather delay where we were stuck on the plane and weren't allowed to take off. Then made it safely to the layover and finally back home. I was so excited to go get my puppy from the vet's office I could barely contain myself! He had an awesome stay and the vet techs all said he is a HUGE puppy still at almost 11 months old. That's my boy :-). Anyways, the baby shower was a fun time thanks to my awesome sister. Who, I am sure by now everyone knows, is expecting her own little bundle of joy in October. Connor will not only have 1 cousin who is 6 years old, but another that will be 3 months younger!! We are so happy for both Jen and Jeff and Chris! We wish you a happy and healthy 9 months! Anyways, the baby shower, Connor got some awesome gifts through the mail already including the crib set from grandma and grandad, the play pen with a napper and changing table, a Redskins onesie, and matress pad from Aunt Tammy, Aunt Theresa, Grandma Hilda, Sherri, Kayla and Laura. Some really adorable outfits, books and the diaper bag from Aunt Katie and Uncle Nick. An Etown onsie, a humidifier, a curious george book and a Goldfish snack container from Aunt Melissa and Aunt Meredith. The stroller and carseat from Grandma Linda. Then some "lighter" gifts from so many other awesome family and friends. I want to say thank you all so much for coming and taking time out of your Friday evening. I loved seeing you all and I had a really nice time.
So now I hit 22 weeks... This week is going to be an awesome one! My lovely husband was approved for leave starting this Friday and therefore will be home on Friday night! I cannot wait, this week long leave will be the longest that I have seen him in the last 3 months and my excitement cannot be contained. Seriously, nothing this week can make me angry (okay well maybe a few things but still). Then late Saturday night or early Sunday morning Jen, Jeff and Chris will be here to visit! We were supposed to go to Orlando for a week long vacation but now with TWO babies on the way we decided to hold off and just show them around Pensacola. Which will be awesome anyways and way more relaxing for all parties involved!! We have so many things planned for next week that it'll be tiring but we can always say let's just go to the beach instead! haha. I do have a doctor's appointment on Monday, just a check-up and to give me the results from the 20 week anatomy scan. *Fingers are crossed for good news* and thankfully Kyle will be home to go along!! Also, our Saturday is going to be filled with shopping for Connor- we cannot wait to go get some of the essential items he needs and on top of that to get some fun stuff too. Although, we do know that for the first weeks there won't be much fun stuff needed, we still want to get some things while we have the time together.
Okay, this is getting long enough. Moral of the two weeks- things were awesome and will continute to get better. My favorite moment in the next week will definitely being able to have Kyle feel a kick from Connor. I have been feeling him from the outside for the past 3 weeks and I have been waiting for Kyle to come home so he can feel it too!!
Of course here is the picture from my 22nd week... Until next Tuesday morning- have a good week!!
