26 weeks

How my life is changing:

I know I grew a lot this past week. I think I'm getting wider. I am starting to move a lot slower and can't do the things I used to be able to do such as lift things. I am craving chocolate all the time and I was able to have my first snow cone of the season last night. It was so amazing.

Payne's growth:

Payne's ears are now developed enough that he can hear myself and others talking to one another. He still is weighing in the pound to two pound range and is about 14 inches long. He has some strong little feet and arms. He punches and kicks all day every day. He is also moving around a lot and sticking is butt out. He is still really shy about kicking for others.

Payne's Room:

The walls and trim are completely done. Next time we will hire someone to do that. I picked up the chair today, but I'm waiting for Ryan to get home and unload it. I can't wait to see it. My mom is coming next weekend to hopefully bring the bedding. The crib and dresser should be here in the middle of June. The paintings are order and I'm still waiting on those. AND that's it. He can come into the world. Whoooo.

Things to look forward to:

Starting to get shower dates nailed down. That makes me excited. I can't wait to see all the things he gets. Doctors appointment on the 7th. Last I can't wait to see his room all finished.
