Wyatt's Second Shower

We have been so blessed during our pregnancy with so many showers and gifts from family and friends.  Wyatt is a very loved little boy!  Sean's sister hosted a shower for us at her house in Fayetteville and it was so nice.

Squash

Pregnancy Highlights:

How Far Along: 32 Weeks (2/21/13)

Size of baby: 16.8 inches and about 3.5-4 pounds! Right now our baby is the size of a squash!!

Total Weight Gain/Loss: +/- 32 pounds

Maternity Clothes: I'm definitely wearing maternity clothes!

Gender: BOY!!...Wyatt Haischer Dorey!!

Movement: He has really been kicking and moving around a lot! He pretty much kicks, flips, and turns all day. He's also found my ribs and loves to keep his feet in them. I love being able to see him move around now too. He's also starting to have the hiccups more often, which is an odd feeling.

Food Cravings: Still no cravings

Food Aversion: Not really

What I miss: Sleeping on my back and Diet Dr. Pepper....I have a very small amount once every couple of weeks but it'll be so nice to enjoy a Route 44!

Sleep: Thankfully I'm still sleeping great!
Symptoms: Back pain, some indigestion, and some crazy numb/sore/burning feeling on my belly under my breasts.
Best Moment this Week: Having Wyatt's second shower with Sean's family.  We have been so blessed with all of the gifts for Wyatt!
What I am Looking Forward To: Hopefully getting some more work done in his room.

Our Weekend

We had a really nice and relaxing weekend.  It was pretty low key since Sean is still getting over  a bad cold.   It started off Friday afternoon when I got home and found a beautiful orchid.  Sean had been out of town all weekend so it was a nice "I'm Home"/Valentine's day gift.  For dinner we went to dinner at one of our favorite spots, Cardinal Cafe.  

Saturday morning Sean had to work so it allowed me to get some more cleaning around the house done.  Saturday afternoon we made a very bittersweet decision.  Sean sold one of his first "baby's"...his Pontiac G8.  We have a lot of great memories in this car, but it's also exciting because the money will help us do some major work on our house.

Sunday morning we woke up and Sean made got us a delicious breakfast from McDonald's ...one of my favorites.  We spent the day outside enjoying the beautiful weather.
