Bumpdate Week 13!!!

How far along?  

13 weeks today!!

I wore this outfit out yesterday, thinking I didn't look too noticeably preggars...

 

OOTD:

Top: Express 

Skirt: Kohl's maternity

Tank: F21

Earrings: F21 

However, one of the ladies at the nail salon I frequent for pedicures,
came right up and put her hand on my tummy

and said, "How far? Boy or girl?"
Granted, I haven't gotten my toes done there in awhile.

And then I picked up the dry cleaning later in the day and the girl asked me,

"Are you pregnant?"

So, I suppose the beans have really spilled and my belly's really growing!

My friend K and I went to Bare Escentuals and got our makeup did'. 

{The above shots I am sans makeup}

This is my after shot:

And I may or may not have bought 

The Happy Place.

Damn makeup boutique and excellent salesgirls!

Maternity clothes? 

Yes.
I didn't want to stretch out my clothes, so I am already in shorts & tops. 

I can get away with mixing flowy non-maternity tops with maternity bottoms and 

flowy non-maternity bottoms with maternity tops...

Luckily I have tons of comfy dresses that fit well and a little looser, so I wear those too.

I can't really get into the whole bella band thing anymore.

Sleep: 

Just started waking up more than once and then unable to fall back to sleep.

 It may be time for the body pillow investment.

 Best moment this week:  

Receiving our strip of photos in the mail {I think the Dr forgot to give it to us last week}

so it was a nice surprise. I hung them on the fridge, texted hubs:

"We made this!!"

Miss anything? 

I am not going to lie, I do miss a refreshing glass of Pinot Grigio once in awhile.

And salmon sushi, with a squeeze of lemon over rice....

mouth.is.watering.

But when I do, I rub my belly and smile because something much cooler than wine & sushi is happening.

Movement:  

Possibly? I'm not quite sure if it's the baby or just the 'round ligament pain'.

It's like a poking sensation?

I'm not sure when I'll feel kicking...

Food cravings: 

 Fruit!!

Cheese fries, sweets {donuts, candy bars, ice cream...} 

and Slur-pees--I can't find any around here though?!

Anything making you queasy:  

Not so much any more, but thoughts of certain foods still make my stomach lurch a tad.

{Bacon? Hot sauce? Coffee? Usually love these}

Symptoms: 

Hungry--like, if I don't eat right away then I get crazy. I'm breaking out especially on my chest, which I've never experienced like this before, and I still get tired and hot really easily.

Belly button in or out? 

In

Wedding rings on or off? 

On..I don't ever want them off!?

Mood: 

 Calm and happy.

I could listen to baby's heartbeat all the time {hubs videoed it}

and stare at his/her pictures all day.

Looking forward to: 

Feeling baby kick!

Weight Gain:

Yes, I have gained about 10 pounds already...

not sure how I'm going to stay in the, "gain 25 lbs total" category.

Stretch marks? 

 No, and I'm slathering on belly butter, oil, {Burt's Bees} and Cocoa butter like it's my job!! 

Gifts for baby:

My mother suggested I start some crafts for baby...

So my friend Alison & I hit up Hobby Lobby last week.

Don't laugh, as I may be great in kitchen, I'm not so crafty.

So, I made one of these bake in the oven goodies!

[I have more crafts I'll post about when I do them!]
Gift from Nana & Papa 

{Step-mom & Dad}

They bought this in the Bahamas when we were on the cruise!

 My friend Kristin added to Baby Bean's book collection!
How frickin precious.

{She's a Kindergarten teacher, so Aunt Kristin will hook us up on all the good children's lit!}

  I am loving the growing belly and the second trimester is soooooo much better than the first.
