24 Weeks!

Picture update....bigger? I think so.

Baby Update

I went to the doctor yesterday after they got power back on and had my checkup. I'm still gaining weight, which I know is good, but good lord people I'm a hefty load now! Anyway, the baby's heart rate is between 150bpm-160bpm which is completely normal. I have been having this groin pain lately and the doctor said it's just round ligament pain from my uterus growing, good, but it makes it increasingly difficult to put pants on because it hurts to stand on one leg! I'm going back to the doctor on Oct. 7th for another checkup so I'll have another update then.

Our first hurricane

There aren't that many pictures because my camera ran out of battery, but I wanted to post some pictures from the first hurricane for me and the baby. Chris went through one when he was a few months old so it was kind of his first hurricane too. Unfortunately I don't have any pictures of the aftermath, just the calm before the storm. We survived with little damage. Our living room got some water in it and we are drying out the carpet. Our huge tree in our front yard lost a lot of big limbs which now line the front of our yard and we lost a few shingles that Chris can replace. Thankfully our water never went off, although I'm not sure we were supposed to be using it, but our electricity went out about 6pm on Friday and we have yet to get it back, hopefully soon! It's been cool enough lately to be very comfortable without A/C and hopefully it will stay this way. I have never experienced anything like this before it's like living in some alternate universe but at least we are okay!

Halfway

So in honor of being halfway done with the pregnancy I thought I would post a picture of the belly for all to look at in awe. It's not even close to being huge yet, but I'm making progress in the growth department. Enjoy!
