Gained 6
pounds in the first 18 weeks…then between 18 and 22 put on another 6. In other
words, I enjoyed the holidays. Trying to cut back on my sweets a little to see
if that helps…
In other
news I have a pregnancy craving; Chick Fil A spicy chicken sandwich and their
milkshakes, specially a strawberry milkshake. With Moses I don’t remember ever
having cravings that went on for weeks (although as a result of that pregnancy
I now eat mushrooms, onions, and tomatoes- weird!) but this my friends is a
craving. Tuesday a 2pm? Great time for a treat! Thursday at 10am? Why not! I
could eat them pretty much anytime of the day.
It took all
your dumb New Year’s Resolutions to help me realize (so crap it’s pretty much a
resolution) I need to exercise more. I promised myself this past summer when
prepping for this pregnancy that I would stay active; most importantly to have
a productive birth but to also help with post baby weight loss. But have I been
hitting the gym? No. Have I been taking evening walks with the boys? No because
it’s pitch black when I get home! So yadda yadda holidays are over, Moses
birthday is over, and I’ve got the next four months to get active again!
I think last
time I updated I was crying about getting dressed and while it’s not smiley,
happy Clueless style mornings it’s getting better. I’ve sank into a weekend
wardrobe and throw on a few dresses or skirts for work. My favorite part of
dressing my pregnant body is the ability to wear tight shirts with no love handles or muffin tops or doughnut
holes or whatever you want to call them; just nice smooth lines!
If we’ve
talked in the last few weeks and you asked if we had a name yet and I said no;
I was lying. We actually tossed around this name the day we found out we were
having a boy but not until recently have we confirmed this is it. We both love
it. So why haven’t we shared? Because we can’t figure out a middle name! Davy
thinks I’m crazy for not picking one yet but nothing has felt right and until
it feels right and we love it I don’t need anyone to make me second guess our
choice.

You are the cutest! And I have never eaten at Chic-fil-A before-- there aren't any around here! BUT that sounds amazing!
You look super duper cute!
