Week 26

How far along: 26 Weeks 

Food Comparison: Lettuce

Gender: Boy!! 

Weight gain: +14 lbs 

Maternity clothes: I just ordered two belly bands (code thefrugalgirls2014 gets you two free bands - all you pay is s&h). Hopefully it's not to late to use them. I have some cute capris and jeans that I'd like to continue to wear. I'm just so cheap these days that I hate buying clothes for this bump. I'll be on the look out soon though for some cute dresses for my upcoming showers. 

Stretch marks: No - not yet. I'm keeping that coco butter slathered on. 

Belly button in or out: In for now.

Sleep: CT and I have switched sides of the bed the past few nights and it's amazing what a difference it has made. Our knees don't knock and my face is right next to the box fan. It's nice. Hopefully I can continue to talk him into this. 

Best moment last week: The 3 day weekend. I love being off work and being able to get so much done around the apartment. 

Worst moment last week: Finding my ring finger swollen. Yikes. 

Miss anything: My pants buttoning.

Movement: Yes. I love looking at my belly and seeing where he's positioned because of it being lopsided. 

Cravings: Sour cream. Krispy Kreme Donuts.  

Queasy or sick: No. 

Looking forward to: Hearing Kingston's heartbeat later today and hopefully passing my 1 hour glucose test.

Prayer Request: This week I pray that Kingston finds a best friend like I have found in his father. Someone that makes him happy and that can make him laugh, someone that challenges him, and someone that loves him and prays for him.

 I can't wait to experience parenthood with CT and I'm counting down the days until we can meet our little addition. 

I hope you all had a fabulous Easter! 

(My two day hair wasn't really working for me today and I need some practice on how to pose with a bump. I use to wonder why everyone always held their belly - but when I see pictures when I don't - I now know why. It's the most flattering way to not look huge.)
