What's New. What's New. (and getting fatter)

Everything is going really well. We saw the Dr. today and everything looks perfect. I was stressing because I knew the scale was going to shift this month. My appetite has doubled..... ok tripled. I swear all I do is eat. I'm fine gaining weight, obviously it's going to happen. But me pigging out isn't the way I want to do it. Every time I look in the mirror (naked) I literally gasp. It's like I forget how much my body is changing. Tanner keeps telling my how beautiful I am and that I need to just enjoy the experience. So sweet but I want to throw a shoe at his head. I am very happy to announce that today at 21 weeks I've gained a total of 5 pounds. All gained this month...... but 5 all the same. I thought it would be at least 10 maybe 15.

Hadley is wonderful. It's amazing how much I already love her. I talk to her all the time. I'm trying to convince her it would be really special if she would come out weighing the same as me 6.11 and NOT anywhere close to her father..... 10.4. She started moving a couple weeks ago, I'm loving it. LOVING it. I did realize however that she already favors Tanner. She goes crazy whenever he's around. If she can hear his voice she wiggles and moves and kicks. I'll go the entire day and maybe feel her move twice. But as soon as we're together and he's talking...... she goes nuts. And if he's on my right, she moves to the right. If he's on my left, she moves to the left.

So we just keep chugging along, counting down the days. We are working on getting her room put together, that means caulking and painting all the trim. We decided before we move everything out of her room we might as well caulk and paint our spare room. So that was the task last weekend and I'm happy to say the spare room is almost done. YEAH! for us. Last week we got the crib bedding, it's precious. I'm so glad that is done. Now I can move on with everything else. I was waiting until we picked the bedding to officially decide on the nursery colors.

Hope all is well with all of you! Loves to all.
