7 Months

My belly is getting BIGGER!!  It's really hard to bend over and pick up things and put shoes on.  I try to avoid bending over at all costs, therefore we have a lot more toys on the floor than usual.  I'm just trying to get the kids to pick them up...but they lack efficiency in this regard.  Oh well, two more months!

Newest discovery to satisfy my sweet and salty craving: Planters Brittle Nut Medley.  It has little bits of peanut brittle, honey roasted peanuts, pretzels, cashews, yogurt covered raisins, and lightly salted peanuts.  It's a perfect combination of sweet and salty.  You'll have to pick up a can for yourself and try it out.

Our little one is still kicking and she's very active, which is both reassuring and uncomfortable.  As with all of my pregnancies, my babies find a little nook right under my ribs on the right side.  It's like they hook their feet right under there and then push with all their might and continue that way for two months.  She has started to do this in last week or so and I find myself having to stand up and then lay down and change my position regularly to get her to move. 

The doctor says everything looks good and her heart beat is normal so we are on the right track for another healthy little one.  I can't wait to finally meet her!  I'm already getting excited.  I washed all her clothes and filled her drawers with all the itty bitty pink clothes.  Now we just need to get a crib (the first two destroyed our current crib) and a car seat (we borrowed the last one we used) and we'll be set!

I think you look great. I also think I am as big as you are...not good for me since I am only 22 wks! Good luck with the next few months, can't wait to see her :)
