Miss Cranky Pants

Little Miss Priss has been playing through nap time at school. This is what I fight every single afternoon that we have to go anywhere after school. Not only does she try to take a 5 o'clock nap, she is the queen of cranky. She hardly ever takes a nap on the weekend and I'm not sure what's so different about a school day! We have warned her big time that she better start closing her eyes at nap time!!!

She does look so precious, doesn't she?

15 Weeks

How Far Along: 15 weeks

Size of baby: Baby #2 is the about the size of an apple (about 4 inches long and 2.5 ounces).

Total Weight Gain/Loss: I’m not sure. Around 6-7 lbs, maybe. 

Maternity Clothes: Not yet. I officially cannot button some of my pants. I've worn dresses all week. 

Gender: We won't know for a few more weeks still. 

Movement: I've thought a couple of times this week that I might have felt baby. How can you know for sure the first times? It's so slight and sudden! 

Sleep: I get up once or twice to pee every night. I ordered a maternity pillow. I wasn't sure I needed one yet, but, for some reason, I sleep better with it! I think it's just that I can kind of prop on it. 

Cravings:  Bojangles spicy fries still! 

Symptoms: The acne. It's at it's all time worse on my forehead! 

Best Moment this week: Feeling those sweet little flutters (I'm pretty sure that's what it was!)

We've really got to work on these pictures. I think we may have to change our setting. Dusty takes the picture from near our bed and there just isn't enough room. 

Lovely Spring Weekend

We had a lovely weekend, playing outside and resting inside! Avery Claire and our neighbor, Parker, played all afternoon. He accidentally left his sword at our house. Dusty said Avery Claire was pretty much mid-sentence and he looked over and saw this. 

We returned the sword at dinner with the neighbors, but I didn't take a picture. They have a 9 month old, and if dinner with them was a look into our future, we're gonna have a BIG helper on our hands. We were worn out from trying to get her to back off him. 

Avery Claire has been so proud of our pink flowers blooming in the front. 

She's telling "you" that this straw will cut you!

She knows this from past experience.
