Easter Sunday, Belly Update, & Planning for TWO huge events!

Happy Easter!!

Last weekend David and I made the drive down to Land O' Lakes to spend Saturday & Easter Sunday with my mom & extended family! It was a nice, relaxing weekend.



So onto wedding stuff... Why didn't I know how stressful this stuff was before?
I've watched wedding shows on TLC for the past few years gathering ideas and marveling at the messes the brides have made leading up to their weddings. However, I never realized how much really goes into planning this one day, once-in-a-lifetime event.
This is a little of what we have so far. Surprisingly, David & I agree on a lot of the main things. He has basically said he doesn't care about the details, just about picking a good band.




What I want to get solidified before our baby girl gets here...

-Ceremony & reception venues booked
-A set date- we know the general month & even week we want the wedding in, but it really depends on the cruise when we'll actually have it.
-Cruise package picked & spots reserved
-Save the Dates sent out

23 Weeks Update



How far along: 23 weeks!
Total weight gain: 10 lbs
Maternity Clothes: loving loose dresses for this summer heat. It's only going to get hotter, omg.
Stretch Marks: Yuck. I'm keeping my fingers crossed & using lots of lotion!
Sleep: Still good!
Best moment this week: It was great this weekend when my mom got to finally feel her kick! She's an active little booger now.
Miss anything: A stomach that isn't so sensitive. Baby Girl doesn't like a lot of things...
Movement: Just about every day I'll feel her kick once or twice.
Food cravings: I really wanted Velveeta today, does that qualify as a craving?
Anything making you queasy or sick: Fried/ greasy foods
Gender: Female!!
Labor Signs: Not yet
Symptoms: My stomach feels very tight/stretched. I swear she has tripled in size in the past week!
Belly Button In or Out: More out than in
Happy or Moody: Happy!
Looking forward to: Having my baby showers & being able to enjoy creating her nursery. 


Side Note:

Here's the new beds our kitties got as Easter presents. Reggie (the gray one) is bigger & squeezes into the "hut" while Kit Kat, our little one, lounges in the big bed. They're so funny. :) 


Have a great week!
