Growing Boy...

I am happy to say that I am feeling pretty good these days and apparently so is little M.E.L.  Last night/morning I had to use the restroom around 5am...  I guess I woke up the little man because when I laid back down he decided to start playing jumper johnny in my belly.  It was by far the most consistent crazy movement he has ever done and I was half asleep so I can only imagine what it would have felt like fully awake.  They say right now the baby has the most room to move based on his size/ uterus size ratio and he is taking full advantage. 
I had an appointment last week and all is still going as should be, we are so blessed to have a healthy little one on the way.  I have gained about 9lbs (feels like 20) and the baby's heartbeat is a lot louder and more waily now.  Next appointment is 12/16, more measurements and weighing for me (yay!...not)
I am going home this Thanksgiving weekend (Lam has to stay back for work unfortunately) and my sisters and I are going to see "The Baby Guy".  He used to be an interior designer and now makes custom baby bedding.  I am very excited but a little nervous as well being as though I am so indecisive about stuff like that and because Mr. Lamoreaux is not a fan of anything besides a sports theme (shocker)... at least that narrows it down for me.  So hopefully that goes well and I will be able to order M.E.L. bedding this weekend :)

That is all for now, baby bump picture will be up next week when I am officially 6 months!

20 WEEK BUMP

By popular demand I am going to put up a picture of my belly bump.  It really popped this last week and I for sure look pregnant.  Today marks the halfway point and NO ONE told me it would be this uncomfortable this early on. "Pregnancy is a beautiful thing" and "you will LOVE your second trimester" is a lot of what I heard...not that at only 20 weeks it would feel as though M.E.L. (this is what we refer to baby boy Lamb as bc that is all we know for sure on his name) is trying to push his way into my sternum.  Last night I had some trouble in the middle of this night because I felt at though he was literally in my chest even though I know he is not even close yet. It felt like I could not breathe (He knows I am talking about him, M.E.L. is kicking me as we speak :) ) Otherwise all has been great!! I know it will all be worth it and I am very excited to meet my little boy and see what he looks like. I cannot wait to be a MOM!!
Alright here is me in one of my tighter shirts after work today.  I am going to put one up monthly from here on out.
