Baby Hayford Update: 25 Weeks

How far along?  25 weeks today

Total weight gain/loss?  At my last appointment on Wednesday of last week I have gained 11 pounds which the doctor said is still looking wonderful for being 6 months pregnant :)

Maternity clothes? I again haven't full committed to wear maternity clothes 100% percent of the time and it is pretty awesome that some of my regular clothes still fit- except for jeans that ship has sailed :/

Stretch marks? Still nothing yet but I am putting on lotion religiously so I am still hoping that I won't get any but I am pretty sure I'll never be that lucky.

Sleep?  I am still sleeping pretty phenomenally all things considered so yay for that

Best moment last week? The very best moment last week was my very first baby shower!!! My wonderful friends; Bri, Kristin, Gloria and Jayme threw me a wonderful baby shower. Here are a few pictures from the awesome afternoon they planned for me.

Midnight Diapers :)

Adorable Onesies

DELICIOUS food! One of my favorite spots of the day

Drink Station

Yummmmy cake balls

Adorable diaper cake made by Mrs. Gloria Sanders

Candy Bar

All of the amazing gifts from my WONDERFUL friends :)

The AMAZING nursery letters made by Samuel's Aunt Titi

And last but not least all of the amazing women who put the shower on for me

Movement?  This little munchkin is active ALL THE TIME! Which is a very cool and I must admit reassuring feeling to be able to feel him move and now he is moving more and more to where our family and friends can feel him more and I'm glad I can share that with them before he gets here. 

Food cravings?  I haven't had many food cravings these days other than BBQ baked potatoes from Central Texas with sweet tea-- that might in fact by my weakness these days.

Labor signs? Still no on this one! YAY!

Belly button in/out? Still in :) 

What I miss:  Being able to hang out with my friends and make it past 9 pm lol- but someone has to grow this baby!

What I am looking forward to:  Having the crib put together and getting a few more decor items to finish off the nursery. Also, having my glider come in and get that in the nursery to have it further finished :)

Milestones:  We went to pick up our furniture last night at Buy Buy Baby which made me feel so awesome being that much closer to having this little man here.

Until the next time!
