This week has been a week full of ups and downs. My good friend Marissa, who's been pregnant with me all along so far, had her baby last Thursday. She had a little girl, Giavonna, and I was so excited for her and her husband, Joe. Unlike me, she didn't find out ahead of time what she was having, so when I found out she had a girl, I immediately went out and got some adorable pink outfits for her (which she's already worn!) It's been amazing hearing about her first week as a mother and all of her experiences. Congratulations Marissa!
On the downside, Travis had a cold last week (and is still recovering) and as much as I tried to avoid it, my body gave in. I'm totally congested and I looked on the sheet that my doctor gave me about safe medications, and there's not much I can do. I'm drinking lots of fluids, and trying to get some rest in order to beat it. Additionally, it's been a really, really stressful week at work, which hasn't helped. Here is what did help - this is what was waiting for me at home after a very stressful day from my wonderful husband...he knows me so well!!
Fortunately, Travis and I are excited to find out the gender FINALLY on Monday morning!! I got the "confirmation of appointment" phone call from my doctor today, so it's really on! This past weekend Travis and I went to "Baby Tyme" which is a family owned Baby Furniture store in Hartville, OH, and they had the most adorable furniture, bedding, and display sets. It made me even more excited to find out what we're having so that we can start planning the nursery.
Since I've made it 20 weeks, I took some more pictures! One of my coworkers commented today that "I finally look pregnant" which I'm taking as a compliment. I think you'll see from the pictures that she's right...I definitely have a baby belly now!
