Farmer's Market and More...

 

Last week was pretty eventful for us! On Thursday we went to the square to grab a bite to eat with some of Jacob's family. It was nice to get out of the house and hang out at the square after dinner while porking down a sprinkled icecream cone.....it's Blair's favorite!...or mom's who knows? ;)

Then Friday we headed to Fayetteville to eat at my favorite pizza place, Tiny Tim's. Ugh why can't there be one here in Bentonville? I would be there every single week if so! I called up one of my besties, Rosalva, and we got to have dinner then cupcakes (also Blair's favorite, hehe). Then we walked around the square there and caught up! I guess it's not so bad driving to Fayetteville for dinner if I get to spend that time with Rosalva! Earlier that day I caught Blair moving in my tummy, just a tiny bit, she knows when I'm recording and decides to stop instantly. Pretty frustrating! But I did get one little kick, so I was able to show Rosalva, I just loved how excited it made her and Jacob (even though he's seen her kicking and felt her kicking a millions times!)!

Saturday morning Jacob and I woke up and went to the Farmer's Market. I loved it, especially all the beautiful flowers! I wanted to buy them all! It was waaaay hot though so we kept poking into stores near by and I found the cutest necklace for pregnant women. It has months 1-9 on them and you can add a month when you get there. I loved it, and if I wasn't already 6 months along I would have definitely purchased it! 

And last but not least, we finally put Blair's crib together! I love it! Her room is slowly but surely coming together. We have the crib, bookshelf, and dresser. Even though the dresser needs repainted, but my dad is going to pick it up next weekend and get started! Meep! I can't wait to get it back!

I didn't know it was possible to feel Blair move around more than she already does, but I have been able to this week! She's a little mover and a shaker. I absolutely love it. I already know I'm going to miss that feeling after birth! But at least I'll have her to snuggle with to make me miss them less!

24 Weeks.

 

 Blair is the length of an ear of corn this week!! Also she probably weighs 1.25 lbs!

I can't believe it, I'm finally 6 months pregnant! Only 3 more months to go! Ah!! I'm so excited to hold her and kiss her it's all I can think about! I've majorly bumped out in the past 2 weeks, it's impossible to not see that I'm pregnant now days!

This weekend we registered for our baby shower that is happening October 12th, so mark your calendars everyone!! It was overwhelming to see how much stuff we need, and how expensive it is. My mom and granny came up here to help out and make sure we didn't miss anything. They brought along my nephew Kharter, and we had a great weekend!

We went to the square one night to eat dinner at The Flying Fish (delicious!) and then we had ice-cream and sat by the fountain and hung out while Jacob and Kharter ran around like crazy playing hide-n-go-seek (as seen above) and "run" as Kharter likes to call it. Haha, I'm sure you can guess what that consists of! It melts my heart to see Jacob with Kharter, I know he's going to be the best dad. I can't wait to see him with Blair! We also spent both days at the pool, because obviously we have the best pool ever according to Kharter!

We got her crib yesterday and I can't wait for Jacob to put it together! We almost have all of the furniture, it's so exciting!! And while my mom was down she bought the blanket for us that we are going to be using for Blair's comforter(along with some bows, onesies, hangers and a book!)! Eeek! Things are starting to come together, I'm so excited.

Today we had my 24 week appointment, and everything is going good so far! The doctor said I'm measuring right on time and that Blair's heartbeat is strong and great at 140. She also told me I'm carrying low and in my back so that could be one of the causes of my intense back pain. Oh joy!

Blair kicks nonstop, I often wonder if she ever sleeps, Maybe she's a wiggler in her sleep just like her mom! But I wouldn't change it for the world, feeling her move and seeing her move my belly is the most amazing thing ever. I just can't get enough of it.
