21 weeks (and 5 days)! Obviously there's no mistaking that I'm pregnant because little girl is getting bigger (yay!!) My app says baby is the size of a banana! That just seems funny to me. Plus bananas are like 5 different sizes so like HOW BIG IS SHE?! Either way, banana baby. Which is perfect because my favorite thing to eat lately is cut up strawberries + bananas. Side note- did you know walmart price matches?? So I always get strawberries there and just price match with the cheapest place selling strawberries because I eat SO many! They're $1.27 at Fry's right now in case you're dying to run to walmart to price match and save some $. Or just go to Fry's if they exist where you live :)
I feel like everyday belly triples in size or something! She is moving so much, too! I feel her kicks (not super strong, but getting stronger) mostly when I lay on my back or something. Jason hasn't been able to feel her yet but I'm always like "hey J she's MOVING OH MY GOSH" and then obviously she stops when he tries to feel. I bet he'll be able to feel her soon! K so interesting fact that my app told me haha baby has taste buds! So she can taste what I eat! I just thought that was really cool because I never thought too in depth about what goes on in there and the app teaches me all of these random facts that blow my mind.
My belly button is getting more shallow but hasn't popped out or anything yet. Do they always pop out? Oh and sleep is still good, it isn't hard to sleep yet so hopefully it stays that way! My fingers/ ankles haven't swelled up yet (yay!) and I wouldn't mind if they don't swell at all! I'm just trying to think of all those random pregnancy questions people answer and I think I covered everything!

And of course some pictures of us! Oh and I am loving these shirts so much! My cousin, Kaesi, recommended them to me and I'm obsessed because they're they perfect non-maternity-but-i'm-getting-a-belly shirts :) Plus they'll still work great when I'm not pregnant!! Welp, that is all for now!

You are looking great!!! It seems like time is flying by!
ReplyDeleteThank you!! It really is flying so fast!
Delete21 weeks, so so so so exciting. YOu look so wonderful, lady! How fun you are really feeling the movement.
ReplyDeleteThank you sooooo much!! The movement is so cool!!
DeleteOh my gosh over half way already! Hurray for tastebuds! Banana baby is tasting all those bananas :)
ReplyDeleteEvelina @ Fortunate House
I know, it's crazy!! hahah I hope baby likes all these bananas and strawberries I'm making her eat ;)
DeleteAhh you are so gorgeous girl!! These apps are so cool, I can't wait to follow along when I get pregnant. I had no clue that they developed taste buds this early. Hope Jason gets to feel her too, that's gotta be a cool feeling!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much!! Seriously I learn so many things every week about what is happening and I am always so surprised!! Jason finally felt her last night!!! It was awesome! :)
DeleteI'm sorry to hear that you're still sick on occasion...I think that's my biggest fear lol!! You look perfect!! Love the lipstick! xo, Biana -BlovedBoston
ReplyDeleteLuckily it's more rare these days, it's worth it I promise!! ;) and thank you!!
DeleteYou look amazing! Love that sweet baby bump. Both of my babes would stop moving whenever I told Drew to feel. Ha ha. He said that usually he'd feel them kick and move at night when he'd put his arm around me to sleep. He said a few times it would freak him out because he was asleep and woken up by baby kicking him in the arm. "Move it Dad, you are squeezing me!"
ReplyDeleteThank you so so much!! haha and that is so funny, I feel like that, too! last night Jason just had his hand on my belly for a while and she finally kicked and he felt it!! and that is really funny about your husband feeling baby while you guys slept, that would be a funny little wake up call :)
DeleteAw congrats on 21 weeks and passing the half way mark! I'm currently 31 weeks with baby #2 and seriously he is moving around so much that sometimes I need to move cause I get uncomfortable lol! You look great though! :)

Thank you so much!! Awh 31 weeks, I cannot wait to be that close to meeting our baby!! Congrats to you, too! :) xo
DeleteHooray for feeling her moving around so much! That's awesome! I bet J will be able to feel her so SOON!
ReplyDeleteHave you guys picked out a name yet? And if so have you decided when you're going to share it?
It is so cool to feel her move!! He got to feel her last night!! It was so special!! We both have a name that we like so it is just a matter of convincing him to use mine... I mean deciding together what to name her officially ;) haha
DeleteYou look so cute girlfriend!!! :) I'm glad you're feeling better and aren't the kicks and movements just the best ever?! I love your lipstick too- btw!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much!! Seriously kicks are my favorite ever :) like yay keep it up in there, baby girl!
DeleteThis was when my favorite part of pregnancy started. You look so amazing and I love that you are feeling her move around!
ReplyDeleteYay I am excited to see how the next few weeks go and how much more I will get to feel her. Thank you so much!! xo
DeleteLookin' cute, lookin' cute. I like that shirt, it looks super comfy. :)
ReplyDeleteAwh thank you!! it seriously is the most comfy shirt ever!!
DeleteYou look amazing!! Like seriously, why can't I look that cute? Also, pretty sure you are just gaining in the bump and boob department! Haha. So jealous that you don't have swollen ankles...they suck!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much!! k I think you look super cute but I know how you feel, like just not feeling as cute as we did prior big belly haha Yeah seriously these pregnancy boobs are a little crazy!! When did you start to swell up?!
Deletewow time is really flying by fast!! cant believe you're 22 weeks already! you're over half way!
ReplyDeleteI know it really is going to quick!! Getting closer!! :)
DeleteYou're so cute, you're so cute, you're so cute. I want that shirt, I want that shirt, I want that shirt. I feel like if I knew you in real life I'd be borrowing all your clothes lol. And make you do my hair. And my eyebrows. And that would be awesome lol. Anyways, you're cute. And I LOLed at the banana thing lol. Seriously! That is kind of broad. When I was home my step-sister was saying how her baby was 15 inches long and John got out measuring take and we were all like, "OMG THAT'S HUGE HOW IS SHE IN THERE" it was crazy. But I guess they're all curled up nice and tight, not like standing up lol. Okay, and how do you do the price match thing? I've seen someone do it in front of me a long time ago, when I was in a hurry and I was like, COME ON. I think she had to bring all the coupons in right? I need to start saving money on produce because I am eating through $$$ trying to be healthy.
ReplyDelete**measuring tape!!
DeleteK thank youuuuu! I feel kind of like a big balloon haha so that is nice to hear!! :) K I have this shirt in 5 colors (went a little crazy) but they are so freaking comfy and make good pregnancy shirts + normal shirts when baby is outta here. It's a deal, if you move here we will have an open closet policy ;) k and exactly, there are a million different banana sizes haha how am I supposed to know what one she is?! come on, app!! Someone got us a bunch of baby clothes and a 3 month onesie was HUGE, like they must just grow at lightening speed because we were both like holy crap! So when I price match, all I do is google the ad (so like google Fry's weekly ad or whatever grocery stores are near you always have weekly ads that they put online) and I go to walmart and just say I'd like to price match these, they're $1 at this store and sometimes they look at the ad I have pulled up or they can look it up, too. So I've been googling like every place's strawberry prices so I can keep up my addiction and not go broke haha :)
DeleteYAY!!! It's going by so fast!! You look so amazing!! Definitely got that pregnancy glow!!

It really is seeming so quick. And thank you so so much, Olivia! xo
DeleteI loved your snaps yesterday! haha That was totally me! "But the baby wanted it." I am happy to report my belly button never popped! I did feel worn down until about mid-way to the end of my second trimester. Once the third rolled around I had a bunch of energy. Hopefully you have that to look forward to! haha
ReplyDeleteThank you!! haah I was hoping I didn't look like too much of a freak snap chatting about cookies :) I hope mine doesn't pop cause I like my innie :) That is so good to know about 3rd trimester energy, bring it on!!
Deletethat baby bump though!!! so many heart eyes!
ReplyDeleteThank you!!! xo
DeleteI didn't know WalMart price matched and I love that bright pink lipstick!

Yes price matching is my jam lately!! and thank you so much!!
DeleteBelly buttons are so weird when your pregnant! Mine was mostly shallow the entire pregnancy. The last month it sort of poked out, but not really.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if that's how I'll be!! It's like getting shallower and stuff but not quite poking out yet haha
DeleteLove your lip stain color- its looks so good on your skin tone! I love what you said about the size of a banana, seriously that is not very telling haha.
