26 Weeks!

Okay I am getting excited to meet Ava for sure!!! Everyday I have been feeling more excited and also looking forward to having my normal body back! Now I know what people mean when they talk about "being pregnant." I have to elevate my feet a few times a day and keep my circulation going in my legs... and the worst thing so far is that I have to wear compression socks!! Well, not 100% of the time but as much as I can. They make me feel like an old lady but they honestly have done wonders so far! My leg feels so much better than it did. There were a few days where I couldn't even feel my leg! It was the weirdest thing... and kind of concerning. But, I think I have things under control for now :)

Something sad that happened was our baby furniture (crib and dresser) had flood damage so we can't use them anymore. When it flooded back in January they got exposed to the flood water... so because that water is icky and contaminated to be safe we have to toss them. It's a bummer but one of those things where no one expected it to happen nor saw it coming. So in the next couple weekends GC and I will go shopping to replace the furniture. Hopefully we can find something we love and for a good deal!

Lately GC and I have been exhausted! With the demands of his new job, keeping up with everything else around the house, and work for me... we crash at night. Not to mention the mornings come way too fast!

Anyway things are great! Ava now has the ability to actually see! So, she can now see inside of the womb and also hear us. She knows my voice the best they say... and I have been talking to her more lately. She is about 1.7 lbs and about 14 inches long. I love her already!
