View at your own risk....

Ok, I'm warning you, I'm posting a bare belly picture. It's further down the page so if you think it might disturb you don't look. I'm just amazed at how big my stomach has gotten this week. It seems like it's huge all of a sudden. I hope it doesn't have to do with all the Halloween candy I've been eating. I've tried to limit myself to 2 snack size bars a day. I just really want to eat sweets right now but I'm trying to work in some fruits and veggies as snacks.

In house renovation news, our bathroom is moving along. Apparently we do have hot water in the basement shower which has been great so we can shower at home instead of at the gym. I doubt I'll make it there for a workout now that I don't need to shower there. I've posted a few pics of the bathroom first in case you want to skip the stomach.

Bathroom remodel....

Wow, it's going to be a long 4 weeks which is the estimated time of completion for our bathroom remodel. Originally we were planning to shower in the basement bathroom but it appears that the people that lived here before didn't plumb it correctly. In order to shut off the water to the bathroom we are remodeling the hot water to the basement shower also has to be shut off. So basically our options are a cold shower or going to the gym. It's going to be a long 4 weeks. Plus, our house in covered in dust from the demolition (see pics). I'm sure it will be worth it when it's done.....

I've posted my 23 week belly picture. The baby is getting more active and moving around especially after I eat.

Behind on the belly pics....

I'm a little behind and this week my picture is 21.5 weeks since I was lazy. I'm starting to feel the baby move more now, not all the time but every once in a while. I'm gaining about a pound a week and my stomach is definitely getting bigger. It's have to believe I have another 18 weeks to go, I'm afraid to think how big I'm going to get.

Soon we will be remodeling our bathroom which I'm really excited about. Our bathroom is really ugly but we've been waiting to remodel since we still haven't sold the condo. I wanted to have it done before the baby is here since there will be tons of dust from the construction. I've posted some pictures so you can see how truly ugly it is.

We're making progress on the nursery. Jamisen has been working hard priming and painting the nursery. It was a big job to cover all the dinosaurs but I'm sure the baby will appreciate it. I can't wait to have the furniture and everything in there. Hopefully it will be done by Thanksgiving.

Nursery is getting started!

I have been kind of lazy with posting lately so I'm a little behind. We purchased the rocking chair for the nursery (see pic). It's exactly what I wanted and it was on sale which was a bonus. We also ordered the crib and dresser, also on sale. Jamisen put the first coat of primer on the nursery while I was at the cider mill. What a great husband!! Since he worked so hard yesterday today we are going to the Lions game. He has a built in designated driver for a while still.

I didn't post my 20 week belly pic last week since we were so caught up in getting the ultrasound pics scanned in. But we did take a pic so I posted it. I'm definitely growing and the doctor says I'm at a good size and weight.
