Well, everything has gone through with the sale of our condo and the purchase of our new house in Victoria!
We will officially be in Victoria on March 20th! We're both so totally excited :) At that point I will be almost 33 weeks along in my pregnancy. I sure hope the baby holds out until at least 38 weeks! Over the last week I have been packing up a storm and feeling so relieved that my husband and I had gone through all of our drawers and storage items over the last few months, making it very easy to pack things up.
The baby has been kicking up a storm lately so much so that I can watch my belly bop and bounce around for 30 minutes or so at a time, it's awesome! Jeff and I are trying to narrow down our choices on names, but it's pretty scary knowing that we are deciding a name for our unborn child .. we hope we pick a good one! We're going to keep our choices a secret until the little one is born.
Anywho, I'm zonked and should lie down and rest. Take care, and thanks for reading!

I'm going to be a mommy!
Well, if you haven't heard yet, now you know! I'm 24 weeks along in my pregnancy with our first bundle of joy. So far the pregnancy has gone pretty well. Luckily I did not have any morning sickness, instead of throwing up food, I inhaled it. You know how some preggos lose weight at the start of their pregnancy? I did the opposite and piled it on. Oh well, it's a healthy amount and if I didn't eat I would feel nauseous.
Jeff and I have decided to go with a midwife for several reasons and so far have had a great experience. I've had all of my blood work done and went in for the ultrasound at 19 weeks. We are so thankful that both the blood tests and ultrasound came out great! We got to see our little bean moving around and made us really think.. wow.. there's something alive in there! :)
So far the last 3 weeks have been the best weeks of the pregnancy. I have quite a bit more energy and I look pregnant. The only complaint I have is SLEEP! Or, lack thereof. I guess my hips have been swelling up like crazy and causing sciatica. Within 5 minutes of lying down on my side my hips fall asleep (like you sit too long cross legged), and then I usually wake up in the middle of the night with horrible pains in my hips, fun times! Thanks to Jeff's bright idea of icing them before bed I have minimized the pain and am sleeping a bit better.
The newest occurrence with the pregnancy is Braxton Hicks contractions. I had no idea that these could occur so early in the pregnancy, and thought it was common to get these when you were about 9 months. I guess not! They're just the tightening of my pelvic muscles and usually don't hurt. However, they have been hurting for me and usually take my breath away. I guess i'll be somewhat prepped for the real deal?
Anywho, that's all for now. Thanks for reading!
