OMG


BAM!  20 weeks in all of my glory.  Getting ready for bed


The bump is growing at a very rapid rate these days, and I have mixed emotions about it.  Sometimes I'm in love with the growing belly because I know my body is doing what it needs to for our baby.  Other times I get slightly worried about gaining this weight (10lbs), only being 20 weeks and feeling huge, finding something to wear and trying to constantly eat healthy.  I am feeling absolutely wonderful, aside from some minor aches and pains.  The energy I have right now is great so we keep moving along.

This weekend like almost every weekend that we stay in Leander was completely dedicated to home improvement & maintenence.  Dave has made significant progress in the nursery and he says that he should be completely done by Friday.  The room is painted and all of the trim has been selected and cut.  Now he is sanding down the edges and getting ready to put the floor boards and ceiling panels on.  Yay!

I cut the grass this weekend (go me!), both the front and backyards, bathed the dog, grocery shopped, did most of the cooking and lunch-making and cleaned, cleaned, cleaned.   I love our spacious home, but more room means a tons more cleaning. 

This week it's back to work for both of us, and then we are hosting my parents, sister, brother, sister-in-law, and niece for dinner and a sleepover Friday night!  I cannot wait.  We have not seen the Jimenez family since the wedding in January so I'm really excited.
