Pregnancy - Week 15

While I was taking my week 15 Baby Bump picture...

Baby D - 15 weeks

A little boy wanted to get in on the shot!

Jaxen - 175 weeks

Jaxen has no concept of what is means to be a brother - or to have siblings…but I have started the conversations with him. All he knows is he likes babies and wants to help mommy take care of one! That’s a start!

Overall, I feel really well! So thankful. I can eat pretty much anything - although I still crave all things carb-related. And pasta. And Vanilla Coke. I did make it to the gym this week and hope to get back in the habit….trying not to gain extra weight! And so far - so good. Still holding steady at a 6 pound gain. 

Ok…so I’m still napping. A lot. I have gotten used to these daily naps and they are really hard to give up. I feel guilty for taking them…but here is how I rationalize it - If I don’t nap during the day then I want to go to bed the minute Jaxen does. If I do nap, I can stay awake and hang out with my cutie husband! Good or bad? Not sure. Haha.

I hope to start getting baby things out of the attic soon. That will make everything more real and more exciting!!!! I have started a list of a few things we need before Baby D arrives (thankfully, it’s not too much because we kept everything from Jaxen). 

Not too much is different in the last few weeks…but that’s my official update!

  1. Hey Sis! I really want to help with some baby stuff. Let me know what you guys are still needing and I will try to catch some stuff on sale in the upcoming holiday sales. I have really been wanting to FaceTime with you all but just never seem to have the right timing. It is always too late by the time I get around to doing it. Maybe I can do it one morning this week. I am thinking about you all and love you very much. Kiss my nephew for me.

    1. Thank you! I'll let you know what is needed... Really waiting on the gender before making a final list.

  2. I napped forever! I think til Carson was 5! Well I laid down when he did at least... Although I think there was a time when I didn't because Ben gave up his naps early, but once he went to school Carson still did so I'd rest with him... Napping is fun! Maybe I should take up this awesome hobby again ;)
