T Minus 10 Weeks

 Here's a baby bump update.

Today, I'm officially 30 weeks along,

which means only 10 to go!!!

And it can't come soon enough,

I mean I can't stop crying over American Idol for Pete's sake.

What is wrong with me?!

As you can see from these photos -

I also can't stop playing with Picnik.

It's just so much fun!

This pregnancy has been much different than last time,

but one thing I do miss is all the exercise I was able to

get when I was pregnant with Walter.

We would run and bike and then walk almost daily the bigger I got

because it was summer and we were outside all the time.

It's been tough to be pregnant over the winter

and feel like it's too cold to ever go outside and do anything.

But I'm still feeling great and
have gained about 15 lbs so far,

so if it goes like last time -

I'll probably gain about 1 or 2 lbs each week from here on out

and then I'll be right in there for the average weight gain
during pregnancy of about 25 to 30 lbs.

Before I go, 

I'll give you the answers to some common questions -

No, we don't know if we're having a boy or a girl.

But we're very excited to see what we get!

No, we don't have our hearts set on specific names -

We do have a list of boys and a list of girls names that we

add to and subtract from whenever we 

think of something new or are over one of the old ones.

There are about 8 to 10 options for each sex, 

so we'll just have to see which name wins!

Yes, Walter is going to have to get out of his crib -

But not anytime real soon.

We're hoping to transition him to a toddler bed 

sometime this summer when the baby outgrows the bassinet.

Stay tuned to see how that goes!
