25 weeks

These pictures always feel so awkward, but since I haven't really documented any pictures of baby girl's pregnancy I thought I'd better start before its too late.  I am feeling really well. I am exercising everyday which feels great.  I know that it won't last forever so I am trying to get it in while I can. I am also waiting for the weather to turn nice so I can get out and walk our beautiful county road. 

She moves a lot and it never ceases to amaze me of the miracle that is inside me. I keep saying to Aaron, "Can you believe that I am growing our child inside my body."  Its not his fault, but I don't quite think these dads can quite understand. What a gift of being a woman and mother.  I am measuring right on track and have gained just over 11 pounds.  The other day I asked Brooklyn if she wanted to feel her sister moving and she very matter of factly said, "No."  Anna has felt her move once and thought it was really neat. They're always asking when she is coming and how many more months.  They know she is due on the 4th of July and they seemed concerned about how we are going to be able to go to the parade and rodeo if she is coming at the same time.  



This is the first purchase I have made for her.  These Aden and Anais blankets are my absolute favorite blankets of all time. They are a tad pricey but I think worth every penny.  I love to swaddle and there is nothing better.  They are light weight and perfect for a Summer baby. They also make a great nursing cover up and are great to throw over our stroller.


Some days I still can't believe we're having a girl.  It has been so long since we have had a baby girl I am looking forward to hair bows and adorable church dresses.  Poor Carter.... the girls keep saying that he is going to be girl trapped!

Yay I'm glad to finally see you, you're so tiney, and just that little bump. I can't wait to be able to feel our little one move, I just think it would be the coolest thing in the world. I know you love those swaddlers, I hope I can find them in deserted OKC. XOXO
