25 weeks

Had a doctor's appointment on Monday for the glucose tolerance test and everything came back great. The only thing is that my hemoglobin is a little low, so they put me on an iron supplement. Started wearing maternity pants on Tuesday since my dress pants would only zip up half way. My jeans still zip but the belly band is starting to get really annoying because it wants to come up in the back. I was wearing it and not maternity pants in these pictures so that may make a difference on how pregnant I look.

Nursery

Here's a peek at what Jason and I have been up to the last couple days. I know we may be jumping the gun on getting the nursery set up, but I was just too excited not to! It's not finished yet, and the colors probably aren't totally accurate because of the flash on the camera, but it's close.

Here I am at 24 weeks! I'm going to try and take a new picture every Saturday, but do forgive me if I don't complete this goal.

I've been feeling Layla kick and move all over the place, but with Jason working 3rd shift the last two weeks, he hasn't been able to feel her yet (she moves A LOT when I'm laying down in bed). This morning, I woke up and just laid there. Sure enough she started moving and Jason finally got to feel her. His eyes got real big and was like, "Was that it?" Then he wondered if we'd be able to actually see her. After a little while longer, we saw my belly move up. Totally awesome feeling!

We've got all the fixin's for Layla's room, and we're going to start putting it all together soon. I'm hoping to paint tomorrow and Monday, so be on the lookout for nursery pictures. :)

I'm growing...and it's definitely a girl if you haven't already heard...Layla Mae. :)

The 2011 Blizzard

We survived the blizzard! We've been couped up for two days now, and tomorrow is another snow day. I'm ready to go back to work! I think we got between 14-16" of snow, but it's hard to really tell because the drifting was so bad. Here are a few pictures I took of Jason digging out. I felt bad that I couldn't help him, but I wouldn't have wanted to risk falling.

Here's what we were faced with when the garage door was opened. It was up to the middle of Jason's thighs...however high that is!

The rest of the driveway had about a foot of snow.

A few of our neighbors digging out.
