My Dancing Machine

Crawford loves to dance, especially in the nude after bath time!!  Recently he has moved on from just spinning round and round.  I'm not sure where he is learning all of these moves, but we absolutely love to watch!!

Almost Halfway There!

It's hard to believe that I am almost to the halfway point.  I go for an ultrasound next week, so praying everything looks good and baby boy or girl is growing like he/she should.

I'm starting to get nervous about getting everything together.  Beds for Crawford's new, big boy room should start getting made in the next couple of weeks which will make me feel a lot better when those are complete!  I need to start painting his room, so it will be all ready.  Then I can start getting everything ready in the baby's room.

As for being pregnant, so far so good!  I have been so lucky to have such easy pregnancies both times!

How Far Along: 19 Weeks
Total Weight Gain: 5 pounds
Maternity Clothes: I didn't make it to five months officially, but was able to hold off until about 18 weeks or so before they made their debut, but now I've just embraced them!
Stretch Marks: Luckily I haven't spotted any more new ones.
Sleep: Last night was the first night I couldn't get comfortable - hip tingling galore!  I had to get the extra pillow out for in between my legs and that helped a little.  It appears the days of sleeping on my tummy are gone for now. :(
Miss Anything: Sleeping on my back and turkey sandwiches
Food Cravings: Coleslaw
Anything Making you Queasy: Brushing my teeth is making me gag like crazy!  I thought the 2nd trimester was supposed to be the easy one!  I've had more symptoms now than I did in the first.
Starting to Show: I definitely look pregnant now!
Belly Button In or Out: Still in.

Signs of Brotherly Love

Crawford is definitely going to be in shock when he's not the only one in the picture needing attention, but it's moments like the other day that I know what a wonderful, big brother he is going to be.  As we were driving home from school, just chit chatting, the following conversation ensued.

Me: "Crawford, what do you think we should name the baby?  We need to have a girls name and a boys name and when mommy goes to the hospital to have the baby we can choose."

Crawford: Tears started rolling down his face and he says, " Me don't want my baby to go to the hospital.  Me be so sad if baby have to go to the hospital."

Break my heart!  I tried to wipe away my tears and explain to him that all mommies and babies have to go to the hospital.  I think we are definitely going to have to take one of those tours, so he is a little more comfortable with the idea.

My little bruiser has such a kind heart!
