14 Weeks

We made it to 14 weeks and I've only had one melt down. Christmas eve Josh and I were getting ready to go to church and apparently my belly had popped out that day without letting me know. Everything I tried on made me look like I had a gut. I've always had a healthy size rear end but I've never had a gut before. Now, I've been introduced into the world of big butts and guts! When I started crying because nothing looked good on me and I felt fat, Josh made sure to give me a hug and remind me that I'm pregnant and it's just going to get worse.

So enough about me... the baby is the size of a lemon this week, 3.5inches long. That's a lot of growing in the past 14 weeks! Josh's parents got the baby a baby ring for Christmas and I love it! I never had a baby ring but it's a big thing in his family and I'm glad our baby will carry on the tradition.

Josh and I talked at lunch today about names for our little one. I'm still pretty set on Mia Jean and Josh hasn't picked a boy name yet. He likes Amos Joshua but I'm still really leaning towards Kale Joshua and I'm working on bringing him more towards that name.

We got the nursery closet completely cleaned out yesterday and we are now getting much closer to painting. I'm still thinking we wait until we know what gender we are having before we paint the room. I'm thinking neutral colors and then adding pops of color with the bedding, curtains and decorations on the wall.
