25 weeks! More Than Half Way!

So we have made it more than half way now. ! We have named our new little girl, but Alex and I are keeping it a secret. Her initials will be ABH. We will be having her baby shower on June 10th 2011 in Birmingham AL. Her bedroom is not ready yet but hopefully after the baby shower we will get a move on things. We have been very busy going back and forth to AL. Alex won temp custody of Hannah and Cole so we will soon be a family of 6. 

Baby ABH has still been staying very low on my bladder. She kicks and moves around all the time. A very active baby indeed. My uterus is about an inch above my belly button. She is growing so large in there. I can feel when she moves up to the front of my belly it gets rock hard and I can rub on her. I am very excited about having a new little one join our family soon.

 I have been craving Ice-E's or Slushes and Cookout- Banana MnM milkshakes. At the moment I am craving a huge plate from a BBQ place down the road called Thigs, that would include ribs, pulled pork, potato salad, and coleslaw with extra sauce! Here in NC the weather is getting nicer and we have been able to go to the beach a few times to develop a little sun. To be honest I am not looking forward to being 8 months pregnant in the dead heat of a North Carolina summer. Its so very hot and humid here because we are so close to the coast. 

My next OB apt is at the end of this month and we will be able to see little ABH. We have to have another ultrasound done due to the position she was laying in at the time of the first ultrasound. They were not able to get all the shots that they needed. Also at that same apt is my sugar test. They make you drink this very nasty sugar filled juice and then test your sugar an hour later. When I had this done with Madilyn I had a very bad crashing period after this test, that I got so tired and just passed out. We are still very excited because we get to see her again that day. We love our little baby ABH so very much !
