Halfway there

We made it 20 weeks and I don't know if I want to cry or celebrate. This whole pregnancy is going by so fast and I'm trying to enjoy every little second.

How big is baby: as big as a mango, and at our appointment Friday she was 10oz which is right where she is supposed to be:)

Weight gain: surprisingly Dr. Craig said I hadn't gained any from my last visit so hooray!

Symptoms: the heartburn is not getting any better, and I'm sure kyler is just sick of me complaining about how awful it is! Any thing and everything gives me heartburn and tums are my best friend right now.

Fun things: now that baby can hear me I am loving reading my scriptures out loud so that she can hear too :)

Sleeping: fantastic! I still get those crazy dreams every other night. 

Food cravings: really I haven't come across a craving that "I need or I'm going to die!" I have feelings that things sound good to eat but I'm perfectly fine if I don't eat it. No not really any cravings.

Gender: pink pink girl! It's so nice to finally know now:)

What the baby has gotten so far: little girl is spoiled so much already and I am beyond grateful for everyone's kind and generous gifts! My cousin Jessica got her the most darling outfit, binkies, bottles, and blanket, we have received diapers from both Grandma Webb and Grandma Hoggan, I also went through all my baby stuff with my mom a few days ago and brought home some darling church dresses I used to wear plus my baby blessing dress that our sweet little one will also wear. 

What mommy has gotten so far: my sweet mom and sister got me a darling Alex and Ani bracelet with a pink charm of a stork to represent me as mommy, my sister got an "aunt" one and my mom a "grandma" one so we all three match. I love it!

What I'm looking forward to: feeling our sweet little baby more and more, the placenta is in the front of my tummy which is why I haven't been able to feel to much going on unless I'm consciously paying attention. The other day while driving in the car Maroon 5 "Sugar" came on so obviously kyler turned it up and I felt little baby dancing (okay probably not dancing but moment:) she must like that song as much as her mommy and daddy. I'm also looking forward to spring coming, the weather has been fantastic this week and I'm eager to get outside and go on walks again. Bring on the sunshine! 

Pink or blue

We found out the gender of baby webb on February 19th at 8:00 in the morning, and let's just say baby takes after me in the fact that it was stubborn and didn't want to move much that early in the morning.

The baby's legs were crossed and it didn't plan on budging anytime soon, I was so worried we wouldn't find out the gender that day and I didn't want to leave disappointed!

Finally the big moment happened! After much nudging and verbal encouragement.. The legs uncrossed!

And we had ourselves a baby...

Girl!! Tears just started flowing and I was so relieved to know. I had felt all along we had a little girl in there but didn't dare say anything to anyone except Ky, plus I had a dream a few weeks earlier about having a little girl. We are so excited for this little one to be in our family and now all the fun PINK stuff begins :)

And to add to the cuteness this was the text I got from Ky later that day, he keeps calling her his little princess and I can already see the love he has for her and it makes my momma heart just thump.

18 weeks + Valentine's Day

V

The time is just flying and I can't believe we are almost half way there! 

How far along: 18 weeks and 2 days

How big is baby: size of a sweet patato, 5.5 inches and 5 oz

Weight gain: not much in the past few weeks thank goodness

Symptoms: heart burnnnnn! I keep telling myself it's because of Valentine's Day. Get it? :)

Sleeping: honestly if I could.. I would sleep all day:( which takes me to this...

But really? It's true.

Food cravings: valentines candy and chocolate.. Um. I'm also loving dr. Pepper again.. And not so much Diet Coke. I know I'm crazy!

Gender: we find out next week!! We are so excited! 

I also need to add that Valentine's Day was the first time I actually felt little baby kick! It was so sweet laying in bed that night and to finally feel something, I like to think it's the baby's way of saying "love you mom! Happy first Valentine's Day!"
