Update and a pregnancy picture!

What we have been doing:

I hit the 26 week mark in my pregnancy!

 At 26 weeks :

1.) I always want Mexican food, Taco Bells $2 meal deals are a constant temptation, anything spicy send it my way!

2.)I frequently get heartburn, it could be because of the spicy food but I will take the heartburn as long as I get my spicy food!  Tums at night have become a regular staple.

3.)  I have been getting pretty bad lower backaches, to the point where I can barely stand up straight by the end of the day, yes I am going to ask my doctor about it.   Anybody else have this problem so early in their pregnancy?

4.)  Sitting for three hours on hard chairs at church about kills me!  I have started going home at Sunday school... shhhhh   don't tell anyone!  My body just can't handle sitting for three hours straight.

5.)  This little girl is a lot lower than Malana was and she is constantly kicking me in the cervix, sometimes it is so hard that it makes me jump.  She is very active at night, and I LOVE FEELING HER MOVE!

6.)  We have a few names that we like, but lets face it Travis and I like weird names that most other people don't like, so I have stopped telling them to people, because quit frankly I am going to name my kid that no matter your opinion so why hear all the negatives?  But I am still open to other suggestions!

7.)  I have to take an iron pill because I am anemic : (  But ever since I have been taking the pills I have a lot more energy : )

8.)  I have to get Malana to stop coming in my bed in the middle of the night, because I am getting NO sleep!

9.) Right now I weigh at 26 weeks pregnant what I weighed with Malana at 10 weeks pregnant.


Malana has been:

1.) a pet shop playing fiend
2.) gaining a bit of an attitude
3.)  decided that she never wants to go anywhere, including preschool, dance, the library etc... but she especially hates shopping
4.)  she is still my little cuddle bunny!
5.)  She LOVES anything to do with art, she can literally sit and color for hours.
6.)  She thinks it is funny to make weird faces when I go to take her picture!  ( it scares me a little that she looks so much like Calvin from "Calvin and Hobbes" in the picture below )


See the resemblance?



The End!

How fun! Isn't that great, people give their opinion about names even when it is bad! Seriously, it isn't their kid to name. Someone did that with Jacob. Drove me crazy! I love the pregnant picture! You're just so cute!

I'd whistle, but it doesn't compute and I can't in reality anyway :)

This post cracks me up! Oh how I wish I was still in Ucon and we could be going through this together. Adi and Malana are so alike, and it seems our pregnancy's are very alike too. My little one sat SO LOW for so long, and my back hurt so bad I've been having physical therapy for it. But, I LOVE feeling her move. I'm so excited for you guys. And don't worry. We like weird names too. Hey at least they are original right. That way you know she won't be graduating with 9 other Ashley's :)

You look great. I still want to hear the names you have thought of. I like Malana's name.
