26 weeks

...and it is extremely difficult to balance on one foot. (in heels, no less)

My latest craving? Greek yogurt with sliced bananas and peanut butter granola.

I love chocolate. I always have. It gives me heartburn, but I eat it anyway. It's worth it.

I am ALL belly. Strangers think I am much further along than I am.

Pregnant women get free stuff.
"Can I pay for these croissants?"
"Oh, just take them, dear. Don't worry about."

Little Caterpillar loves to kick Mama when she is trying to sleep. I miss sleep. I miss it so. On my belly. On my back. I miss consistent sleep.

I really don't mind that friends and family want to touch my belly...really. I am completely cool with that. It's the strangers that get to me.



Jon and I visited some good friends in Indy over the weekend. Their dog is in the top photos. Maggie...what a sweet girl. Coincidentally, our friend, Bobby, wanted to feel the baby move because he has never felt a baby move inside a belly before. However, it seemed like Caterpillar slept all weekend because I didn't feel much movement...until we went to sleep, of course. Jon would put his hand on my belly and little one would kick his hand every 10 seconds or so.

We also went to Louisville for a very special little girl's first communion. Gram made us angel and dinosaur pancakes when we arrived Sunday morning.

It was so great to spend the weekend with friends and family that we don't see too often. I wouldn't want to make the trip again anytime soon, mainly because of the comfort in travel and the having to stop and use the restroom every hour situation. But for quality time and memories made, it's worth it.
