Back again! Believe it or not, this week did feel like it went by quickly, but there's a perfectly logical explanation: we've been busy :) Never fails.
Company arrived on Saturday and it feels like we've been go, go, go ever since. We spent the last two days in Pilanesburg which is about 1.5 hours from our flat in Pretoria. It was a nice time of eating food I didn't have to cook and sleeping in an air-conditioned room. Is it weird that those are my vacation highlights?
In addition to living like royalty, we also drove around Pilanesburg National Park, a big 5 game reserve. While we only saw 20% of the big 5, we got in enough giraffe, zebra, kudu and impala to satisfy us for life. I'll do another post with pictures from this trip later.
Today's picture comes to you from the B&B we stayed in, and the belly looks like it took quite a leap from last week. I'm wearing a skirt I bought from Old Navy last year that I call my faux maternity skirt; it's got this panel that's supposed to be folded down but it does more good pulled up over my belly button ;)
All that said...
Weeks: 21
Weight gain so far: No idea. The B&B didn't have a scale so I couldn't weigh in this morning, and I'm not about to go weigh in on my scale now, at this time of day. I've been on vacation and eating like I've been on vacation, so I expect it has been a heavy week.
Wearing maternity clothes? No. And they can't get here soon enough.
Got any prego stretch marks? No...*hesitates*...no.
How am I sleeping? Great, in air conditioning.
What do I miss? Air conditioning (yes, I'm also noticing a trend).
Feeling anything in there? Quite a bit, especially in the evenings but not always. He's been a lot more active this week than last.
Aversions or cravings? Suffice it to say, yes.
What’s the gender? Boy.
Any labor signs? Nope.
How pregnant do I feel? Is being hot and tired a pregnancy symptom? Then I feel very pregnant.
Belly button status: Still in.
Still sporting my wedding rings? Yep! Not a very interesting week in the prego department, I admit. Ty did get a new outfit, his first pair of shoes, and a little crocheted hat this week! That was exciting :) And no, I didn't buy any of it for him.
Till next time...
What a great picture!! Meredith, you are beautiful. I probably already said this, but I'm so glad that I get to follow these pictures. :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks for keeping up with things, Audrey :) I wasn't going to do pictures religiously, but I think it adds to the overall documentary )
