24 Weeks. :)

We were blessed with another beautiful afternoon yesterday. Gracie and I spent some time playing outside. This child loves her flowers! She's been checking on them daily ever since the tiniest bit of green broke through the mulch around the trees and mailbox. Now, the flowers are blooming and I love watching her crouch down next to them to inspect their progress. :) We are so ready for spring!

The weeks continue to zip by and I reached the 24 week mark on Tuesday. Ethan is weighing in at a little over a pound and is about as long as an ear of corn! There is no doubt that this boy is growing! I feel like my belly has just popped on out there over the past couple of weeks. I can't even imagine how it will look 16 weeks from now!

Things have been going well since my appointment last week. I've been staying active during the day, but have also made a point to take it easy while Gracie is resting. I carry a water bottle everywhere I go now to make sure I'm getting plenty of water throughout the day. I'm also sleeping well for the most part. I'm so tired by the time I go to bed that I don't have any trouble falling asleep.

I've been saying it for weeks, but this little guy is active! I love it! I feel him throughout the entire day, as opposed to only feeling him at certain times. My next appointment will be my glucose screening test on St. Patrick's Day!
