25 Weeks

Here I am at 25 Weeks...I still took the photo in the morning, because it's really the best time for Grant and I to take a photo! Usually by the evenings, he gets home later than I do, and I cook dinner and put on some comfortable pants for wearing around the house or PJ pants, and so, I don't usually want to take a photo in one of those outfits. I also noticed that I've worn a black shirt in all three pictures that I've posted...I'm going to have to change it up next Tuesday and wear a different colored shirt. At least they were all three different black shirts! Ha-Ha! :) I think that my face is getting fuller, and I'm not very thrilled about that! I'm hoping that it's just the angle, because I don't notice it in the mirror. I think I might take a photo face forward rather than turning my head to see. :)

Update: I took a photo of myself face forward to see if my face had gotten fuller, and it definitely looks like it has...not good!! I don't like that at all, so hopefully, I can prevent it from getting any more full in the next few months!

How far along? 25 Weeks
Total weight gain/loss: Not really sure, but I think about 12-13 lbs. I go to the Doctor on Thursday, so I'll know for sure then.
Maternity clothes? Yes...but I can still wear some non-maternity shirts depending on the type of shirt. I can still wear some of my t-shirts, as well as, some of my longer shirts.
Stretch marks? Nope...crossing fingers that I don't get any! :)
Sleep: Waking up once or twice a night to go to the bathroom, but overall, sleeping fairly well.
Best moment this week: Today when I woke up and realized that I was at 25 weeks, and I only have 15 left to go! Yipee!! :)
Movement: Yes! He is moving a lot, and I love it!
Food cravings: Nothing in particular...
Gender: Boy
Labor Signs: Nope, hopefully not for quite a while longer.
Belly Button in or out? In but getting more shallow
What I am looking forward to: Decorating the Nursery! and my next Dr.'s Appointment.
Weekly Wisdom: I don't know...I guess I don't have any this week! :)
Milestones: One more week behind me and only 15 Weeks to go!

I had to edit this post and add one more photo...everyone keeps commenting about Banks being in every photo! He is the best dog. So loyal, and he loves me so much. I hate to say it, but he is definitely partial to me over Grant. Probably because I spend the most time loving on him, but he is a loving dog, and he just comes and sits with me in these pictures every week. I never have to say a word. He sees me go to the door, and he comes and sits down right next to me. He's awesome! So, the first photo that we took today, he decided to lick my fingers / hand to see if there was anything on them that he might want to eat and Grant caught him in the act. You can also see his rooster toy in the photo below. He carries that toy around with him everywhere, but he dropped it to be in the photo. :) See proof below...
I must admit...I love this dog!!

You look great, and there is nothing wrong with wearing a lot of black...at least I hope not anyway.
