V-Day and The Bump

Posted on Saturday, February 18, 2012

For those who don't know, Jason has started working at a Mexican restaurant called Joe Vera's in Provo.  With his school schedule, work, and my work, we are basically on opposite schedules most of the week and don't see as much of each other as we used to.  On Valentines, of course Jason was working, so we celebrated by eating french toast at Kneader's for breakfast. Yum!  I also got very cute scavenger hunt around the basement :)  (Although some of the clues were written on some not so cute Walking Dead Valentine Cards....)


Today my brother and his wife arrived for LA with my cute nephew Asher!


He makes me want my own baby boy to be here already!
We went to Joe's and Jason served us.  It was fun to see him in action :)


I also realize I have been horrible about taking and posting bump pics to document this pregnancy.  It took a while for me to actually feel like a cute pregnant person instead of looking like I ate too much, and I am afraid the cute prego phase didn't last to long, I am almost in my third trimester and starting to feel big and uncomfortable.  But here are a few bump pics!

19, 20, 22, and 25 weeks.
So far my pregnancy has gone pretty well, but I can't lie I am getting more and more uncomfortable each day!  Work is still just fine as long as I take breaks to eat and sit down for a while.  Because I do a lot of standing on hard concrete floors, my hips have been super sore!  Sleeping is getting tough, hence this late night post!  I wake up having to pee or switch sides with a dead hip every hour or so and lay awake exhausted for a long time before falling asleep.  I haven't been having too many weird cravings, first trimester I craved salty things and hot dogs and mozzarella sticks, now the thought of eating a hot dog or salt and vinegar chips makes me sick!  Currently I just can't get enough ice and bananas!  Weirdly I read craving ice is a form of Pica (craving non-food items) and can be a sign of anemia, yikes!  But it is crazy to think I have only 98 days to go until this little baby is here!  I can't wait!
