4 months!

That is hard to believe, 4 months already.  4 months pregnant sounds like I'm really pregnant.  Not that I haven't been for the past 16 weeks, but 4 months is like almost halfway there!  Crazy!  The baby is now the size of an avocado.  Apparently when I read last week that it was the size of an orange, they meant a small orange.  Because an avocado is way smaller than an orange.  Anyway.  I get an email each week that tells me about what is going on with the baby this week.  It's pretty fun.  Little Baby O can hear our voices now!  The little bones in his/her ears mean they can hear us talking!  When my belly gets bigger I'm gonna put my Beats over it and let him/her listen to something.  Probably not classical...even though that's supposedly supposed to raise their IQ.  Not sure about that.  I get bored listening to classical, so I'm sure my baby will as well.  I'll switch it up by the day...Monday's: Dave Matthews, Tuesday's: Lil Wayne, Wed: Adele.  I should probably throw some country in there too.  That way baby is well rounded :)


Okay, got off track there for a minute.  So, baby can hear us, what else??  Baby O has eyebrows, lashes, and hair filling in!  Once again, not holding my breath on the hair.  Taste buds are forming as well.  Lots going on within my tummy!


Here's my weekly bump update:



It's definitely starting to pop out.  Still a little smaller than I had thought I would be at 4 months, but it's definitely growing!  Jason can for sure tell now.  I definitely can tell.  My stomach just feels super tight.  Not like good ab workout tight, just pressure.  My shorts still fit...tested my jeans yesterday just for fun..they still fit too.  Not that I could wear my jeans right now, holy hot weather!  We have had 35 straight days of 100+ weather.  If I was super pregnant right now, I would not be happy.  I am so ready for fall.  

Anything else new with the baby...I think that's about it.  Cravings:  love me some Taco Bueno.   Mmm...but I always liked it, so that's nothing new.  Laying in bed last night, I really wanted Cheez Balls.  So incredibly random.  I haven't had those since like middle school.  Maybe this baby is taking after their Uncle Christopher ha.  

On a non-baby note:  Yesterday was Jason's 29th birthday!  How did we get to be 29 already?  Geez.  Officially old.  29 is not like ohh you're still in your 20's and can be put in the young adult category.  Nope.  29 is for real adult age.  Good thing I'm still 28 :)



I made the dogs wear these hats when Jason got home from work.  They were not happy with me.  Bailey's little tail was straight (which means she's either scared or not happy) and Riley wouldn't move.  Good stuff.  I ordered a cookie cake from the cookie place at the mall.  Apparently the only size they had was huge because this thing could feed a family of 8.  I have no doubt Jason can eat it though :)
