It's Week 24 and I am surviving!! Just kidding, I have been very blessed with a relatively easy pregnancy. I have not hit labor yet, but so far I believe I will be pregnant again sometime in the future.
What is going on with me.....
1. I have hit the point that I now am getting up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom. (I HATE that!)
2. I still don't feel like I have that much energy. I get up and even after my shower I feel like I could crawl back in to bed for hours.
3. Lil Hoff is constantly moving. Especially at night when I turn on my side to go to sleep.
4. We are going on week number 2 with 100 degree temperatures.
5. I am having some shortness of breaths while walking.Which is not helpful when ones own mother believes the farther you can walk to your destination the better off you are.
What is going on with Lil Hoff....
1. Lil Hoff is measuring the length of a standard sheet of paper, which for reference is 8 1/2 inches long.
2. Lil Hoff's weekly weight gain is about 6 ounces now. Much of the weight being put on is from accumulating baby fat, as well as from growing organs, bones, and muscle.
3. Lil Hoff's face is almost fully formed, with eyelashes and eyebrows and a good sprinkling of hair on the head. I know most of the is the "norm" but I have my doubts about the whole sprinkling of hair on the head. I was as bald as I could be as a child, so let's hope that he does have a sprinkling of hair on his head.
4. Like I said before Lil Hoff is moving quite often now. Farmboy is always trying to catch him moving but at this point has not yet.
5. Grandparents and Aunts are going crazy over him already. We have received several gifts already, so I thought I would share a couple with you.
This is from Aunt Sara....they are Lil Hoff's first pair of Big Smiths. I'm sure they will come in useful while riding in the gator with Farmboy!
And then what kind of Farmkid would Lil Hoff be if he didn't have a pair of Carharts, so Aunt Kayla bought Lil Hoff some. I can't wait to see him running around in these!
Then Grandma Hoffman had to go to John Deere to get some parts, but couldn't pass up the clothing section or the opportunity to buy Lil Hoff his very first John Deere outfit. Too cute!
Grandma Light then couldn't let one side of the family's preference be honored without the other so we now have duelling tractor shirts....John Deere vs. Farmall...good grief!
And then Aunt Sara went to South Dakota on vacation and saw a little Bamm-Bamm shirt and couldn't pass it up for Lil Hoff. Do you think she is saying something??
Then Aunt Chara has been in Oregon for some schooling and working on a clinical and brought back Lil Hoff's very first book. The pictures inside are amazing! I can't wait to look at it with him.
So Lil Hoff is already being very spoiled by both sides of the family, and something tells me this is just the beginning :)
