16 weeks


4 Months!  Almost half way there, crazy to believe.


Cooking time: 15 weeks, 5 days
Weight gain: +1 I weighed myself fully clothed and after I ate breakfast (still making excuses even pregnant)
Maternity clothes: Still living in yoga pants, leggings and my old jeans (with bella band).  I ordered some white skinny maternity jeans, white linen maternity shorts, and some jean bermuda maternity shorts for Hawaii!
Food cravings: Still going with the red meat craze.
Food dislikes: Nothing yet.
Missing: sleeping through the night and just feeling normal.  This past week I just plain old haven't felt great, maybe I'm fighting a cold or something but I've had bad headaches, tummy aches and the tiredness is back a bit.  The best way to describe it is a hungover feeling, but clearly that's not the reason :)


What we've been up to: 
Not much, which is nice!  Rollie painted our master bathroom and it looks great.  We don't have the money to fully renovate or bathrooms at the moment so painting them to compliment the 1980's brown and cream tile is the best we can do.  I had a horrible headache on Tuesday, maybe even I migraine (not really sure what to compare it to) so I stayed home from work and literally did nothing.  I've been catching up on movies, reading and pintresting (yep its a verb now).

    thanks for sharing all of this! I am really liking following your thoughts as each day passes. I wish I had done/thought of something like this so many years ago, then I'd have the memories to look back on. Keep it up, I am into it!

In the thick of it

Hopefully monthly blogging won't become a habit.  Life has just been crazy.  April was a big blur. We host a bi annual pick up party at work and for the months of April and October I'm pretty much a working like mad or exhausted from working like mad.  Then it took a week to feel normal again! I'm also working split days at the moment (off on Sunday/Tuesday) and its really not fun.  I can't truly enjoy a weekend and its really hard to decompose on Sundays knowing that I have to work the next day.  Hopefully I only 2 more months of it until Piper can start at Lily's preschool/daycare. Rollie was a rock-star Dad as always, taking care of not only the girls but me too.  I know there were days that I was grumpy and not myself.  They did come to visit me one day during the craziness and that helped! Lily is wonderful 90% of the time and a threenager the other 10%.  It's absolutely amazing what a 3.5 year old absorbs and their tiny little imaginations are just the

May (or better known as my Birthday Month)

I took the girls to the Museum again-it was a hot one! That afternoon we enjoyed some Popsicles on the deck. One night after work we made a Home Depot run and then decided it was too hot to cook so we took the girls to Pieology. We brought bagels to the teachers for Teacher Appreciation Week. We celebrated May The 4th with our Star wars gear. I had a work dinner one evening and we spoiled my Manager with baby stuff for his soon to be baby girl. Lily, Ariya & Ensley had their first official sleepover at Ensleys house. We had framily over for a late cinco de mayo dinner. My mom sent the girls super cute matching dresses. Rollie set up a day date for us in Napa.  We went to Freemark Abbey, Goose & Gander for lunch and then Cardinale.  It was such a lovely day just the two of us.  Janet was in town so she hung out with Piper and Lily went to Kerry and Kristen's and enjoyed the pool and a nap on the Farm.

Comparison

I started reading blogs almost 5 years ago. It first started with following a few photographers when I was laid off and thinking of pursuing a career in the photography field (that didn't happen), then it was home improvement blogs after we bought our first house (and I still follow many of those), and most recently pregnancy blogs that have now in a way turned into 'mommy' blogs.  I really enjoy reading a select few women's journeys through motherhood.  I even follow some of these women on Instagram and in a way some of us have become IG 'friends'.  Two of them posted about a topic today that I really can relate to.   Comparison is the thief of joy.   We are surrounded by Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Reality tv, Blogs and Pintrest that it is WAY to easy to find ways to compare our lives with those we know as well as complete strangers.  I work in the luxury wine industry and I meet people everyday that don't even blink at dropping a mortgage payment worth
