My number four and Third Little Lady Love,
During 23 weeks we were able to relax a lot.
I am definitely in slower than normal season, which has been great to catch up on energy and Mommy duties.
Wondering how I’ll get back into the busy lifestyle of shooting and editing all while carrying you around… in your little temporary housing space that consumes me.
I am feeling great and do have to deal with moments of exhaustion.
Doing my best to fight through them or sit on the couch for a quick upright nap!
Daddy will come in from work and catch me snoozing while sitting up and the kids playing around and making messes. 🙂
Moving is becoming slightly more difficult as you are growing and I pee a lot more now! Such a sexy and dreamy life I lead.
I am feeling you WAY more now and can see my belly move through my shirt on occasion.
No one thinks your movement is as cool as I do.
I know Daddy will be more than tired of my request, “OH FEEL FEEL HONEY {she’s kicking again}!!!!” once that full term pregnancy date arrives.
Parx loves you SO much. She calls you by your name and says how much she LOVES you.
Anything Mommy does, so does baby. If I shower, you shower. If I eat turkey, you eat turkey. If we all go to the park, YOU go to the park too.
I love that she has physically embraced your existence. More than ANY of us have. Which is quite wonderful for me to witness and helps make you more real for me too.
She is SO happy she got the girl SHE wanted.
I have a feeling Edie may not embrace you as much – as she doesn’t like anyone taking Mommy’s attention.
Pierson really wanted a baby brother, but I know he’ll love you just as much as the other crazy girls!
We are consuming more smoothies to get some fruit and veggies in my bod withOUT the butter I like to put on my cooked veggies.
They are tasty and nutritious. I need to get on the ball with better nutrition, because with you… I love high calorie foods.
Darn it. 🙂
Okay I need to go feed the girls some lunch.
One day, not too far away, you’ll be one of THOSE girls I write ABOUT.
Awh. My sweet girl, growing and kicking up a storm within.
I’ll write more soon, as I am already 24+ weeks!
.love.

Totally Popped! You can just SEE that belly all round and big. Always happens around 5-6 months. I get puffy in the hips and arms and then BAM it shoots out through the bump. 🙂
