23 Weeks...

Pregnancy Highlights:
How Far Along: 23 Weeks
Size of baby: Baby C is the size of a mango
Around 11 inches and weighing 1 pound
Total Weight Gain: Not sure.
I’m probably up 15-16 pounds (plus)?!?!
Maternity Clothes: Wearing a mix of everything.
Gender: BOY!! Baby Cullen!!
Movement: I can feel him more frequently now, he seems to kick the most when I'm laying  or sitting up before bed.  I love feeling him move around!
Sleep: Sleep is still great.
What I miss: The gym, running, being motivated to work out.  
I don't think I worked out once in December.  Besides a little bit of yoga at home.  I'm actually considering canceling my gym membership so I don't waste money.  I've been thinking about getting a treadmill, my monthly gym payment would cover the cost of a treadmill payment.
If any of you have a treadmill, what brand?  Do you like having one at home?  Use it often?
Cravings: Sweets! I wake up in the morning craving lucky charms! num!
Symptoms: Nothing this week.
What I’m looking forward to:  Our next appointment which is an ultrasound appt and under 2 weeks away :)
pics for the week… 
I'm wearing a maternity shirt that I haven't quiet yet grown into...
hence the bulge in the back.

Well it's NYE, this is my first NYE alone.  My hubby and I usually hang out at our place and have family over.  This year hubs is in another state working.  I'll be missing him but at least I have Gussy and it's not like I'll be up until midnight anyway.  Next NYE we'll have a baby to celebrate with and bring in the new year.  I can't wait!
2010 was a fabulous year, I married the LOVE of my life and I honestly couldn't be happier.
I can't wait to see what 2011 has in store for us...besides the obvious of our baby CULLEN!
We can not wait to meet our little guy, in just under 4 months.

I hope you all have a Happy New Year!!!!
Best wishes for 2011!!

Rissy said...

we have a treadmill and elliptical at home... It's so convenient I actually feel guilty when I don't work out... oh and I hate going to the gym looking like a scrub because i still consider it public... my mom, dad, and dog love me unconditionally so yea working out at home is great!

Gosh, your blog is so cool. I love following your pregnancy. 2011 is going to be a wonderful year for you! So you are friends with Melissa Stafford, right! Well I just wanted to ask you a quick question! Did you read Melissa's latest blog post: a recap of 2010? In it she talks about Grayson, buying stuff for Grayson, and lots of other "my life is so perfect" kind of stuff. But here's the deal: in 2010, her husband Chad lost his father. There is absolutely no mention of this in Melissa's long summary of what has happened with her perfect family in 2010. Don't you find this... odd. Well not odd actually but downright cruel and uncaring? I guess we shouldn't be surprised. Melissa didn't bother to go with Chad to the hospital and later to the hospice when it became very clear that Chad's father only had a few weeks left to live.Then - and this is the most incredible and cruel part - she couldn't be bothered to travel a few hours to attend the poor man's funeral when he passed on. Chad had to go all by himself. Would you do that to your husband? This has got to be one of the most selfish women I've ever come across, truly! I thought you should know. Happy New Year and all the best in 2011.

We have a treadmill (Gold's Gym - Air Stride Plus) & before I caught this darn cold was walking on it every day & LOVED it. It is so much easier to just get up & get on it!!

You are looking WONDERFUL Annie!! :) :) I will say though - looking at your wedding photos - I miss your long hair! Haha!!!

Have a great 2011 - Xoxo

girl you are too dang cute! I just love your bump pics! I have a treadmill here at home, not sure what the brand is though, something from Dicks sporting goods. I love it but I'll be honest I rarely use it... such a shame. It's amazing how hard it is to actually get up and walk down the stairs and get on the treadmill! pathetic I know!

Happy New Year! I have a treadmill-ProForm...got it years ago at Sears. I love having one at home, especially with a baby. It takes the excuse out of having to go to the gym. Granted, I haven't been on it in about 10 weeks...since I've been preggo and sick, but will be back on it for sure after the little one arrives :)

Krystal said...

You look great :) Your little belly is growing! I love the pictures!

Perfectly Imperfect said...

I get that you say you've gained 15 pounds, but where the heck is it?!? Because you are still tiny!!

Hope you had a good, quiet, relaxing NYE! It's your last one for a while! ;)

Jules said...

Annie, you look fantastic and I'm glad you're feeling well too! We've thought about getting a treadmill at home. It would make sense with all the money put out for the gym.

I hope you and Gussy had a good NYE :)

Ashley said...

Happy New Years Pretty lady!! You look so cute!! I had a doctor apt. this AM and I am predicted to have a huge baby...and I look it! I weighed 10 pounds when born, so I guess I Need to consider that possibility! eeks.
AND, I LOVE having a treadmill at home. I wish I had TV where the treadmill, but I did set up an old tv with a dvd player so I can at least watch DVD's and it makes it easier to do! :) I bet you can get some great deals on Treadmills this time of year. Mine is from Sears- not sure of brand, but my mom has had 2 from Sears as well, and we have had good luck.
