26 Weeks...

Pregnancy Highlights

How Far Along: 26 Weeks
Size of baby: Baby C is the size of an eggplant.
Almost weighing 2 pounds!
Total Weight Gain: Up 21 pounds!
I figured out where a lot of the weight is, my bubble butt! As my sister referred to it as, haha.
I can tell my thighs are growing as well.
Maternity Clothes: Still wearing a mix of everything, some maternity and some regular.
Gender: BOY!! Baby Cullen!!
Movement: It’s different every day, some days more than others.
I love feeling him move around! :)
Sleep: Sleep is good.
What I miss: Nothing.
Cravings: Sweets…I now wonder if this will ever change.
I have started eating cinnamon rolls for breakfast again and I LOVE them.
I mean wouldn’t you….

I still haven't heard from my nurse on if I passed my GD test or not.  I should probably call today.
And I said I bruised from getting a little bit of blood taken.
Here is what my arm looks like a week later...
I have never bruised from giving blood, I think the nurse messed something up.

Symptoms: Nothing.
What I’m looking forward to: Billy painting the nursery which should happen in the next week or two!
I'll share the colors soon.
I ordered Cullen's changing table on Monday and we got it yesterday. Talk about quick shipping!
Thanks overstock.com :)

pics for the week…

My hair is kind of large and in charge today...
AND ladies thank you so much for the comments you always leave on these pictures.
They are always so sweet!!
I have been cutting my own hair ever since I took out my extensions a few months back so when ya'll say you love my hair makes a gal feel good.
I personally miss my long (faux) hair! ;)
and ready for work... 

 New goal:
Work out 4 times a week, instead of every day.

Did that nurse blow your vein?? I had that happen to me once when I had pneumonia.. it was bruised for a good 3 to 4 weeks.

Erica @ All About Aleigha said...

That bruise is awful, something must of went wrong because that is not normal. Aleigha would love to have breakfast with you, she ask for cinnamon rolls about 3 times a week :) hope your having a great week!

Mallory said...

Your shirt is so cute! And I'm totally jealous of your hair-cutting skills! I wish I could do mine :(

Jenn said...

You look so cute!

PattyAnn said...

I bruise very easily and my arm looked just like yours right after my blood was taken. But I bet the nurses who do that do it so often that sometimes they are not paying close attention to what they're doing.

And you look amazing! So does that cinnamon roll ;)

Katie said...

You have got to be the cutest preggo I've ever seen!
They got you good with those needles, ouch!

Melissa said...

That bruise is terrible!!

Tamela said...

I love that shirt you are wearing. So cute!

Shannon said...

I can't believe your 26 weeks! You look awesome, it's all baby bump and nothing else :)

S said...

The higher the hair, the closer to God! Just remember that! You are such a cute, little pregnant lady :)

Neely said...

You are precious Annie!

Lizzy said...

You are gorgeous! Lovely lovely! I know what you mean, I chopped my hair off like 4 years ago and really regretted it. Now it's grown back but I'm thinking of chopping it again AHHH! Decisions decisions.

Tatum-LeTard said...

You are absolutely adorable... and that hair!!! Girl, I would do anything to be able to style my hair like that! I know you must be so excited about this time in your life. I can't wait to read more!

Michelle (michabella) said...

You are a smokin' hot momma!! Cute belly! Way to torture me on that pic of the cinnamon roll...OMG! And the nurse DEF did something wrong. You should NOT have bruised like that!

You and my blog friend Chloe are on the same baby schedule! http://idontshineifyoudontshine.blogspot.com/

Sarah said...

you such a cute preggo.... and i love big hair... what product did you tell me a while back that you use for voulume? I have super thin hair and have a hard time plump'n it up....

also in the way of movement.... the doc will tell you to do kick counts to make sure you feel him every so often but everybody is diff.. I went to the doc so many times scared cuz I didnt feel her.. however they would so a sono and she was fine.

Ashley said...

You are so cute Annie!

The bruise on your arm looks so painful! :( I had that happen to me once after having blood drawn, but not as bad as yours. Ouch!

Brown Girl said...

You are such a gorgeous pregnant lady!! Love the outfit!! I want a cinnamon roll but I just can't justify it, enjoy it for me!

Jax said...

chelsea said...

that bruise looks bad, but you're such a cute little preggo!

Shari said...

Such a cute preggo. Seriously, adorable.

Just a Jersey Girl said...

That bruise looks really bad. Love your outfit!

Mrs. Mama said...

Beautiful, as always! And I LOVE your top! I am sure you passed your test since they haven't called you... I never got a call either. Hope all is well, I just can't believe you are 26 weeks already! I know I say that every week!

Kaycee said...

21lbs looks GREAT on you!!! I'm so jealous of your pregnancy style. Adorable. And those cinnamon rolls look amazing!!

Kirsten said...

Agghh your arm. Totally looks how mine does when I have blood drawn.

♥ Marcy ♥ said...

I KNOW YOU HEAR THIS FROM EVERYBODY BUT YOU ARE A SMOKN' HOT MAMA!!!! and I don't know how you cut your hair and get it to look that good but I am jealous... will you come do mine???

Meg said...

You are so adorable! I can't wait to see the colors that you guys have picked out for Cullen's room. I'm so excited for you.

Megan Ashley said...

Adorable shirt and hair, you inspire me as a Momma and working girl to get a little more jazzed up every day! Can't wait to see Cullen's nursery colors and the finished product!

Kristen said...

I can't believe you bruised that badly just from giving blood, that's crazy! You still look absolutely adorable! How exciting about putting the nursery together, that always makes it so much more real. Not that having a belly and feeling the baby move isn't real but having the room all done is just a whole other level of "real"! :-)

californiadreamin said...

Holy moly, yeah your nurse did a number on you!!

Erika said...

You look great! And I can't believe how much you bruised! That's crazy...I can't wait until I feel my little one move:-)

Unknown said...

you look so great & I am so jealous; if I ate a cinnamon roll every morning I would be HUGE.........actually I think I just gained a pound from looking at it :)

Modern Camelot said...

Gah, that nurse definitely messed something up, what a bruise! Yikes :( You look adorable though, so hopefully thats a consolation :)

Sarah said...

What a gorgeous baby bump you have!!! And I love to see a stylin' mommy-to-be!!!

Anonymous said...

Gwen said...

You poor thing. No ones arm should look like that. Don't go to her ever again!!!

You look fabulous!!!

XOXO

Melissa @ i carry your heart said...

I'm sure you passed your test. When I failed the first one, they called me 2 days later. Can't wait to see the nursery paint!

katie@tulsadetails said...

There is no way you could have gained 21 pounds!! You are so tiny!!

Matt and Vanessa said...

That is so crazy that your arm got so brused from getting your blood taken! Ya the nurse must have hit something!.
I really do love the hair. How do you get so much volume? this is something i need to learn I would love to have volume for my hair but I'm not sure what the best products are. Any tips?

Lindsay said...

MMM Cinnamon rolls :)

Katy Mary said...

Damn I wish I worked out everyday! I guess I'm lazy haha. You look FAB as always and your outfit is totally cute in the photos. That bruise is nuts, it happened to me once after a blood test too but hasn't happened since so maybe it was just a silly nurse. Can I have a cinnamon roll now? lol

Jillian said...

ok when I am 26 weeks I hope I look half as glamorous as you do!!

I think the nurse had to of messed something up, I bruise a little form getting blood taken... but never like that.

<3 Happy Thursday!!!!

Molly said...

You are amazingly adorbs! And duuuude. I've drawn a lot of peoples blood, and that should NOT happen. Just say no if you get that nurse in the future!

brynn said...

let me just say, you are THEEEE most precious pregnant girl ever.

and the first time i ever had to get blood taken, i walked away with a huge bruise like that, that lasted about 2 weeks. to this day, i am terrified to let someone draw my blood.

A Real Housewife said...

not gonna lie...that pic of your arm made me gag just a bit! my arms do the same thing when they take blood. i look like a drug addict for two weeks!

you are looking gorgeous! and i'm so jealous of anyone that can do hair and make up well...i SO did not get that gene!!

Whitney @ EHFAR said...

pretty pretty :)

Annie said...

Looking CUTE!! That bruise looks like it hurts..poor thing!!

Crazy Shenanigans-JMO said...

Oh my gosh, your poor arm!!! You're looking great though!

lg2006 said...

When I was pregnant, I ate TONS of sweets. Ridiculous amounts and I feared that it would never go away! Right after I gave birth I was still scarfing down cupcakes etc but then all of a sudden, I stopped craving all that sugar and it went away. I say all this to say, eat without guilt! You will be fine!
I cant get over your poor arm! Hope that doesnt hurt as bad as it looks!

Petchie said...

Wow you are looking great for 26 weeks along! I hope I will be able to stay in such great shape like that when I eventually have a baby. And I hope your arm feels better, it looks pretty bad I just hope it doesn't hurt as bad as it is looking from that picture!

xoxo

Perfectly Imperfect said...

How do you not even look pregnant in these pictures?! And how do you only have 14 weeks left?? Is it only flying by to me??

Jules said...

I’m so glad everything is going well with the pregnancy! That cinnamon roll looks yummy. I’m hoping your arm doesn’t hurt as much as it looks like it hurts. Ouch!

I can’t believe you’ve been cutting your own hair. It looks fabulous and so do you. You’re one of the cutest preggo chicks I’ve ever seen…for real.

I can’t wait to see the nursery!

Iva Messy said...

ouch!! that looks super bruised!!

you look so cute!

Shannon said...

Seriously, girl you are too much! You're such a cute preggo lady! And yes, the hair is so adorable, love it!

I can't believe your arm. My mom's arm does that every time she has to have blood taken. I know I bruised a lot easier and more when I was preggo, wonder if that has something to do with it?!

Can't believe how fast your pregnancy is going!
