We enjoyed Christmas sooo much and had a wonderful time seeing family & friends. It sure is a different experience being pregnant with added perks. I was laying on the couch and my dad told Addy to get up and help with something and Addy said what about me. Dad said I needed to rest!! HAHAHAHA, I said I am fine and got up to help, but I think I will miss the pregnancy excuse :) It felt weird coming back home to a quiet house in North Liberty after a crazy holiday. My "nesting" kicked in right away with wanting to clean & organize. I hope it stays this way because I love having everything be "perfect". I am getting super anxious and excited for this little baby to come with less than 60 days now! Oh and it is official that my sister is also expecting in June!!! I am super excited to have little ones close in age. they will be finding out the sex in early Feb. So I am sure we will be dying to find out even more.
How far along? 31 weeks
How big is baby? Size of a Coconut
Total weight gain/loss: +28 not bad for the holiday feasting
