Baby Bump 24 Weeks

Here I am at 24 weeks.  As you can see, Baby is growing and so am I. 
I am feeling so good these days.  I have random moments of tingly happiness all over, kind of like the feeling you get after you have a massage.  It's wonderful!  My energy has returned and I'm actually able to do more than sleep all the time.  Baby Brother is kicking up a storm these days.  One night, after eating Taco Bell, he gave such a swift kick that Ryan was able to feel it.  That was a cool, if unhealthy, moment.  I am craving all kinds of savory & salty foods.  Sausage biscuits and gravy have been at the top of my list lately.  Tessa thinks it's hilarious that the baby doesn't like broccoli (it gives me horrible indigestion) since she doesn't like it either.  She claims that she is allergic, ha!  Cottage cheese with fruit is hitting the spot as is Captain Crunch cereal.  I'm trying not to go too crazy with food, but I am hungry all the time.  At least I am still able to exercise.  I walk Anabelle while Tessa is at school, I spin and I do yoga.  My yoga instructor told me this week that I'm still doing really good with balance.  I can pick things up off the floor without a problem but I find when I squat down it takes longer to get back up.  I never noticed how often I do these deep knee bends, especially at work.  But I notice now when I have to give an extra oomph to stand back up.  My doctor gave me a good report at my check up today.  I will go back in four weeks.

You look so cute!! Isn't is funny the food you like when you are pregnant?? I've heard they end up liking what you ate a lot of when you were pregnant) With Kate I had to have pizza all the time (and she loves it!). With Lincoln I ate meat/man food ALL THE TIME...and of course Lincoln loves all of this now. So you need to stock up on Captain Crunch and Sausage/Gravy for this little boy :)
