Laughed way to hard and long at the sloth whispering sweet papayas. So we are at 22 weeks! Fact: there are 22 yards in a chain. Yup, I didn't care either.
This week baby weighs an entire pound! Since I only weigh a "couple" more than her, we are basically twins. But seriously only 1lb? Am I having a litter? Couple babies in the belly, few in the thighs, gaggle in the butt...
Guess I shouldn't blame it on the fetus. I've really taken to this whole eating for "two" idea... I was all cozy in bed on Saturday and Andrew was out in the living room - closer to the fridge I might add - so I figured I would try to get him to bring his wonderful pregnant wife a little snack. Not too much to ask right? Well, this is how it played out:
I got my own snack. Baby also "accidentally" ate Andy's Mars bar today... ohhhh snap.
We have started to seriously look at baby names now and wowza it is stressful! Girl's names are hard! Too girly, too common, too slutty. What a big decision... We don't want to name her "to the world" before she is born, but honestly, we probably won't even have fully decided on one until the last minute.
As I mentioned last week, I felt a the first kick and it was a big one we were both able to feel. For days after that I didn't feel anything. Was getting a little worried until Wednesday night when I ate some chocolate and put on 16 and Pregnant. She LOVED it... or hated... we'll go with love. She was moving around like crazy! Thought it was a one off, but then last night she was squirming around all though Catfish. See! We are twins I tell ya! Underbite, love for shit reality TV, covered in cheese... I have a vivid memory of sitting on my tire swing when I was about 7 wishing for a twin sister... who said wishes don't come true -- albeit 23 years later.
