14 Week Update

So our little Special K has grown about half an inch since last week & is now busy with thumb sucking, toe wiggling, making urine(not so cute but equally amazing), and breathing amniotic fluid as the liver, kidneys, and spleen continue to develop. Lanugo (thin, downy hair) is growing all over baby's body for warmth. Pretty cool, huh? I can't believe we are already over 100 days pregnant! Everything is happening so fast!

Although my belly really hasn't started to pop out yet, I am starting to feel a little uncomfortable in my regular clothes so it is almost time to start looking for some cute maternity clothes! I am so excited about shopping for maternity clothes!!! Mitch on the other hand, I don't think he's that excited about me spending money on clothes I'll only wear for 5-6 months but that's his penny pinching logic. haha I love him!!

I think that the dogs may be starting to sense the baby now b/c they are beginning to get even more clingy which I didn't think was even possible but all three of them are constantly under my feet all day long. I really need to kick this sleeping in until 8:00 every morning thing and start walking them again b/c they are kind of starting to get on my nerves. Oh, one thing about the dogs...I am super excited that we got our Furminator shedding brush from Amazon this week. We have already used it a little and the thing is AWESOME!! We are going to bathe the dogs tomorrow and then once the girls dry, we'll attack them with the Furminator. Then hopefully I will only have to dust the furniture and vacuum twice a week instead of every day! We want to keep down on dog hair/dander as much as possible when Special K arrives so hopefully our new "toy" will do the trick!

One thing I am kind of bummed about is that Wal-Mart is no longer listing our crib. They have it listed in the cherry color but not in espresso like we want. I still need to call their customer service center and see if they are going to restock it but it looks like we may be looking for another crib. I know I should think that maybe this one just wasn't meant to be but man I love that crib!! I am going to start looking around online to see if I can find one elsewhere.

Well I guess that about sums things up about this week so far. I still have not felt any movement as far as I can tell. I am still getting some slight cramping so I know that everything is going well in there and with this heat I have been drinking a ridiculous amount of water.
Here is my 14 week belly picture. I can't wait for something to actually start popping out!
