Here I am at the end of my 26th week. And yes, I put up the Christmas decorations this weekend – I just couldn’t wait any longer.
26 week belly
The Nursery
The guest room has officially begun the transformation to a nursery. Right now it’s a construction zone, but will hopefully resemble something kid friendly in a few weeks.
Dave is putting in a custom closet (which will hopefully hold both baby and Jess’ overflow clothes).
Kickin’ in Virginia
We spent the weekend down in Virginia and during the trip I finally started to feel some kicking. Dave was even able to feel a few kicks (although he kept thinking he was feeling me laughing, which I was).
Becky loved my stomach. 
Sarah came to visit and we compared stomaches. She’s due 3 weeks after me. 
Heartbeat
This morning we had our 24-week check-up. We got to listen to the baby’s heartbeat, but no ultrasound for another 10 weeks. Everything sounds good and strong. I still haven’t felt movement so Dave and I were both worried about that, but we were reassured that everything sounds fine – and hopefully I’ll feel something soon!
Belly!
Here’s my belly at 24 weeks. I finally popped in the last 2 weeks.
