happy new year

First post of 2016! Haven't posted since Christmas because things have been crazy. We decided we should move into a 2 bedroom place rather suddenly and gave notice to our current landlord at the end of December. Then began the panicked search for somewhere to live come February 1st. Luckily, after many duds, we found a lovely 2 bedroom suite for the same price we're paying now for our studio apartment. The location isn't as convenient but we'll make it work. Hopefully for a while because moving is the worst. I hate packing and organizing and getting everything sorted. It's all very stressful. Then add on top of that being 26 weeks pregnant. Not the best of times.

We're making it work though! Just hit the 26 week milestone today! Baby boy is kicking like crazy and getting much stronger. Brandon even felt him kick a couple days ago which was very sweet. He was definitely excited and it warmed my heart to see. Also went to the doctor and she said I could start taking Zantac for the horrendous heartburn I've been having and it has greatly improved my life. Now I can actually eat and not die.

Got a lot of baby stuff in that I'd ordered online. All the Dumbo stuff arrived from the Disney store and the outfits are so cute I tear up every time I see them. I can't wait to dress this little guy in these snuggly adorable outfits. We also got a great deal on the bedding set during Sears baby days so the crib will be looking adorable as well. We will be borrowing a sort of beside the bed crib for the first few months but we'll probably end up using the crib for nap times. It's crazy how close it's getting! Only 14 weeks til due date and possibly less than that before baby actually arrives!

It's scary to think that I'm almost in the third trimester. Been having a lovely time with the second and as much as I hate being pregnant I'm super nervous about getting to the end result. So in some ways I just want it to be over but in other ways I wish I could stay in the second trimester a bit longer. Conflicting pregnancy emotions.

I've also started a new prenatal yoga class in Cloverdale and it is amazing! The teachers name is Tobey and she just recently got back from mat leave herself. She is so relatable and just explains everything so well and makes it feel like it's actually benefiting. I'll definitely sign up for the next session too. I should be able to squeeze in another 6 weeks before the end! We also have the prenatal classes started next month which should be fun as well as my birthday coming! So February will be quite the busy month.

I'll post when this hectic preggo life allows!
