I can't believe it has been almost 2 weeks since I last posted. Wow, time flies when you are having fun! Or- when your life is too chaotic to stop the roller coaster to update a blog! We are still working endlessly on our house renovation and hope to have our new laundry room flooring done this week along with at least base cabinets for our kitchen so we can get our granite counter tops measured. At least I finally have a plywood counter top to prepare meals on and the horrible dry wall dust is finally gone! Now I am just praying we get the remaining cabinets put in before Christmas so we can host my family (about 20 people) for Christmas night. My fingers are crossed!!!! And hopefully sometime this month- before xmas eve, I can start my Christmas shopping! I am usually done in November but this year because of the house construction I pretty much haven't even begun. YIKES!
On the baby front........ I am still in regular clothes which is wonderful but also in the back of my mind I am wondering why I am not showing more. We will be 19 weeks tomorrow and I know by that time in my past 3 pregnancies I was definitely in maternity clothes. I should be thrilled with this instead of complaining, but since it is different then the past it makes me think about it. (Not stress about it yet.) I have felt some small movements probably only once or twice a day at this point but at least that is reassuring that the baby is doing ok. I know we are all looking forward to Monday when we have the ultrasound and the regular monthly checkup. Hopefully it won't be too crazy with my bringing two of my kiddos along with R & S's family in the room.
Oh and I finally told my boss and my coworkers the news last week. It went much better than I anticipated which was a huge relief. And just because I say I am not in maternity clothes yet doesn't mean I am not bigger. My lovely coworker told me right after my announcement that she thought my hips were bigger and I was WIDER. Needless to say I haven't spoken to her since! Just kidding. But seriously, why do people insist on insulting a pregnant woman? Some people just don't get it!
My husband is out of town for work again but luckily he is scheduled to come back home tomorrow. We can't wait!!! Hopefully my princess Morgan will be feeling better by then too. Poor baby- she is so congested and is coughing like crazy. I hate it when my kids are sick.
More updates to come next week after the appointment.

Ohhh!! You should email me who said that to you at work. I have a good guess. ;) Do you get maternity leave?? Glad to hear it's going well!!
Remember Kim to that this is not your baby (as in egg and sperm) so the genetics are different and it may be why you are carrying different. It's bound to be different right?! Anyway, you know maternity clothes are comfortable! I love mine (must be why I like being pregnant!)
You work with stupid people and I know that first hand...hopefully you didn't give them this blog address when you made the announcement! You are not wider and your hips are not big...you look great!

Don't worry! I am not sharing this blog address with anyone here at work!
Hi Kim! I'm sorry you have stupid people at work! You're right, when you announce that you're pregnant, it's like giving out a free pass to ask stupid questions, and make mean comments! It's so not right!
*hugs*
