It's a baby bump!

Currently: 19 weeks along (about 16 weeks in this photo)

Estimated baby size:
A large heirloom tomato

How's it going:
Feeling good! Mostly energetic, rarely feel nauseous. Sleeping fairly well. I might be coming down with a cold.

Baby movements:
I felt the baby move for the first time last week! The day I reached 18 weeks, I was sitting in a meeting at work and felt a little bubble movement. My eyes nearly popped out of my head! Since then I have felt it more often during the day. I LOVE feeling the baby move! Haven't noticed any patterns yet.

Cravings:
Nothing really. Wish there was something to report. Definitely have my sweet tooth back since my first trimester, when it was strangely gone.

Aversions:
Can't think of much. No desire for canned tuna since getting pregnant.

Missing:
Chai tea lattes (which would probably be OK to drink, I'm just being overly cautious) and fried eggs with really runny yolks. Wine comes in third.

Looking forward to:
My next sonogram! Can't wait to see the photos. Not going to find out the baby's sex. It'll be a great surprise on the baby's birthday.

We are almost done with Phase 1 of our guest bathroom renovation!  Here are a few items that are pulling the space together very nicely:

Including:

1. Urban Outfitters shower curtain

2. New white windows and white trim

3. Rome toilet paper holder (and matching towel rods), from Signature Hardware

4. Silver mirror, from Target

5. Toto toilet

6. Blue mosaic for an open shelving area, from Stone Source in downtown DC

We took down all the 1970s style wallpaper and painted the room a pretty blue that we had mixed at our local hardware store.

Everything looks great so far!  We still have to take care of a few more things:

• Finish painting the door trim and door white
• Install shelves in the open shelving unit
• Choose a new light and install it

Pictures of the room will be posted when it's done!
