HOW FAR ALONG ARE YOU: 24 weeks

MATERNITY CLOTHES: Yep. Maternity pants/shorts all the way. Mostly normal tops though. A few maternity tops.

STRETCH MARKS: None so far. Lets hope it stays that way!

SYMPTOMS: Starting to get a lil uncomfortable leaning over to paint toes, pick stuff up off floor, etc cuz my belly gets in the way

SLEEP: No problems here. Sleeping great!

BEST MOMENT THIS WEEK: Finding out that all the Account Managers are getting a little bonus appreciation gift for the hard work we've all been doing during integration. Obviously I don't feel like I've contributed much since I just started the position a couple months ago, but hey, if they want to include me then who am I to stop them?! :) There were several things to choose from and I think I am leaning towards a getaway vacation with Lenny to LA. whoo hoo! We also get two comp days. Love it!

HAVE U TOLD FAM/FRIENDS: Yep. Everybody knows now. Old news. lol.

MISS ANYTHING: Sleepin on my belly. Working out hard core. Drinking frozen drinky drinks..

MOVEMENT: Oh yeah. This lil guy moves around all the time now.

FOOD CRAVINGS: Sugar is my friend. 

ANYTHING MAKE YOU QUEASY: Nope. I did have the flu or something the other day and was down and out for a while. I threw up a couple times and felt like complete death, but luckily it was just one of those 24 hour bugs and I was fine the next day. That was the worst I have felt in a LONG time though. I felt so bad I just wanted my mommy. :(

BABY IS A-----??????  Boyyyyyyy!

BELLY BUTTON IN OR OUT: In but pretty much flush. Grody. 

WEDDING RING ON OR OFF: On

What happens at home...

Boss told me to go ahead and work from home today since it's the day after a holiday and will likely be pretty quiet. My parents were scheduled to watch Bellz, but since I ended up working from home she decided to stay here and play instead. We had a little talk about how she needed to be responsible and would have to entertain herself, because even though I am at home, I still have work to do so I wouldn't be able to stop and play with her or whatever until I'm done working. Guess she got the hint about being responsible. She just comes downstairs and is like “Are you good down here? You need a water or some beer or anything?” (this is at 9am mind you) BA HAHAHAHAHAH! I was like “Umm nah I’m good, thanks. I usually pass on beer for breakfast. Especially when I’m pregnant and on the clock.”

Then about 30 min later, she comes down with a bowl of apple slices and a bowl of peanut butter and tells me she made me a snack for while I'm working. I love this girl! I swear. She can be SOOOO stinkin sweet sometimes. :)

Happy 4th of July!

Hope everyone had a great 4th! We thoroughly enjoyed ours. We took the kiddos to the ofallon festival thingy at TR Hughes Wed night. I was curious how Alex would do with the the fireworks, especially since they didn't start til 10:15, but he LOVED them. Every time one went off, he said "whoaaaa!" And laughed. Then he would clap his hands. It was too cute! Today we met Lauren and Violet down in St Charles for the parade then went to my parents for a family BBQ. Great day all around. Happy birthday America!

My sleepy lil boy

Love this pic. He looks so sweet!! Makes me want to smooch his face off.
