Week 23

Can I just say I love pregnancy right now?

My former aches and pains are a thing of the past (although I don't want to jinx anything, so I'm knocking on wood here) and I just feel pretty good all the time. There is still the occasional round ligament pain every once in a while, but I don't see that as a bad thing: it's just another sign of the baby doing really well in there. I've started to feel more hungry again and have to admit that I often give into temptation and indulge on late night snacks. Pringles Hot & Spicy are my favorite.

Highlight of this week was probably Klaas being able to feel the baby for the first time on Monday! It was literally just one tiny kick, but he felt it nonetheless. Then about two nights ago, he got some more kicks from his tiny daughter/son.

Yesterday, my mom took me and my brother to the store we've registered at and we put a whole bunch of extra clothes (mostly larger sizes, for next winter) on our registry. I checked when I got home and apparently we've chosen a lot of pajamas in different sizes, haha! Hopefully this week I can make an inventory of every piece of clothing we already have, to check if we have enough in every size. I've also added some more items to the registry, such as extra bedding, a bouncer, some bath supplies (e.g. washcloths, Q-tips, nail scissors, etc) and a playpen. It still needs a lot of work, but I'm excited about picking out what we want!
