20 Weeks and Landon's First Shopping Spree

Ever since we got to see little Landon I have been on cloud nine. All of the cramping, backaches, leg aches etc.that have crept up on me this week have been totally worth knowing he is just having a blast in there.

I am just so anxious to meet him now. It has been nice talking to him and calling him by name this week. I have to say that this little guy is SO SPOILED already!!!! I mean honestly...

Wednesday right after we left the ultrasound, there was NO time for lunch...my mom and I headed right to Baby Gap to do some serious damage now that we officially knew what we were having. I have to say that I went a tad bit overboard (I know that is not like me at all;) and a few hundred dollars later (yes, I know I'm crazy) this is what we walked out with:



















































 Most of the stuff I bought at Gap is bigger 6-9 and 9-12 Month for next Spring. I did get the a few pairs of jeans on sale which was nice...but for the most part it's been a little difficult finding Fall stuff right now. But, I do love what we bought and I can't wait to put these little outfits on him!:)

Then on Saturday my mom and I went to Parisian and they had two full racks of Carter's stuff on clearance. I was shocked when we scanned one of the outfits and they came up $6.97!!!! We quickly realized that everything on the rack was that price and...again...I went a little crazy. But, this time I got some 3 and 6 month soft stuff for him to wear right away:
















I had to add this pic in because Chuck had to check all his little brother's stuff out. Doesn't he look cute in his post surgery onesie? He has to keep it on so he doesn't lick his stitches.
















And here are a few things that my mom surprised me with for Landon on the day of the ultrasound. Landon is so lucky to have a Grandma (actually she wants to be called Mi-Mi:) that loves him so much already:
























Okay, now onto a brief 20 week update...I am HALFWAY there...Woot!:) We have been so busy this weekend that I will have to take and share my five month picture another time. But, I  do have to say that this week has been great.

How far along? 20 weeks.
Total weight gain: 7ish lbs.
Symptoms: Some cramping and aches all over...he is growing!!!
Maternity clothes? Still mainly pants...I am working a few maternity tanks into the rotation though!;)
Best moment of this week: Finding out we are having a healthy baby boy!!!!!!!!:)
Food cravings: Chocolate...this could become a major problem!:)
What I miss: Just being able to drink in general...
What I am looking forward to: Just holding my little guy in my arms!:)

your baby's the size of a banana!
Baby weighs about 10.2 ounces and measures about 6.5 inches. She's still got a lot of growing to do though. Can you believe you're halfway done?
your baby at 20 weeks
  • She's got working taste buds.
  • Now, she's gulping down several ounces of amniotic fluid each day -- that's significantly more than before.
