WEEK 25: THIS HAS BEEN A HUGE WEEK!!!

I have the following for you today:
1.  You can feel AND see her moving now.
2.  New bump picture
3.  New Nursery Photos!

Busy Bee Bess is not only kicking about every 3 hours now, but YOU CAN SEE HER DOING IT!  This is about the time I say absolute and total shenanigans on the 'I Didn't Know I Was Pregnant' people.  If you can see your stomach moving from underneath - or if OTHER PEOPLE can see your stomach moving from underneath your skin, and you don't think you're pregnant, then you should probably go to the doctor.

It is so great to finally be able to share her activities with other people.  She pretty much kicks on command now when Zach talks to her, and Robyn was even able to see a kick from across the room.  She's getting so strong!  That's our girl!

And how about this bump picture?  Don't tell me that I'm not getting bigger!  Zach and I were http://www.peopleofwalmart.com/ for Halloween, and this is how I went.  Yep - I went with an exposed belly.  Looking back at the pictures, it was only half a bad idea.  I hope I didn't gross out too many party-goers.  And no, I wasn't drinking that beer.  I shouldn't have to keep telling you people that.

We had to finish painting the nursery this weekend, too.  I know, I know, we have 15 weeks left.  My sister is moving in on Saturday to stay through January, so it was sort of crunch time to get the painting finished.  We get the crib on Saturday, and then we just need the changing table.  After that, we just move the cradle to our room, and have that kiddo!  Probably won't get a final picture of the room for all of you until January when Mer moves to Joe's, so the below will have to tide you over.

Yep...I made daisies and busy bees for my little Busy Bess.  Wall clings would have certainly been easier, but I think there is something tangible and inviting in the hand painting.  Enjoy!
