Week 25

Saturday we celebrated 25 weeks of a healthy pregnancy....by re-organizing our 'office' so we can move items I still had in Logan's room into the office closet. It went really well....I was very proud of John as he threw a lot of things away or we gave them to Goodwill. We ran to Target and bought some Rubbermaid bins and put all the 'stuff' he still wanted into some nice bins (we took these items out of boxes from when we moved almost 2 years ago....yeah....). The funny thing about our 'office' is that we are almost never in there. We both have laptops for work....and our personal laptop....so there isn't much of a reason to go in there. We are trying to think of what to do with the room....hm...

So now Logan's room is a clean slate! It feels good to have all that organizing done. I also finally ordered the bedding!!!! We really like it a lot (I hope I will in person as well). It is from JCPenny....called Mad About Plaid. It is chocolate brown and aqua-blue.....the comforter contains patchwork squares...plaid, stripes and polka-dots....sounds busy, but it is really cute. It should arrive within 2 weeks....then we will color-match it and make some decisions on how to paint the room. Yay!

We still need to make some last touches on our registry (at Babies R Us)....but then I think we are good to go (from that aspect!).

Everything really is moving along at a great pace, but we still have to pick out furniture, discuss daycare/work options for after Logan arrives, pick a pediatrician....and a bunch of other really important items. Time for me to make a list!!! :)

As far as this last week was concerned, Logan had his days of moving randomly and moving a lot! Of course, I love the days when he moves all the time....watching my belly move is just sooo cool! We keep trying to hear his heartbeat on this little 'speaker' device we got from Babies R Us....but we can't hear it. I will bring it to my next doctor's appt. next week and they will help me find it with this device.

Most nights I have no problem sleeping...sure I get up a bit more often to go to the bathroom and I toss and turn...but last night was horrible! This has happened to me on a smaller scale every so often and I cannot pin down the problem. I woke up choking (on extra saliva...sounds gross...and it is, but I've heard this happens to some pregnant women). Well it is kind of scary to not be able to breathe all of a sudden....but it is slightly funny in the fact that I try to sit up right away...and well, think about it...sitting up with these massive stomach muscles I have, is not that easy! Anyway, after about 5-6 choking/coughing fits in 1.5 hours time (I thought I'd have no voice today)....I drank some water and took a tums and slept sitting up....it worked....I was slowly able to go back to sleeping on my left side by 2:30. I would say the problem is that I drink a lot of milk at night and with my pills before I go to bed...but I do this every night...so I can't blame the milk. And this doesn't happen that often, but when it does, it's annoying!

Anywho...besides the bad night occassionally, everything is just great and things are moving along just loverly! :)
