23 Weeks: Things I Want to Remember.


We've now reached the point where there's just no hiding this baby bump. Gone are the days of my entire closet being an option--a snug option, sure, but still an option. This baby is bumped out and he is staying. 


  • He loves pumpkin. So obviously, he takes after me. I've been drinking pumpkin coffee every morning, and he just moves all around. I thought it was just because of the coffee, but when I had normal coffee this weekend, he wasn't moving much at all. But once I got a pumpkin spice latte, the dancing began. He's got good taste. 
  • It was our first family trip! Sure, baby J didn't really get to do any of the fun stuff, but he was along for the ride!
  • When I got home, Gatsby hugged my stomach and just laid there for like an hour. He was so excited I was home, but he was especially excited to be reunited with his little brother. He had a lot to tell him. 
  • Today is 99 days until Christmas! The most 99 wonderful days of the year! It's so crazy to me that it will be the last holiday season I have without a little human. I'm just soaking it all up...every morning, it's just me and the baby (and Gatsby, obviously--see above) listening to the Autumn in New York radio, drinking pumpkin coffee...life is good. 
23 weeks down, 17(ish) to go!
