Stretch marks...seriously?!

Ok, so last night when I was going through my nightly regime of plastering my belly with Burt's Bees Belly Butter I noticed some indentations in my belly, like I laid in one position for too long...but I don't lay on my belly. After some further investigation I realized the are stretch marks! OMG, I'm freaking out right now! I do have stretch marks from when I was younger and I grew really fast but those are white, easy to tan and easy to cover up with a 2 piece swimsuit. These new ones are right on my belly, red, and will be impossible to cover! Geez, the perils of being pregnant huh? It all is worth it for the end result but still, it SUCKS!

A work in progress!

Picture #1 is a few of my favorite outfits (Shawn picked out the sweatpea one!)
Picture #2 is the room thusfar

Ok, so it's been awhile since I've posted anything but honestly not alot has been going on. I had a doctor's appointment on 3/11 and everything looks good, she is growing appropriately and her heartbeat sounds wonderful!

Still no names but we are throwing a few around. I have proposed Ivie, Peyton, and Lia to which Shawn has responded "they're ok". He still isn't proposing any of his own names but I guess we have a few months to go! I am 25 weeks tomorrow and feeling pretty big right now, I just can't imagine getting too much bigger but Lord knows I will!

The work in progress is referring to her room. We finally sold all the stuff in there on craigslist (that is the best site EVER!). The room is clean, painted and the curtains are up but other than that it still needs work. I think I finally found border to go around the middle of the room but we'll see once it actually gets here. Seeing it on the internet and in person are two very different things! The color around the bottom of the room is called "Mom's Lipstick" and it's a mulberry purple color and not very easy to match. I just pulled the color out of the bedding with out really thinking about what color the border was going to be. Most border so far has been too lilac purple or too pink and clashes with the color of the wall but I am hoping the stuff I found will be perfect.

Shawn will be putting together her crib and dresser this weekend so more pictures to come! For now the only piece of furniture in there is my awesome new rocking chair we got from Perry's (a friend out here) mom. It was such a generous gift and I couldn't be happier with it! Other than that I have just been folding and refolding all her little cloths and trying to keep the house clean...it just seems like it's a disgusting mess ALL the time! I'm not sure if that's the "nesting" or just that my house really is gross, I'm gonna go with the "nesting" :-)

Go SDSU ladies!

Well because I'm an SDSU alum I feel the need to support the SDSU ladies basketball team, regardless of the fact that I haven't followed them until the last few games. They played Oakland today and won 79-69, yah! Not sure who they will play in the NCAA tourney yet but it will be interesting! Those ladies know how to play...GO JACKS!!!!
