Half Baked

I am half way through this pregnancy and I can't believe how much faster this one is going compared to B man. I feel this baby all the time now and sometimes s/he won't let me sleep. I get a little nervous wondering, if this one is more active then B man is, we are in for a wild 18 years. So far I haven't had a huge urge to find out this sex of this one. I am doing better than I thought I would. It does make planning for this a little more difficult especially since almost everything is gender specific. So its still fun to guess the sex of this baby using old wive's tales and other cultrual sayings. For instance, the chinese gender calendar predicts this is a girl (it did for B as well). Thought I'd run down the differences between these two pregnancies for fun.





Similarities: constipation, nausea, righted sided pain



Differences: No meat adversions, didn't puke as much, my complexion is worse this time, felt baby move a lot sooner, peeing more, more headaches this time, way more exhaustion this time, more gagging, and just overall very different.














B man is going to be a cow for halloween. I bought a size 2T and it appears to be a little small. Hope it will make it another 2 weeks. First though, is B's birthday party. I think he sort of gets what presents are so I am looking forward to him opening some up this year. If the saying is true about doubling your child's height at 2 yrs of age to find our their adult height, then B is on schedule to be 6 feet tall. Official reading in a week.














B is finally starting to put two words together. He will say "dada home" and "chi chi hot" (this is mac n' cheese not boobies). He is picking up new things so fast its amazing to watch him learn.
