23 Weeks.

23 weeks and Baby Mayes is now the size of a grapefruit. She can now hear loud sounds like the dogs barking - which is good since she'll hear a lot of that for years to come. She should also start responding and moving when she hears my voice or Bryan's.

This last week we got a lot done in the nursery (thanks to my mom's help). The crib is ready. Curtains are up. Some of the wall decor is up. I will post pictures soon.

I've also been sick, though. Being pregnant makes being sick that much worse. Sneezing and coughing hurt. Luckily, I had lots of time to rest since I was in Texas with my mom. I don't think I would have been able to babysit at all feeling the way I did. I really need to figure out how much longer I'll be able to babysit in general, because it's going to get much harder the bigger my bump becomes. Something Bryan and I will figure out I'm sure.
