Hostile Takeover + 14 Weeks!

First, I want to say how much some of y’all cracked me up after reading my silly confessions yesterday – but ESPECIALLY the story of me passing the car on the left. I’m SO glad I’m not the only one that has done that. Good times.

Moving on.

1. Had another awesome Sunday of hanging out with my friend Brooke this weekend – she even let me eat almost an entire plate of garlic cheese fries by myself and she didn’t even judge me. I say ALMOST because she did have some. 🙂 THIS is why we are friends, people. PLUS, she dyed the ends of her hair pink. Girl after my own heart.

2. + 3. + 4. The following three pictures are of my dogs and their hostile takeover of our bed in the morning(s) while I get ready for work. They’re not allowed on the bed at night, but they take full advantage in the morning. I mean, really? Look at them. If I’m this infatuated with adorable, stinky dogs I am SCREWED once this baby arrives. amiright? GAH. REALLY?! So cute.

5. 14 Week update!

 

still being molly - maternity style: boyfriend jeans, cobalt tank, black cardigan, glitter flatsHere’s my current pregnancy update:

How far along: 14 weeks!
How big is baby: A lemon – 3-3.5 inches.
Weight gain: Just about two pounds.
Sleeping: Getting better, still not great, but improving.
Food cravings: Other than Mexican food, I had the BIGGEST craving for a vanilla or funfetti cupcake yesterday.
Food aversions: Chocolate. I don’t want chocolate at all. Vanilla is fine, but even the smell of chocolate makes me a little queasy.
Symptoms: Doing better this week after a rough week last week. Still fighting the nausea, which is not fun. And I still want to sleep all the time. I know that this is supposed to be waning, but so far, no sign of it letting up.
Doctor’s appointment: My 14 week appointment is today (Friday!)
Movement: Still none.
Best moment of the week: So, I’ve read in a lot of places that baby can HEAR now. Obviously the sounds are muffled, but I still like to think that baby hears what’s going on. So yes, I started reading to baby AND my sweet friend Brooke gave me her belly buds from when she was pregnant, so now I’m playing MUSIC for baby! I even found a lullaby Pandora station so baby gets to listen to lullabies.
What I’m looking forward to: I can’t WAIT to feel this baby move. I know it’s going to be a while, but I really can’t wait.
What I did / Got for baby: Still nothing really yet – except that I’m reading to baby and playing baby music.
What I learned this week: That baby can hear now! SO COOL!
Prayer requests: I feel like a broken record, but prayer for energy. I just want /need energy. I just want to feel up to doing things. I still just don’t feel like doing anything but eating and sleeping. I want to be not lame anymore. 🙁

  2. I am loving the brooke and molly collabs lately! I have two little dogs who take over my bed too! They’re both chihuahuas but they take up as much space as a lab! They try to sleep with my husband and I at night, but usually get kicked out. First thing when my husband gets out of bed though, my oldest (my favorite) jumps in bed and steals my hubby’s spot. 😀

  6. Love the pictures of the dogs, but not as much as your cute little belly! I am excited to follow along in your pregnancy as I think I am finally realizing we are done. Being pregnant 3 times is all I can take, and we are happier than I ever thought we could be right now. Happy Friday

  7. Oh my, those doggies are cute, cute, cute! What a fun and happy household you will have sharing your bed and everything else with a baby and two of the sweetest dogs ever. I wonder why Mexican food is one of the most craved foods when pregnant? Hmmm….

    Sorry to hear you haven’t got your energy back yet. Hopefully soon! Sending a prayer for you.

  13. Love it. Love the pictures of your dog lying in your bed. Soon it will be your little one taking over your entire house. But it’s wonderful and fabulous. You look great and those garlic fries sound amazing.

  15. I hope your appointment goes well! Reading to your baby is a GREAT idea and such a healthy habit to start. I sang to Avery a lot and when he came out the same songs worked to calm him…it is amazing they can hear at such a young state of development. Praying for energy for you!!

  17. I know that thousands of mothers across the planet will tell you this, they told me this, I didn’t listen. Enjoy the need to rest. You have no idea, and no one can adequately explain to you, how little sleep/rest you are going to get once this sweet baby arrives. Put a spin on it – instead of praying for energy accept the gift of restfulness. 🙂 I know, you wanna hit me now 🙂
