Beckham - 44 Weeks

Likes: blowing bubbles, spitting, food, crawling, standing, furniture cruising, peekaboo, calling daddy on the phone, bouncing, crossing his little feetsies

Dislikes: being tired, getting in his crib

What's New in the Last Week: He has figured out clapping sort of...sometimes he does it and sometimes he does it sort of backwards! He has figured out how to yell for fun...especially when I turn on the vacuum! He is pretty close to standing alone...he has done it several times and his balance is improving! 

He had his first two injuries. He pulled the end table over on his head trying to stand up and had the worst goose egg ever. It swelled up instantly to a purple and blue ping pong ball. I felt so terrible for him! He did it on Monday and now it is all yellow ;( Then on Wednesday he crawled over to the fireplace gate and climbed up on it and got his index finger pinched in it and then fell over with the gate on top of him! It ended up not really being that bad but I instantly thought he was going to have the tip of his finger cut off like my little sister did when she was about his age. Luckily it wasn't pinched tight, just enough to hurt.There isn't even a bruise. So rough week for Beckham! This whole pulling up and standing business is dangerous!

poor fella with a big ole bruise!

19 Weeks

This weekend Clint and I were pretty busy. Friday night we went to a Pacer game with my dad and stepmom. They won 7th row tickets right behind one of the goals and they were great seats! The game was close until the Pacers blew it wide open in the 4th quarter and ended up winning by about 20. We have never really liked NBA games but we both had a lot of fun!

 Saturday I spent all day trying to fix my half-broken computer :( Yep, it was only working correctly for about a week! So I am in the process of saving important files but it is very slow and/or freezes often so it's taking a while. Then I will reboot :(

I also ordered several things! From the pictures we just had taken, I ordered a large print to hang over our bed, 3 medium prints to hang somewhere, one canvas to hang in our bedroom, Christmas cards, and invitations to our gender reveal party! One bad note - yesterday morning I realized that I forgot to put the date on the invite! FAIL! We'll see what I can do.

Sunday we headed to Menards to buy a new bathroom vanity, faucet, and floor for our extra bathroom! We took the old vanity out to put in the house that Clint is fixing up to rent; it was ugly and the floor is uglier! We are nearly finished! I grouted yesterday and now Clint just needs to install the faucet and put the toilet back in. I would really like it painted before Thursday but we'll see!

 

Yesterday was semi-eventful! I was chatting with Emily and Augusta and randomly sprained my ankle. I was just standing there and all of a sudden my ankle turned sideways and made the loudest cracks I have ever heard! Emily even heard it across the room. Our school nurse brought me an ice pack and I chilled in Emily's room for a bit and then drove home. Luckily I drove the truck so I didn't have to use the clutch (it was my left foot).  This morning it hurt something fierce, so I decided to head to the dr. just to make sure it wasn't broken. He didn't say it wasn't broken but he was pretty sure and he wouldn't do an x-ray since I'm pregnant. So he gave me a much better ankle brace than what I had. We'll see how it feels!

 

Today I hope is much better! I am 19 weeks...almost halfway!

Still haven't felt any baby movement but I hope I can soon! The Dr. said in about 2 weeks I should since the placenta was out front where you feel most movement. Fingers crossed :) Not much else to update! See ya!
