Happy NewYear!! Kevin and I had a great time this holiday season, celebrating with family and enjoying our valuable and limited quiet time. I turned 26 on December 30, and aside from going out to breakfast, we spent the whole day lounging around. It was great... and somewhat surreal to think that it would be my last birthday without a child!
We have finally decided on a name, and waited until Christmas to tell our families. Our little man's name will be Declan Monahan! We haven't settled on a middle name, suggestions are welcome!
Here's a little history on the name Declan. Declan was an Irish Saint who lived right before St. Patrick began preaching in Ireland. The name now means "full of goodness." We choose Declan because we wanted a strong Irish name that was unique. I think we nailed it!
On to the stats :)
How far along? 23 Weeks
Total weight gain/loss? Last week I was 155; up 15 pounds. Eek!
Maternity clothes? In addition to my amazing leggings, we found a pair of Gap maternity jeans at a second hand store and I could LIVE in them.
Stretch marks? Still nothing!
Sleep? Same as the last update... I fall asleep really easily but have an awful time staying asleep. I wake up almost every night around 2 or 3!
Best moment last week? Kevin and I found the perfect condo for rent and found out this week that we are moving in February 15! We decided to start getting nursery ideas. That was a lot of fun!
Movement? Yup! Every day!! Declan is going nuts in there!
Food cravings? Nothing recently... I just always want to eat!
Labor signs? Wayyyy too early.
Belly button in/out? Still an innie, but I'm sure it'll pop out in a few weeks.
What I miss: Eating without heartburn
What I am looking forward to: Kevin feeling his son move for the first time <3
Milestones: No big milestones to report!
