My Summertime Twist and Week 15

My hair is getting longer, which means I tend to get frustrated with it and chop it because I have no clue how to style long hair cute at all.  I usually just straighten it and there, I'm done.  I always get jealous of the cute hairstyles I see on long hair and it's usually what motivates me to grow my hair long in the first place, but once I get there, I don't know what to do.  Well.  Thank goodness for this post on A Beautiful Mess: How to Style a Summertime Twist.  Here is my attempt...

I am taking my walks everyday.  Not letting hot temps or allergies stop me.  I have been drinking primarily water with the occasional glass of milk.  I refuse to weigh myself in between Dr. visits... so you will have to be in suspense about that until June 22.  I haven't been eating too poorly.  I did make chocolate chip cookies last night, but I only ate 1 1/2.

Cravings are primarily dairy.  Milk and sour cream.  I also crave fruit.  Mangoes and apples.  I also had a craving for fish... and I normally do not like fish.  I know that I am getting the Omega 3 from my prenatle vitamins, so I don't think it's that I am deficient on that.  I think I am craving the tartar sauce on the fish more than I am the fish itself.

So.  Here is a week 15 picture. Not much change, but still.  Gotta photo document.  I didn't do this with Lindsey or Brendan and I regretted it.

I think I have felt the baby move, but it's so light, that I don't want to say for sure. I felt Lindsey and Bren both at about 16 weeks. They say that women that have had previous pregnancies will tend to feel baby move a lot sooner. Who knows really? ha. Not me.

I'm feeling REALLY chubby.  I know my walks are doing me good, but this stage in pregnancy just sucks.  The belly is just starting to take shape and it's pushing everything out and up including fat and organs so my waist is just THICK.  I'm not complaining... just saying.

Well.  5 more weeks I will know what I am having.  BOY OR GIRL.  Make your guess.  What do you think I am having?


P.S. Happy Birthday to one of my awesome friends LIZ from Liz Lemon blog.

    Cute hair! I want to try it but I think my hair is still a tad bit too short...Ugh, I hated this stage of pregnancy where you just feel pudgy. The worst.

    I voted! But I'm sure you know my vote. =) Also, you know what sounds amazing?! Strawberries with sour cream & sugar. Make it a sweet sour cream & dip away! Yummo. I'm so having this later. =) Your hair looks amazing & I totally understand the VERY awkward growing out stages. Like, why can't my hair by Lydia's length or something like that already!?! Ha! It'll grow faster than you know with all these vitamins girl. Folic acid is a hairs best friend. =)

    very cute hairdo on you! I know what you mean about hair though. Mine is either down and straight or curly with gel.
    Every now and then I go for half-up. I'm just not a big hair experimenter I guess. ;)
    Thanks for the encouragement with the 30 day shred! I agree! It's awesome to see everyone is blog land trying to get fit!

    Love your hair! I think I'm going to try that style in the next few days. Having long hair in this heat is no bueno, so anything that looks cute and gets my hair up is good to me! :]

    Hehe your hair looks so cute :D

    I always just throw mine up in a bun and forget about it 'cause my hair is getting thinner and thinner and I just feel like cutting it off all the time. And I'm not very fashionable :P HAHA
