22 weeks, 5 days

well it's been literally FOREVER lol

Everything has happened and tbh I haven't much felt like writing and trying to keep up with everything. But here is a very brief update.

We are having a BOOOOY! Little Jack (name technically undecided but we've been going with Jack for now) will be joining our family and I'm so so so so so so happy and excited. I just love boys so much. 

We moved to San Antonio! We have a giant house with lots of room for us and two babies and some to spare as well! Milo and Jack will each have their own room on the top floor with us, and then we have a guest room on the ground level. It's soooo nice having space after being cramped in our tiny house for so long. Milo has so much room to run around and we'll have more than enough room for whatever baby gear we end up getting and all of their toys and whatever. 

The most stressful part of the move has been finding a new doctor and getting everything situated with them. Luckily we found a DOPE doctor who's about 20 minutes away. She's seriously incredible and I'm so excited for labor and delivery with her. It was a bit of a nightmare getting everything situated and all my records transferred over but WE DID IT and everything has been great. 

I'm almost 23 weeks now, which means just about 17 weeks to go. Hopefully a little less. :) But we're looking at just about 4 months until we have a baby. I'm honestly just so so excited. I wish it were sooner. I know it will be hard and be a big transition for all of us but I just can't wait to have another sweet baby in our home.

Milo seems to be slowly understanding everything that's going on. He knows there's a baby brother in my tummy, and he always says "bless baby Jack" in his prayers at night, which melts my hearrrrrt. We confused him a little bit because we were calling the baby Wolf for about a week, trying to decide if we liked Wolf better than Jack, but now we're back to Jack. So sometimes he prays for "baby Jack and baby Wolf"... but he'll figure it out eventually. 

We're still not 100% sure this baby is Jack and not Wolf. We love both names sooooo much. I think we might just need to see the baby to know for sure. But for now Jack feels right and comfy and I'm going with it.

As far as ME, I am feeling good. My belly has definitely popped in the last week or two. I feel super pregnant now and can't stand to wear any clothes that aren't maternity. I mean, I really just prefer to wear no clothes at all, but ALAS. I'm sleeping okay, but I still just feel very tired all the time. And I can't function at night without a BIG OL bowl of ice cream. Or really just some sort of chocolate in general. But ice cream is my preference. :) The biggest annoyance is this freakin restless leg syndrome. It gets so bad at night and drives me crazy. I've been doing yoga and stretching every night before bed and that usually helps but it seriously just drives me crazyyyy. I remember having it sometimes with Milo but never super bad, or enough for it to seriously bother me. 

Overall everything is good and lovely. I'm both relishing the time with just our little family and growing SUPER impatient for the little one to get here. But he will. Soon. And it's going to be such a great day.
