Wee Wilson Tales

26 weeks! The baby is definitely growing. I can't believe how big I've gotten this month!! I can feel him moving and kicking all the time now. We still haven't picked a name. I don't know when we'll ever make a decision on that. My blood pressure has been ideal, and I've barely had any swelling in my feet. It is definitely the exercise. I didn't get to exercise until Thursday this week, and my feet were a little puffy yesterday morning until I got my workout in. I've worked up to a 5 mile sprint on the elliptical and 2 miles on the bike during my lunch break. I think it's made a huge difference. The only fluid retention I see is in my legs right now. But it is very hot outside, so I really expected that. I have to do my glucose test next week, and I'll definitely be interested in seeing what the scales say. I think I've now gained 7 lbs this pregnancy. I went into a panic yesterday when I realized how far along I was. I have my next app...

We had a nice weekend. Friday night I had the worst headache ever. I don't think I've ever had a headache that's made me cry until then. And John had a really bad ear infection and even missed work Friday. So we stuck around the house Friday night . . . which we usually do anyway. Saturday we both felt better, and we started cleaning out our garage. We are planning to close it in this summer, so this is step 1! I guess step 1B will be next weekend because we didn't exactly finish it, but we made a LOT of progress. Those of you that have been in our storage room by the pool . . . can you believe there is NOTHING in it? We cleaned it out 2 weekends ago, and it will be closed in to be our new exercise room. Saturday night we went with my sister, brother-in-law to celebrate their 5 year anniversary at Two Stick in Oxford. It was 10 of us there. We loved the sushi which I've only ever eaten once before, but we had a really interesting night when they brought all of our ...

We went to Pensacola Beach May 30 - June 3. It was Jax's first trip to the beach. He loved it!! I was wondering if he would like or hate the sand. But he really liked it. Our first day there, I don't think he moved from where I sat him for an hour. He just dug in the sand and played with his buckets. He did not like the waves the first day, so we couldn't get him in the water. But by the end of the trip, he was jumping waves with us like a little pro. We took a tent and a kiddie pool for the little ones, and everything was smooth sailing. We had a condo right on the beach so we could walk back and forth, and it was great. We had a balcony overlooking the ocean, and even saw dolphins from our balcony. I have more pictures but they are stuck on my camera (not a memory card), and I can't find the cord that goes to the computer. Oh well. Hopefully I will find it at some point. I really didn't do too great taking pictures this year . . . I guess my hands were full!!! Jo...
