22 weeks!



Over halfway through this pregnancy- exciting! According to one of my baby books, Mr. Baby Brummer is 7 and a half inches from crown to rump and weighs approximately 12 ounces. However, I think he may be bigger than that, because at our ultrasound he was estimated to weigh 12 ounces (and that was two and a half weeks ago). I feel like he and I went through a growth spurt recently, but now I think it is slowing down again - thank goodness! I was getting a little frightened of the bathroom scale! :)
Today Aaron and I did some shopping at Coral Ridge - I thought it would be good to do some maternity shopping, maybe find a dress or something like that. I also wanted to look at some swimsuits because Aaron and I are going to Vegas for one of the weekends of Spring Break. Well, I think a man designed the maternity swimsuits because they were AWFUL!!!! I tried on two different suits - a black one and a brown one. The black one made me feel like Shamu, and I'm not even that huge yet! They were not a good look - a tent on top of teeny bottoms. Seriously, who makes little bikini bottoms for maternity swimsuits??? Lie to me - even if they are huge just label them a normal size! :) Needless to say, I did not purchase a swimsuit today. I wanted to try on a swimsuit at Target, but they only had the maternity swimsuit tops in. That's right - no swimsuit bottoms, just the tankini/tent tops! Why wouldn't they sell them together??? Well, I asked one of the salespeople, and he said that he thought they'd be getting them in soon. Seriously. I suppose I could try to buy regular swimsuit bottoms with the maternity top, but I'd like to think the maternity bottoms are designed a little differently!
Well, we did buy a really adorable little plaid jacket for Mr. Baby Brummer - it was on the sale rack at Target. I think it will be really cute for this fall! We also updated our Target registry - now that we know we're having a boy we picked out some bedding - fun stuff!
Anyway, hope you all have a great week!
