26 weeks

this past friday, we celebrated 26 weeks weeks of pregnancy
i went to get a much needed, long over due hair cut
my stylist asked if she could straighten my hair.
i said yes, as i never straighten my hair (time, effort, energy, and i don't know how!)
it took 2 people with 2 blowdriers and 2 flatirons to make it look like this

pretty fun and completely different.
i think i'll hit up the dry bar on fillmore where my customer lily said she would straighen my hair whenever i'd like
i just need to carve out the time to do so:)


the photo on left, before haircut; photo on right, after haircut.
but more noteably; i have been back to the gym twice this week!
and its feels incredibly good...so good!

if i stand facing the mirror directly, the size/roundess is hard to notice/differentiate.
but if i turn, thats when its truly noticeable that Pip is getting bigger
the little guy, weighs almost 3 pounds and approximately 12-15 inches long!
so crazy!!
i can definitely feel him moving more as he gets bigger; as i was sitting in church the other day i noticed my shirt moving...which was him kicking/stretching/whatever he does in there.
its a trip!
but a good one.  he is healthy and active, alive and well; all good things.

to do: get a crib, dresser and provide him with a warm and welcoming room to live in.
still yet to be accomplished.  (DB needs to move his library/book cases elsewhere before Pip gets a bedroom)
mom---come visit and help me (we'll see if she reads this!)
