16 Week Bumpdate

img_986816 Week Bumpdate

 

size of the baby: avacado (yummy) – about 4.61 inches

 

total weight gain: 6-7 pounds

 

gender: unknown. I really, really hope we find out at the end of this month, but we will see!

 

maternity clothes: I’m still in my regular jeans with a rubber band and my Preggo Leggings.  I really need to move to maternity jeans, but I have been putting it off this time… big time.

 

movement: I have felt a little twitching this week.

 

sleep: I haven’t slept the best this week. I still keep having bad dreams, mainly about this baby being born even earlier than Brooke. Its obviously a fear in the back of my mind.

 

missing: feeling normal and not nauseous. I would just like to have one normal day. This pregnancy is so much different.

 

craving: Queso. Mac N Cheese. French Fries.

 

symptoms: nausea. migraines.

 

kevin is: getting a little tired from chasing Brooke around constantly. He has been such a big help around the house, as always, and even more so this pregnancy. I feel like i’m constantly exhausted and he is such a great teammate.

 

looking forward to: Seeing Kevin’s parents this weekend!! & going to our cousins wedding!

 

best moments: Kevin and I were both off of work on Thursday so we got to have a much needed date day to ourselves. We took Brooke to school and had time for the two of us. It was simple and so refreshing to spend time together.

  • #JimmyDeanBrandPartner @jimmydean Mornings are so busy, I need quick and easy breakfast ideas and @jimmydean always comes through! 

I used their Premium Applewood Smoked Bacon and Premium Pork Regular Sausage Roll to make these Breakfast sliders. They are so delicious and easy to make them for the week and reheat each day.

I like pairing them with Jimmy Dean® Heat ‘N Serve Original Pork Breakfast Sausage Links. They are seasoned to perfection and give me a little extra protein (9g per serving!!).

Another great quick option is the Jimmy Dean® Egg and Cheese Maple Griddle Cake Breakfast Sandwich. It’s ready in minutes in the microwave and it smells amazing, plus it has 13g of protein per serving!

You can grab all these Jimmy Dean®  Brand favorites at @walmart!
