HALF WAY MARK + 16 Months

i don't know how sixteen months has already gone by, it feels like just yesterday that olive bug was born.  we love this little girl and all the joy that she brings into our home.  she amazes me every single day.  i love watching her learn and grow.

+ olive is SO talkative. she is constantly just jibber jabbing.  she can say; daddy, mommy, doggie, hi, daisy, nayyy (for horsey), and has the puppy whimper down to a T!

+ at her 15 month check up she finally weighed 20 pounds! she's 31.75 inches long!! such a tall skinny girl!

+ we turned her crib into a big girl bed and she is doing great at night!

+ she loves playing outside, long boarding with daddy, going to the park, playing with her stuffed animal puppies, and has quite the imagination forming!

^^ 20.5 weeks pregnant ^^

how far along? 21 weeks & 5 days. YAY! Time is finally starting to pick up it feels like.

gender? another GIRL!!

belly button? it's like half innie half outtie.... at the end of the day when i feel like i'm going to explode, my belly button is pretty much an outtie! :) so funny!

rings? still on! 

stretch marks? i got a few on my lovely love handles from olive's pregnancy that started to fade away after i had her, but they have been showing up a lot more lately!

maternity clothes? when i'm not wearing sweats or dave's clothes, i most definitely wear a pair of maternity jeans.  they are life savors!

movement? this little girl is very active.  dave finally felt her kick for the first time last week! movement is definitely my favorite part about pregnancy!!

weight gain? this is a sensitive question for me since i've had such a hard time with it this time around, but yes- i've gained A LOT so far!

cravings? cafe rio. i decided to just get the pork & dressing recipe and make the salad myself so i didn't have to spend so much money every time i had a craving!
