18 Weeks and... and.... What was I saying?

Gah!

18 weeks. I CANNOT believe how fast the time is FLYING by!
I'm enjoying this whole pregnancy thing so much I am not ready to say it....
My bun is almost half way cooked!

aaaaaand.... I totally don't know where I was going with that.

Anyways. PREGGY BRAIN has taken over. Officially. I can't keep right from left anymore.
I'll be typing a paper or report for a class... and I will completely start typing something that has absolutely no relevance to the topic the paper is supposed to be on. For example: today I was writing up a lab report for AnSci 425 which is super swine.... as I was proof reading through it tonight.... I noticed I completely switched from swine to my AnSci 411 information on Meatless Mondays in the K-12 school lunch program.... WTH.

Well, I just finished my 425 report and it was supposed to have been done an hour ago. Whatevs.

18 weeks. I can't believe it. I hate to admit it but I am totally starting to show. Just within the last couple of weeks I have noticed a drastic change in my midsection size. My t-shirts officially are tight on me... welp. I guess it's time to go... SHOPPING! Haha. My mom bought me some maternity clothes online and delivered them a couple of weeks ago. Needless to say, I'm not big enough yet to fill out maternity shirts, but I'm sure the day is fast approaching. On the bright side... I'm still squeezing into my regular jeans. Sure, the buttons no longer get used and I always need a belt, but, eh, I'll take it!

I never figured I'd be the happy pregnant type... but even with the few troubles that I have. I'm loving it. Sure, the ribs are killing me and the charlie horses are the devils spawn... but I'm surviving! and I'm loving every minute. The kicking has really picked up this past week. I am now feeling it a lot more often. I get kicked on average I'd say probably 15-20 times an hour. Hehe. It still makes me chuckle! As we speak, the little fart is settling down for bedtime... (at least I hope) and it's kicking and pawing its way into the nest. :-D

Today I had the career fair, and I was able to talk to multiple swine production companies that have facilities in SW Iowa. Hopefully I'll be hearing something back from some of them about a future career. I may be pregnant, but baby Punt is not stopping me from finding a job. I'm just going to keep chugging through it. CHOO CHOO.

Anyways: Here is the Photo of the Week!
