So, I have done an awful job of doing weekly updates or even taking weekly pictures. Poor Olivia is going to have "middle child syndrome"...well, hopefully she's the middle child ;) I promise I'm just as excited this time around, but I'm also busier (with chasing around a toddler and all that jazz!) I am making it a New Year's Resolution to begin keeping up with things better from here to the end!
Oh, and It's a GIRL! (in case I haven't mentioned it yet) YAY!!
I'll do a weekly "update" soon (those are my intentions anyway), but for now here are some comparisons between my two pregnancies.
Same:
*Both times I've had to shave my legs less. Score!
*My face is less oily both times.
*Weird and vivid dreams were my first signs of pregnancy both times. I'm still having very vivid dreams that wake me up.
Different:
*With Sophia I had horrible all day sickness. I only "got sick" a handful of times, but I had to keep crackers & Ginger Ale and a toothbrush & toothpaste with me at all times until I was around 15 weeks. With Olivia I felt "off" for several weeks but only "got sick" once.
*I had "better hair" with Sophia. No difference with Olivia
*With Sophia I had really bad acne along my chin line for the 1st tri. None at all this time around.
*I felt Olivia at 15 weeks. I didn't really feel Sophia well until around 20+ weeks. I had an anterior placenta with S that cushioned her movement so that's partly why. I have a posterior placenta this time & I could/can feel things much better this time around.
*I got really strong & pretty fingernails with Sophia...no difference this time around.
*My gag reflex is softer this time around. I gag nearly every time I have to take my meds (which is everyday) and it sucks.
There were definitely more differences so everyone thought it was a boy. I knew she was a girl ;)

17 Months
Uhm, I have an almost 1.5 year old?! Say what?! I cannot believe how fast this time has flown by!! I haven't been keeping up with this blog very well...and I really need to get a step on my weekly pregnancy updates. I'm already mistreating baby #2! I'll get that soon, I promise!
Sophia, at 17 months you:
*weigh approximately 21ish pounds
*wear 12 months on bottoms, 12 or 18 months on top & your pjs are 18 months
*are STILL in a size 3 diaper
*wear a size 4 shoe
*sleep from 7:30 pm to 7:00 am. Daddy and I take turns putting you to bed; which consists of getting hugs, kisses, laying you down with "mammy", you sticking your feet up in the air until we tell you "put your feet down silly girl!", covering you up, and you going to sleep all by yourself. Thank you!! We are so thankful you are such a good sleeper!
*have had a vocabulary explosion! I wouldn't have the time to type out all the words you say, but some of the cutest are:
"____, are you?" when looking for someone, "elmo go?" when wanting to watch Elmo, "gobble gob" when seeing a turkey for Thanksgiving decorations, "HO ho" when seeing a Santa, "noooo" while flicking a finger around (this is already not so cute ;),
*love to eat green beans, fish sticks, mandarin oranges, nilla wafers...and that's about all your diet consists of =) We need to work on your picky-ness!
*are trying to put your "gocks" and "sooos" on all by yourself, but not very successfully
*like to "pound it" (aka give knuckles), even the dogs and cats get to "pound it" several times a day
*say "baby" while pointing to my belly....sometimes you point to my chest instead. lol You try to say "Olivia" but it sounds more like "lilibaya" or something like that
*love Minnie, Elmo, America's Funniest Home Videos, and just about any commercial that comes on
*pat people on the back when giving hugs...sweetest thing ever!
*make everyone's day much brighter when they are around you. You are such a joy and I'm so blessed to be your mommy!
