baby story: Week 15"},"content":{"rendered":"<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">Week 15: Baby&#8217;s the size of an apple!<\/h3>\n<p>Things are slowly chugging along in the baby world over here.\u00a0 It&#8217;s an interesting time, though, because I feel like I&#8217;m in somewhat of a limbo period.\u00a0 It&#8217;s only been the past day or two that I&#8217;ve felt any sort of <em>real <\/em>bump developing and I can&#8217;t feel any movement of the wee one yet so I just feel like I&#8217;m waitingwaitingwaiting for something to happen.\u00a0 But I hear that once the bump really starts growing it will all start to happen so quickly.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve been making some strides on the nursery this week too which feels really great.\u00a0 I&#8217;ve got a project I&#8217;m working on that will go up on the wall and I can&#8217;t wait to share it here for you to see!\u00a0 Hopefully in the next couple of weeks.\u00a0 And Kevin and I made our first baby purchase this week as well&#8230;a book for Sirena&#8217;s library!\u00a0 We haven&#8217;t purchased any baby stuff yet but we felt we couldn&#8217;t pass up this one.\u00a0 We&#8217;ve made a couple of trips to Babies &#8216;R Us to check out the overwhelming aisles and aisles of baby crap and we&#8217;ve been looking on Craigslist for some furniture as well since we don&#8217;t want to go completely broke once the little lady makes her appearance.\u00a0 We&#8217;ve got lots of cleaning and organizing to do in the guest bedroom, though, before we really start turning it into a baby space, but I&#8217;m really looking forward to this project!<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">Belly shot<\/h3>\n<p>My sister is hanging out at my apartment tonight and it wasn&#8217;t until this evening that I really feel like I&#8217;ve got an actual baby bump (and not just a chubby Lisa bump) in progress.\u00a0 When I push down gently on my lower abdomen there is a firmness just under the surface that is most definitely not abdominal muscles, haha.\u00a0 Jessie felt it and she agrees that the tummy is making real progress!<\/p>\n<p>This week I made my first maternity clothes purchase with some Old Navy maternity jeans, seen in the photos below.\u00a0 Most of the time I&#8217;m fine with my DIY maternity jeans (my regular jeans with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.lilsugar.com\/Pregnant-Rubberband-Trick-1662980\">a little something<\/a> added to it) but when I sit down for long periods of time it really bothers me so I&#8217;m looking forward to more comfort with these jeans.\u00a0 And hopefully they&#8217;ll last throughout the pregnancy (fingers crossed!)<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/lisankevin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/12\/IMG_5021.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\"
