25 weeks 1 day
Growing more and more every day. I went to the doctor for my check up and everything looks great. I'm measuring 26 cm. She measures my belly every time I go and it should match up with how far along I am. I have also gained 12 pounds to date. My next appointment is a 28 week appt in which I will have the pleasure of doing a glucose test. I cant 't wait.
Registry - Done!
This past Sunday, Jeremy and I embarked on our Journey to do the baby registry. Our first stop was Target. We got the little scan gun and headed over to the baby section. We walked up and down each aisle, starting with the pack n plays. Jeremy took different ones down from the shelf and started looking them over and comparing them. We narrowed it down to 2 and put them both on the registry and decided that I could go back and look at reviews and take one off after further investigation. Next stop - High Chairs (found one); stroller systems: Took them all off the shelf, rolled them around and looked at safety features. We finally found one that was up to Jeremy's standards. We moved around to the bassinets and told him we didn't need one because my mom was going to be giving us one that has been in the family for years. Next stop was the diapers and other baby aisles. Jeremy was so cute, he would pick stuff up that he thought was neat and said, "add this" or "add that". We had fun and spent quite a while there. I think we put the majority of stuff we wanted on the Target registry. One funny side note, when we got to the breast pumps, Jeremy was a little shocked at the price, but I had asked around to friends for recommendations about brands, etc. and the Madela was the clear winner. He asked me if I really needed one if I was going to breast feed, and I laughed and said, "Yes" and asked what happens when I go back to work. He said, "I don't know, can you not pump all day?" I laughed and told him that if we were going to continue to feed Logan breast milk, I would need a good pump, otherwise we could just spend money for formula, which would be way more expensive!" He got the point and then we added it to the registry and all the different accessories.
After Target, we went to Babies R Us. We added a few duplicate items, just because we weren't sure if they were cheaper there or at Target. Plus they had a little bit different selection of items. We looked to see if they had any different strollers or something we liked better, but we were happy with the one we picked from Target. We then headed to the baby bedding. I showed Jeremy the bedding selections I liked (that would go with the color there I was wanting to do) and he picked the one he liked better. I added the bedding set and all the accessories that went with it. We also added sheets and a pad for the changing table and an ottoman. We were really exhausted by the time we were done! One this is for sure, baby stuff is expensive! Jeremy didn't realize how expensive it was. We are excited to have that done.
Our last stop for the day was looking for paint samples. I picked out about 8 different shades of purple and green that I want to do and then narrowed it down to 4, and got paint samples. Jeremy is so sweet and letting this be my project and said I can do what ever I want! I have a vision in my head of how I want the nursery to look and I can't wait to make it happen!!

24 weeks
Slowly growing bigger and bigger. I'm a little behind on posting, this picture was taken on Sunday. I can't believe how fast time is flying by. I keep saying i have a lot to do, and I do. Baby room, registry, re-paint our bedroom. Oh the fun begins!!! Jeremy has a vacation coming up in a week, and I've already volunteered him for some fun tasks! He's excited (sais with a little sarcasm).

23 weeks 2 days
I'm slowly getting bigger and bigger. Pooh is more visible from the side. Before you know it, he might be huge.
The last few weeks, Logan has been more and more active. She moves around a lot. Sometimes I wonder if she is doing flips or gymnastics in there. Sunday night, she was so active, you could see my stomach moving just by looking. It was kind of scary and fun!! I am getting more and more excited to meet her. Granted, we don't have anything done yet, but I've also been busy studying for my boards. Jeremy is taking a vacation at the end of January and I'm hoping he will be able to start getting things ready. I want to get our room painted and new bedding put on. We need to clean out the scrapbooking room and make that the guest room/office and then we need to get Logans room ready. I am really getting excited, time is just flying by.

Logan's new toy
On Monday, I went home early from work due to a massive headache. Well around 12:30 my doorbell rang. I was sleeping and didn't bother to get up, as I figured the mail man was leaving something at my door. I finally got up a little later and found a new toy for Logan. It was an exersaucer. It is the coolest toy and I can use it for the fist few years of her life. I looked at the shipping tag and it said Logan Mason care of Natashia Mason. The return address was from amazon.com. I called them and told them I received this package and didn't know who it was from. They checked their records and said they couldn't tell me but they would email that person and let them know we got it and were wondering who it was from. We found out later it was from my father and mother in law!! They are the best a girl could ask for. They are so excited to be grandparents. I have a strange suspicion that Logan will be spoiled between her 4 grandmas, 2 grandpas, 9 aunts, and 6 uncles, oh and not to mention her parents (Jeremy and me)

It seems like my stomach gets bigger every day. This is the time that Logan will do a lot of growing. I'm supposed to gain about 1lb per week now. So far I've only gained about 7lbs. I get lots of compliments that you can't tell about my weight gain and I'm all belly.
