Heidi Kukoly - Real Life, Real Talk

Well, I must admit I've gotten really bad at doing my blog!  I've forgotten the last two weeks...so I'm posting a day late but hey...I'm posting!  So, happy 25 week mark!  This past week was a really good week!  We worked around the house, got our new flooring in (YAY!), carved pumpkins and I had a good work week, which just topped everything off!  I worked in the baby's room and have a bunch of stuff boxed up now and ready for storage, things are coming along!  Happy Halloween!!!:)  It's our first year not going crazy with decorations but we're still going to dress up, scare kids & pass out candy:)  Should be a good time! •How far along?: 25 weeks! •Baby is the size of a: Large Eggplant, 2lbs •Total weight gain/loss: 14lbs. at 22+2 •The Bump: Everybody loves it...they're drawn to it:) •Symptoms: Thankfully this week my only symptom has been my bump and the movement inside it:)  My emotions have simmered down...Praise ...

What a week!, Whew!  Kinda glad it's over (see more below).  I don't really have much to say...I wrote a lot in my responses below so I'll just leave you with a picture...E.J. took this of me a few days ago when I got home from work:)  Cheers to almost 25 weeks...just a couple weeks before we're in the 3rd trimester!!  Let's go:) •How far along?: 24 weeks, 6 days! •Baby is the size of a: Eggplant, 1.7lbs •Total weight gain/loss: 14lbs. at 22+2 •The Bump: I can't tell you how much I love it and what it represents...I'm in love:) •Symptoms: Oh....can you say emotional roller coaster?  Emotionally unstable??  Goodness gracious...week 24 was a bit emotional for me.  I am not a crier and I cried, oh let's say, 3 or 4 times.  I am not allowing myself to watch sad movies, sad commercials, any of that junk, anymore!!  I can't handle it.  And please don't stress me out...I will tear up and after that it's ON!  Things have calm...

Whew, what a week!  It's gone by so quickly, probably because it's been a really busy one!  I had ride-a-longs all week for a sales blitz! It was a lot of fun, I enjoy my job so much and feel truly blessed that I work where I work!:)  We had a lot of baby movement this week which has been a lot of fun...I can actually feel him moving around right now while I'm typing:)  I got an app that allows me to hear the heartbeat so I've played with that a little, it's pretty neat!  Hubby and I are working around the house, which ALWAYS makes me feel good...I like getting things done!  Last weekend our yardsale went awesome! E.J. was a master salesman (I left for Bodyflow for 2 hours) and we only had 1, yes ONE, box of stuff to take to Goodwill, it was fantastic!!:) The weather is much cooler, I love it!  It's so much better...Fall is my favorite!  This time of year is so great, it's cool, we have football, the holidays are nearing and we get to spend time...

Happy Friday!  It's been a pretty good week and we've got a lot planned for the weekend so I figured I'd get my blog done:)  We've got a football game, yardsale, (bodyflow), purchasing new flooring, purchasing new shelving...and I think dinner for my dad's birthday (that was Tuesday)! Whew...I'm pooped just thinking about it:)  But looking forward to it for sure!  I like getting things done.  Okay, so obviously these are very very LARGE papaya's...but I posted the pic because I thought it was funny...OMG, what if baby Emil was already this big!?  I mean, I think he'll be a big baby because E.J. was and I'm confident this little one is going to be exactly was his name says...a JR!  I know he'll be just like E.J.:) Anyway, thought it was funny...baby Emil is the size of a papaya but a regular sized one....thankfully! lol:) •How far along?: 22 weeks, 4 days •Baby is the size of a: Papaya •Total weight gain/loss: Up 14lbs at 22+2 •The...
