and cry and cry.
For such a teeny little one you sure are rocking my emotions, and I love you more because of it.

This week was the most relaxing one of 2013 :) we cruised from LB to Catalina to Ensenada and back again. My sisters, Ryan and I decided to take my parents on a cruise for their 32nd anniversary and Ryan and I decided to go along with them. We napped, we ate and we laughed. It was a really great time and I didn't even get as sick as I usually do on cruises, win win.
Another really fun and exciting thing [well for us anyway] is that my tummy popped out!! I am so excited [and nervous and uncomfortable] it grew overnight. Maybe the baby loves cruises, as soon as we were on the boat I HAD TO HAVE A HOT DOG and the next morning only one of my dresses fit and none of my pants.
Our baby is growing and so am I, I finally think that people can see the baby bump and I am looking forward to going and buying some pants that fit and figuring out what my maternity style will be like, probably really similar to my pre pregnancy style since I never really had one - but it will still be fun to play around with it.

I am not LOVING my 17 week picture haha on a cruise ship its a little tough to find a big onion but you can easily find fried onion rings so these will have to do. At 17 weeks Baby Z is about 5 inches long and weighs almost 6 ounces, I sometimes still cant wrap my head around the fact that I am creating a little person but once we know the gender I think it will be much easier to think about what it will be like come August.
We are starting to share our baby names with our family, we are very happy that everyone seems to love them. I change my mind of what I think the babies gender will be so every day I refer to them by one name or the other and they both sound like a little lady and a little man that I know will make us super proud and we will love beyond comprehension.

Once we arrived home from the cruise we headed to Buy Buy Baby to register for a few more things that we didn't register for at Target. I am so glad that there are completion discounts because man that stuff adds up. It was so fun to pick out things we think the baby will like and need and grow with. The nursery seems like it will be a combination of dinosaurs, Winnie and cute random themes. I don't have the best follow through when it comes to themes because too many things make me excited. I think Baby Z and I will have that in common. Hope you have all been doing well and thank you so much for reading and playing along with this fun part of our lives.
Hey Baby Z,
I am starting to feel you. I THINK I felt you give me a little kick the other day but I am not 100% sure yet but I know for a fact I can feel your little body sitting on my insides while I sleep. On the cruise you loved to be right up on my ribs and when I would switch sides I could feel you slide on over. I loved it, yes I had to do this about 10 times but that means I was able to feel you getting comfortable inside of your tummy home and it made it worth it. Plus I was able to nap nap nap it up so really I couldn't complain even if I wanted to.
Your dad wrote you a blog last week and I think I cried for a good portion of the afternoon just thinking about it, he loves us so much and I hope that when you are born you instantly know that. I can already see him teaching you things, cheering you on and spoiling you and it makes me all warm inside. I am so excited for you to feel this love in person.
Bye bye for now my little onion.
love, your mommy,
