Baby Update!

Pregnancy selfie!

Some facts:

- Feeling good? Yup! Feeling great :)

- Wearing maternity clothes? Yes, some. With some workout pants and flowy tops that aren't.

- Weight gain? You betcha! Over achiever.

- Cravings? None. Hungry a lot though.

- Weird side effects? People rubbing my belly. Not okay - ever.

- Nursery done? Not even close! Stacked with boxes since the move.

- Feeling baby move? All the time! 

Update!

23 weeks pregnant this week! Crazy how time flies. Due in April. We've got a little tree up in the new house. Not a lot of decorations this year as we're still settling in; we love it though. I had a great birthday -29! Another great year to come :)

Ice Storm

Bit of an ice storm here - we have a few birch trees down here.

AACI

Jon received his AACI designation certificate at a banquet in front of his peers this week. It's a big accomplishment after years of hard work. Not many people hold this assessing designation :) He is now an Accredited Appraiser of the Canadian Institute and has a few more letters after his name!

I'll make it fit...

Cleo wanted to sleep on the stool, even though she was too long...
