Actually NOT baby related for once...

First things first, HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOSH!!!!! We love you so very much and Magnus can't WAIT to meet you face to face. At least I'm sure that's what he'd say....

On the acting note, about 1.5 months ago I shot a short film for a fundraiser for a foster home agency here in WA. It's on YouTube and you can see it HERE!

I'm getting huge and Josh is building garage cabinets on this his birthday. It's a beautiful day here and we're lovin' life!!

24 Week Check-Up

Although I missed my regular OB, my stand in worked just fine for us and was happy about how everything looked for me and Magnus.

We received the quad-screen test results back and they were all negative! The ultrasound also came back looking great. Had a quick listen to Magnus' heartbeat and it was a strong 145 BPM. My blood pressure was up a tiny bit to 112/60 but I attribute that to the shock I suffered after seeing the digits on the scale. Yikes!!! This is approximately the late-11th grade/early-12th grade weight for Chubby Molly (for those of you who knew me back in the day). So while I understand it's allll gooood, it's still tough to see. So, to date, I've packed on a hearty 18 pounds. There. I said it. 18 POUNDS! And there's more to come...

People aren't afraid to ask me if I'm pregnant these days (you know it could be those mini-donuts!) so I get really excited when people notice and acknowledge it. I've had only a couple people (friends) ask if they could touch the ol' Buddha Belly and I proudly stick it out there for them to feel. I'm not sick of it yet, so get it while you can!

28 week check-up in about 4 weeks so expect an update then. Will probably have belly pics before then.

We love you all!!

24 Weeks!


Been about 4 weeks since I last posted and while there's not much to report (other than a growing belly and stronger kicks) I wanted to say hi!

I've been online for what seems like hours upon hours researching baby items and it is an overwhelming task! I think I'm finally getting things narrowed down and I know I've got a lot of great gals to go to for advice so I'm not worried. Still getting to the gym and I've taken up spinning a lot more than I used to. It's not too comfortable bouncing around in a jog, so as long as there is space between my belly and the handlebars, I'm goin'! Plus, I think Magnus is really diggin' the variety of music that gets played.

We have a 24 week doctor's appointment tomorrow and I'll post the latest stats. Hope this finds you all well and looking forward to the Spring weather!

Oh, and here's a commercial I did back in December.
