It is AMAZING that today I am 24 weeks pregnant. What a great feeling! Baby Grayson is the length of an ear of corn and the size of a papaya. The most amazing feeling for both Chad and I are the movements that we both have been able to feel in my belly. Grayson is so active when I eat chocolate and also at night. This is the best time for Chad as he gets to feel Grayson. We both cannot wait until Grayson is here. I feel very blessed to have made it to Week 24 without too much trouble. The only pains that I have currently are my back and hips. I had no idea that they would hurt this bad! I have walked throughout my pregnancy so far and it does help, but I am going to try Yoga this week to see if the stretching helps my body. If you didn't see my last post I asked for help on our baby registry so if you want to leave me a comment on what you think I must have for Grayson please do. Happy 24 Weeks to Me!
Look at that belly!
