MY FIRST CLOTHING CASUALTY

You know your ass is growing when you go to sit down and this happens:

LOL :)  not so funny that these were one of my favorite pairs of comfy pants but nonetheless still so funny. I sent a pic to my mom as soon as it happened and her response was the best part: "good thing you weren't wearing butt floss!"  hahaha - I love that she calls it "butt floss"

So aside from my growing caboose I feel like I have a lot to share since I haven't posted in awhile.. For the past two weeks I've been able to feel our little Lucas moving.  It is such an amazing feeling.. in the very beginning it felt like he was brushing the inside of my belly with a feather - it actually tickled :)  and now I can feel more prominent moving - no hard kicks or anything yet but it's a little harder than the feather.. It's definitely not consistent yet either.. I will feel him all day one day and then the next day not at all.. I feel like as I progress through the pregnancy everything is becoming more and more "real"... at first I almost didn't believe he was in there but then I got to see him on the ultrasound and hear his heartbeat which definitely made it real.. and then my belly would shrink and grow shrink and grow and I would wonder if he was still there but now it's ALWAYS there so I know he's in there somewere :) and then add that I can now feel him moving and it becomes SUPER real..

So I've picked out an inspirational picture for how I'm going to decorate the nursery... beachy chic 

And God bless my sister in law and her husband!!!  We went to their house last night and this is what they sent us home with: a tub overflowing with baby clothes, a crib mattress, breast pump, infant bath tubs, bottle warmer, receiving blankets, diapers and a few toys... and this is just the beginning!  We are going back for round 2 sometime soon since this was all we could fit in our car. We are soooo incredibly thankful and feel so blessed to have all of these items passed down to us.  Little Lucas will know who to thank for the clothes on his back - and it won't be mommy! hahaha :)  Here is a pic of everything:
