dear ev,

this week has been great! friends and strangers alike are constantly asking how i'm feeling and i've just been so grateful that i can honestly smile and say, "so great!" everyone has noticed that i'm a little larger in comparison to scarlett's pregnancy, but i'm just thankful that i'm not puking all the time anymore. i'm okay with flaunting some belly! we've purchased new scrubs for work (the first time i've had to upsize out of all three pregnancies) and they feel so much more comfortable! i've also added ted hose to our work uniform and my legs have felt better at the end of our shift. on all other days, we just wear leggings or dresses-- it's a comfortable lifestyle. we've been decreasing my time with my workout videos and increasing on walking with the girls; i think it might be a little easier on us to go low intensity for a longer period, as opposed to high intensity for a shorter period. who knows? our braxton kicks are also extremely annoying (sometimes up to 15 an hour!!!), we'll definitely be talking to dr. thackeray about it at our next appointment. for now, i'm happy to feel you move and kick, knowing you'd be safe regardless of where you grow.

love you so,

mom
