Before getting pregnant I weighted 127. Now that I'm 20 weeks pregnant I weigh 135.9. I haven't been good about working out and I really want to make sure I stay fit for the birth and recovery so I found a great workout program just right for me. Usually I like to walk for my workout but it's been so rainy and with colds, I just haven't seemed motivated to take Gwenevere out in the rain to go walking. Well, the other day I found a Leslie Sansone Walk at home workout DVD and I bought a pair of 3 lbs weights (which I've wanted since I return Jenni's wieghts. Thanks Jenni for letting me borrow your weights. I use the 3lb weights while I do the walking DVD and I love it.
So now that I'm motivated to work out more, I have set a goal to stay under 155lbs for this pregnancy. We'll see how I do but If I can stay under 150 that would be even better. With Gwenevere I walked into the Hospital ready for labor at 149lbs and I walked out about 148 lbs. This gives me a goal of gaining about 1lbs per week from here on out. Fingers crossed.
Other than weight gain and food intake which I could talk about for another 30 minutes I'll get to the really fun stuff. Baby Clothes.
So we found out that we are having a little girl and yesterday I bought her a blessing dress. My Friend Rachael knitted some cute booties for the baby and when I found the blessing dress it all came together.
I can see our baby girl in this dress with a beautiful purple flower in her hair and wrapped in a soft purple blanket being blessed by James. Awe. I'm so excited.
The sale was buy one get one free so I got this cute dress
It's hard to tell by this picture but the dress is a soft pink knit.
I'm so excited.
And this is my first Maternity shirt for this pregnancy.
And now that we know it's a girl, it's time for a list of baby names.
Yippee
A list of names will appear on the side bar and you can vote for you favorite.

It love posts about eating right and exercising, especially while pregnant so you can keep talking about it all you want. I will be 20 weeks on Sunday and I am about 9lbs gained too. I think I could eat better but food seems so much more delicious while I am pregnant. Yum. I am excited to see which name you end up choosing for your baby girl. I am with Gwenevere, I like Alice.
