Magically delicious puke

Today I'm working from home because my hubby and I have a wedding to attend this afternoon.  Normally work from home days are good for me (meaning I don't get sick) but today that wasn't the case.  I woke up, had my magically delicious breakfast of Lucky Charms (a luxury I've afforded myself during pregnancy) and promptly returned all of the charms into not 1, but 2 ziplock bags  (thank goodness hubby was around to give me bag #2... was necessary).  I then got back into bed for a little bit and hubby made me some french toast and I took a kytril.

I always end up getting sick when I have plans... Last week with the gala and this week with the wedding.  It's so freaking annoying... And then people say things to me like, "You shouldn't be getting sick anymore."  Really?  Well, I am... The frequency has gone down from every day or every other day to about 1x a week, but it's still going on and tomorrow I am 26 weeks!! 

Also, little Brady is more active then ever... He's very fitness-minded and he goes for a jog every morning around my uterus.  Today for the first time, daddy got to experience it and he was amazed at the frequency and strength of Brady's movements... They're pretty powerful and I'm sure they will only get more powerful as space gets tighter for him!

You're probably wondering... so what's going on on the apartment front?  Well, I saw a few apartments this week and I liked one... It's a beautiful, large, brand new apartment, but it's in the shadowy FiDi.  I just don't know if I want to live there... I mean, it's quiet... but that's because there's nothing there.  It's close to Battery Park and Tribeca (a less than 15 min walk) but I'm just not sure... The apartment is pretty awesome, though... AMAZING finishings... all modern and brand new... 2 br/ 2 ba, Washer/Dryer, etc... The other great thing about the building is that it has amenities... a huge, landmarked marble lobby (the building used to be a bank) that would be perfect for indoor strolls in the cold, a big gym, kids playroom, etc... So, hubby and I are going to check it out again tomorrow and we will also be seeing some other spots as well... I just can't decide what's more important to me... big, fancy apartment in the city in a neighborhood that's not the best OR smaller, less fancy apartment in a killer neighborhood that isn't in the city... It's a tough choice!

Balls

This is a big week for my boy... Not only will he be opening his eyes for the first time, he also gets his balls!!!

This is huge!!! His little eyeballs will now be able to see his cute little hands and feet... But even more exciting... apparently he will now officially have a pair!!

They grow up so fast...
