24-week update

It's a...baby! At this point that's the only thing we know for certain. Twice already we've tried to determine the sex, but both times little Mullins wasn't cooperating and had her/his knees bent hiding the gender parts. Both times doctors said they "think" it's a girl...but not 100% sure. If we have to re-paint our pink nursery I only hope we do it before the baby arrives...
I'm doing much better these days! I feel nearly like my normal-self, except for being hungry all the time and having a belly that does not allow most of my pants to buckle up. I switched  to wearing almost exclusively skirts and dresses as they don't put any pressure on my belly. I still don't have any cravings and my "leftover-phobia" is finally over, so I'm back to eating and cooking normal stuff.
As always, Jeremy and Bo are doing awesome! If I'm busy with showings in the evening they take care of supper; if I'm home at night we try to do some preparing/studying/talking/reading/etc. about babies. The more I read, however, the more I realize we have absolutely NO idea what to do with our little one - how to wash them, how to feed them, how to do their nails, how to...and...and...and...I love it when experienced parents tell me that what I actually need to know is not in any of the books, and we'll just have to figure it out as we go...I suppose it's a good thing that babies don't remember their first few years of life.
Below are the updates on my belly
