Hey all! It's been awhile since I've logged in so I hope all is going well with everyone and their quits. Mine is still going just fine. I was even in a situation this past weekend at my baby shower that brought back lots of memories of smoking and hanging out outside talking to my aunt and uncle and having a few drinks. Several smokers were there and I even found myself walking outside briefly a couple of times and smelling the smoke... I couldn't even imagine trying to be outside in this heat and smoking a cigarette! I was so grateful that is behind me!

I had my 4D ultrasound yesterday and got to see my baby girl! It really was the wildest thing. She has the prettiest mouth and even got a few images and video of her smacking and sucking on her lips. She was not a fan of being woken up from her nap and kept trying to turn her head into me and hide her face. She makes the same kinds of faces I do when I am not happy! We got to see her hands and feet and even a little video of her kicking herself in the face.

She is right on track size wise and is even measuring a few days ahead.

My dad said she looks like me when I was a baby. I only have 8 weeks left.

Hopefully I won't go too far past my due date because I am beyond ready to see and hold her and just be home with her. These last several months have gone by very quickly and I know she'll be here before I know it but still... I am ready.

{Now as far as having the house ready... not quite. I am beginning to want to nest and get everything arranged for her but we don't have all the furniture yet and my nesting is about organizing and since I don't have many organizing options I find myself starting a project and then shoving it all into the closet so I don't have to look at it.}

{10.17.2016} I am 32 years old and started smoking at 13 years old. I've attempted to quit many times over the years but it wasn't until Oct 2017 that I felt I was really ready. I did it for my boyfriend, he does not smoke and hates that I do, and the possibility of a family someday. 1.25.2017~ I am 100 days into my quit and smoke free! I also recently learned I am pregnant! If not for this site my quit would not have been a reality. 5.11.2017~ I am over 200 days quit and almost halfway through my pregnancy. We found out that our baby is a little girl. I am beyond ecstatic to be living life with the man I love and a beautiful baby girl who will make us a family.
