I'm 20 weeks along today with baby #2. We hadn't done anything at this point to prepare for Carter's arrival. I feel much more prepared for the new baby. We've been working on getting Carter's new room ready so we can move him into it and then start redoing the nursery. We put together Carter's new crib and bookcase this past weekend. Carter seems to love the new crib and wants to get in it all the time. Hopefully he'll want to sleep in it too, not just play in it.
I've been in search of some new maternity clothes and have been reminded why I hate them so much. It's really hard to get tops that aren't tents and fit over my belly. I get a huge belly, but I don't fill in everywhere else too much. I ordered a ton of maternity clothes from Old Navy and returned almost all of it. I kept running into either the top being big enough for my belly but huge everywhere else (almost coming down to my knees and falling off my shoulders) or fitting enough everywhere except my belly where it seemed like I was about to rip the seams.
Jeans are even more annoying. I finally found some at Kohl's yesterday that are more of a trouser jean that fit well enough. I have to stop wearing my regular jeans because I end up leaving them unbuttoned and unzipped when I'm at home and I'm going to end up leaving the house like that by mistake!
