How far along? 24 1/2 weeks! I am due March 6th! SO crazy.
Weight gain/loss: Gain. Do I HAVE to post how much I have
gained thus far? Haha.
Maternity clothes? Definitely. My pants are waaay too small
to button up! Gotta love the bella band. And comfy maternity shirts.
Stretch marks? Not yet.
Sleep? I flip back and forth on my special prego pillow a lot
through the night, but I do think I am sleeping a little bit
better lately. Thank goodness! When I first used the pillow,
my back would hurt so bad that I would wake up crying. It was
miserable. I think I am getting used to it though. Good news.
Best moment this week? SEEING our little baby boy kick inside
my tummy. I even took a video of it so Jeff could see the kicks
he was doing. I am a little afraid of how active he will probably
be, especially since Jeff was SUCH a crazy monkey boy. We are very
excited though.

Other favorite moment: Seeing him on the ultrasound. He was hiding
his cute little face with his arms. Precious boy.

Movement: Lots. The first movement I felt was at stake conference
for church, and the speaker was talking about missionary work! Wow,
it was so cool. I guess that's a good sign, right?! I really hope
that we can raise a good little missionary.
Food cravings: Smoothies- strawberry and banana (and blueberries
and blackberries) to be exact. I also craved cinnabon cinnamon rolls
hardcore a couple of weeks ago. I finally ended up caving and making
a copycat recipe. They were yummy!!!!
Gender: Boy!
Labor signs? No.
Belly button in or out? In. But slowly making it's way out I think. Ah!
What I miss? Sleeping on my back. And cold deli sandwiches! And riding
California Screamin and Tower of Terror and other crazy rides at
Disneyland and California Adventure. (We caved and bought Disneyland
passes). Such a great decision. We have already gone several times,
with and without friends.
What I am looking forward to? Seeing our little boy's face.
Weekly wisdom: Sleep. And be patient with Jeff.
Milestones: Canteloupe size! Almost, cauliflower size haha. 'Nipples
are sprouting, and face is fully formed.' Next week, he will know
which way is up and which way is down. Yay!
