Facts of the week

I'm sure you've all been wanting a more detailed analysis of my pregnancy, right? I'm not going to do this every week, but I may check in with it occasionally.

How far along?
23 weeks
Total weight gain/loss: I actually don't know, but the things I've been craving and the massive amounts of food I'm consuming lately... it's not going to be pretty.
Maternity clothes? a few pre-pregnancy things still fit, but not many. I actually bought a maternity bathing suit.
Stretch marks? nothing so far
Sleep: I wish I was getting some quality sleep, but the last few weeks have been rough
Best moment this week: sleeping in saturday morning
Movement: I think I may have felt him shifting a little a few times
Food cravings: everything. I'm in a chocolate phase right now, but trying to stick to dark chocolate and ideally covering fruit or something kinda healthy.
Gender: Boy, and we're down to like 40 names now (we started over)
Labor Signs: No, just pain.
Belly Button in or out? in, but shallower
What I miss: sleep, followed by caffeine.
What I am looking forward to: Babymoon! We have plans to go to Vegas the very last weekend of April.
Weekly Wisdom: See above. We just booked a trip to Vegas when I'm 7 months pregnant, I'm not one to rely on for wisdom!
Milestones: made good progress cleaning out the nursery! and picked out a carpet, so we're making progress

Blogging failures.

In hindsight, starting a blog at the absolute busiest time of year was not the best move. This cake sums up our efforts:



We are hoping life settles down and we step it up, but we'll try to check in when we can.

it's official.

I now have the soccer mom haircut to match my SUV. All that is left is tracking down some stone washed pleated jeans with an extremely high waist and unflattering ankle taper.
