18 weeks!

How far along: 18weeks, 6days 
Baby is as big as a? SWEET POTATO
Maternity clothes? With us moving in 3 weeks I decided to go through all of my clothes to pack up the ones out of season and also pack up the ones that don't fit my belly anymore (or that just don't look flattering on my belly anymore).  What I was left with was a very small portion of clothes.  But thankfully I still have options!
Best moment this week: The arrival of my nursery prints and fabrics!  Oh, and we found an amazing changing table/dresser on craigslist that we're going to paint.  I can't wait for us to move and I can start putting the nursery together  (And to find out the gender to know more of what I will do)
Most "pregnant" moment this week: When I was going through my clothes and realizing just how much my body has changed already.  Including all the little things that no one else would probably notice. 
Miss Anything? Sleeping comfortably at night.  I've started to get bad heartburn every night right when I lay down to go to sleep :(
Movement: A little.  But still goes crazy at work during take off and landing.
Food cravings:  Nothing consistently.  But there are times when I eat something (pickles, orange juice, brownies) and it tastes better than it ever has in my whole life. 
Gender prediction: 
Oh I don't know!
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy
Looking forward to: Gender reveal!

I guess we will never be able to trust Ernie with Gizmo's toys.

17 weeks!


How far along? 17 Weeks, 6 Days
Baby is as big as a? ONION (5.5in, 5oz)
Maternity clothes? Bought my first maternity clothes this week. Haven't worn them yet though-- just got them while they were on sale :)

Sleep: Sleeping great
Best moment this week: First nursery purchase!!!! I'm in love with it. Check it out here!

Movement: Not feeling as much as I did last week. But I still feel some flutters on occasion
Food cravings: Still craving ice cream. And my appetite is getting bigger everyday!
Anything making you queasy or sick: I was working first class on the airplane the other day and I could smell someones red wine the entire time. It started to make me sick just because it was so constant and so strong.
Have you started to show yet: Still sporting a cupcake belly. I don't think I grew much this week... but maybe that's just my thinking!

Gender prediction: Still hoping for a girl. Jesse is still praying for twins!!! haha.
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy. But I did get upset about something at work and ended up crying uncontrollably for over an hour. It was really ridiculous and definitely preggo hormones!
Looking forward to: Finding out the gender still!!! Down to 3 1/2 weeks.

Not really hiding the bump at work too much anymore

16 weeks!


How far along? 16 Weeks, 4 Days
Baby is as big as a? TURNIP (5in, 5oz)
Maternity clothes? No but I'm getting more and more limited on my clothes I can wear

Sleep: Sleeping great
Best moment this week: Going to the doctor and hearing the heartbeat again.
Most "pregnant" moment this week:
Miss Anything? I tried on four different shirts yesterday before I found one that looks semi-flattering on me. That was a fun moment
Movement: YES! I have thought I might have felt the baby before but four days ago I was on the back jumpseat during a pretty rocky take off and I for sure felt the baby! It was so cute. The poor little one was probably startled by it! And I've felt him/her a lot since. AND at the doctors when we were listening to the heartbeat I started laughing about something and the baby moved so much the doctor even noticed! So cute.
Food cravings: Anything sweet.
Anything making you queasy or sick: I got really sick after breakfast yesterday. Apparently hash browns were not the best choice.
Have you started to show yet: sigh..
Gender prediction: I called the baby a he so much in the doctors office that she even noticed and said apparently I think it's a boy. But I'm still holding out hope for a girl!Happy or Moody most of the time: Mmm I was a little bit of a roller coaster this week.
Looking forward to: Finding out the gender!!! I have to wait 5 MORE WEEKS!

Maternity clothes? Not yet.
Sleep: Sleeping great
Best moment this week: Celebrating Jesse's 31st birthday. I got him a present from Gizmo-- a onsie and a bib with a picture of his Triumph motorcycle on it :)
Most "pregnant" moment this week: Waking up the morning of his birthday and finding my belly doubled in size!!! I'm guessing the baby knew it was a special day and wanted to make an appearance for it!

Movement: Not yet. Hopefully soon!
Food cravings: Ice cream

Anything making you queasy or sick: Nope
Have you started to show yet: I definitely have a baby bump now. No hiding it.
