24 weeks!

How far along? 24w6d
Baby is as big as a? EGGPLANT (9in, 1.7lbs)
Maternity clothes?
 Okay, Okay I did it.  I bought maternity pants.  And boy are they WAY more comfy than my jeans!!!!  But with them being so expensive I hope to only buy this one pair, wear my jeans for a little while longer, and wear dresses.  We'll see....
Best moment this week:
 I can't really describe it but I feel like this week I just fell deeper in love with this precious miracle.  I think it has to do with a combination of getting all moved into the place that we will be welcoming her to and with how much she is moving now.  I just really feel like I already know and love her so much and I can't wait to meet her!  I also had a dream about her last night.... she was blonde.  Wouldn't that be a surprise!
Most "pregnant" moment this week: Three days ago I had a random stranger ask me when I was due.  It was one of the men catering the airplane I was working on and, I'm not going to lie, it kinda really took me off guard.  But he was really nice and then gave me a bag of DELICIOUS carmel popcorn as a special treat "for my baby girl".  So, I ended up not minding too much.  But then the next day I was working the beverage cart down the aisle on a Guadalajara turn (very few passengers speak English on this flight) and a women just reached up and started rubbing my belly!  She looked on me and said "Baby?".  It was odd.  Sweet.  But odd. 
Sleep: I can't sleep without my pillow anymore!
Movement: Oh my active baby!!!  Seriously this kiddo is insane.  She is moving ALL the time and making my tummy move too!  She especially LOOOOVES when Ernie is on my lap/belly.  She kicks him like crazy!!!!
Food cravings:
  Give me sweets and I am one happy camper.
Anything making your queasy or sick? While I was running errands today I thought for sure I was going to get sick!  I've been really queasy this week- which is odd because I really haven't been this whole pregnancy.  Hopefully it passes soon
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy
Other Symptoms:  Still working with my Physical Therapist to get my hips/legs a little stronger.  And apparently when your pregnant your skin burns instantly in the sun!  I was left a lobster after sitting by the pool for maybe an hour in Sacramento.  Ouch!
Looking forward to: FINALLY PICKING A NAME!!!!!!!!!!  I think this poor baby girl has been called everything under the sun and we just can't get one that feels right (or at least feels right for more than two days! lol).  Seriously WHY is this so hard?!  We looooove Sophia but in the end- we just know too many of them so we decided not to pick it.



We want a name that is as equally classy and elegant.... Any suggestions?!?!  PLEASE COMMENT!  I'm semi-desperate here! 



Getting dressed to go do some painting on our new side....
looks like I'm going to have to be borrowing Jesse's t-shirts soon!

First thing in the morning and Ernie is cuddled up with my belly.  So sweet.

ha!

True love= bringing your wife pickles in bed!

A week late in posting this.  

Hubby making a silly face while working on the nursery.

The disappearing seat belt!
Current nursery status= disaster!
It's a tool box and storage center for everything from our remodel.
At least there's a few clothes hanging up in the closet right?!
