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.

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

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!

Baby is as big as a? NAVEL ORANGE
Maternity clothes? Nope
Sleep: I feel wonderful! I've got more accomplished in the last week than in the last 10 combined! Now being able to sleep at night is a whole other story...
Best moment this week: Jesse and I making our first tiny (gender neutral) baby purchase! I can't wait to go on a shopping spree for our little one. Not until after May 14th though.
Most "pregnant" moment this week: Not a moment but more of a pregnancy theme of the week.... EMOTIONAL!!! I have cried 6 out of the 7 last days. So ridiculous. Mostly it's all centered around pregnancy conversations... not quite to the crying over commercial point yet.
Have you told family and friends: Everyone knows! Including work. It's so fun being about to tell everyone!
Miss Anything? Going 24 hours without crying
Movement: Nope
Food cravings: Candy and ice cream. Jesse did his first 9:30pm ice cream run a couple days ago.
Anything making you queasy or sick: Not at all!! yay!
Have you started to show yet: A little bump. I woke up one day and it was there. But it's still definitely a "too many cupcakes" bump.
Gender prediction: Craving sweets means girl right?!Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy when I'm not reaching for tissues
Looking forward to: Feeling the baby move. It's still a little early for that but I can't wait for that day to come.

Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy! But today I totally full out cried in the doctors office after talking about how I will have to have a c-section. A little random moment.

Maternity clothes? Not yet. But it was a little hard to button my jeans!

Gender prediction: nadaHappy or Moody most of the time: Happy! Well, happy-ish.
Looking forward to: Our next ultrasound!!!!! It was suppose to be moved today but got moved to FRIDAY!!!! My mom's reaction: "Did you pray for patience? NEVER EVER DO THAT!!! He will give you an opportunity to learn it!!!!" Haha. So true. The best part is that last night I did pray about the appointment and how I know everything is in God's hands and to help me be more patient, trusting, and to have more faith in His plan. So I guess this is my answered prayer ;)
