23 weeks!

22 weeks through 24 weeks baby will be the size of a Papaya, so no new fruit picture for another 2 weeks.



























Wow. Since I hadn't taken a picture in what, 3 weeks, I can definitely tell a difference. I think its official that strangers can now tell. That and comments I have gotten from cashiers and clueless coworkers.

~~~~~~~~~~~

How Far along: 23 weeks, 5 days!


Total weight gain: I'm still within the acceptable range.

Maternity clothes: Maternity shorts and capris, and regular skirts. Still in regular shirts - Maternity shirts are tents on me.

Sleep: Good. Although, I am starting to wake up around 2 to pee. Little girl likes to jump on the trampoline, err bladder, around that time.

Best Moment this week: Picking out fabric for the nursery.

Movement: Pretty predictable, and getting stronger.

Gender: Sweet baby girl.

Labor signs: No, thank you.

Belly button: I have always thought of my belly button as the Mariana Trench of belly buttons. Its it sooo deep, probably about an inch. So its crazy to see it so shallow. I never thought I would be one of those pregnant ladies whose belly button pops out, but I'm starting to rethink that.

Cravings: Bing cherries. Good thing they are in season now. In fact, I have some in the fridge downstairs and I may just have to go get them right now.

What I miss: Nothing at the moment.

What I'm looking forward to: Going to my cousin's wedding in California.

This past weekend I went down to Perry to go fabric shopping with my mom. Since I'm forgoing a crib set, I wanted to get pretty fabric that would serve as curtains and a crib skirt. Then I figured I would be able to either use plain white or get solid colored crib sheets that would match. Well, we found fabric, and I absolutely love it! I hope it will stay in there for a long while. Better yet, with the sample pieces I have, we are able to go ahead and pick out the paint color for the walls, so stay tuned for pictures of the nursery progress.
