Baby Update...

How far along? 23 Weeks + 5 days

Total weight gain: 11 pounds (I've never said that in my life!)

  Maternity clothes? Not too many maternity pieces, yet!  I do have maternity tights I wish I could live in.

Stretch marks? Nothing yet!  ::crosses fingers::  Thankful for Christian's nightly belly rubs ;)

Sleep: Some nights are great, others not so great.

Best moment of the week: We built the crib and love it!

Miss anything? So many things. I've officially reached uncomfortable this week. 

Movement: Yes, I have football games going on in my belly.

Food cravings: All I want is bread!

 Anything making you queasy or sick: No
Gender prediction:  Boy 

Labor signs: Not there yet.

Symptoms: Nothing having to do with pregnancy, but I'm trying to get over laryngitis!

Belly button in or out?  It's definitely coming out.

Rings on or off? I'm still able to wear my rings, although it's tough to take them off.

Happy or moody most of the time? I sure do have my mood swings, but everyday gets more exciting.

Looking forward to: More nursery decorating and more baby clothes!

Hey everyone....big news!!  We found out we're having a baby boy!

Christian and I couldn't be happier!  Now it's time for the name game....any suggestions??

Sorry for the delay between posts...we've been really busy with moving, family visits, work, and adjusting to our new lives!  We'll try to be more diligent :)

I came across this quote earlier (I think it was in a movie trailer) and I literally can't get it out of my head...especially with my own growing family now...

"Our lives are not our own...we are bound to those who came before us and those yet to come."

I will do my best to honor both.

WE FIND OUT THE SEX OF THE BABY NEXT TUESDAY!!!

As you can imagine, we can't wait to know!  Stay tuned...
