{23} Weeks

How far along: 23 Weeks

                                                       Weeks to go: 17 give or take a few!

Baby is the size of: A large mango!

Gender Prediction: Girl

Weight gain: ???
Symptoms: Just running out of breath! Itchy tummy, leg cramps

Mood: Amazing! I'm pretty sure that's just because Nick has been home to help out all week!

Maternity clothes: Pretty sure they won't fit soon..

Cravings: Not really, actually. 

Aversions: None.

Belly button in or out: You could probably just call it an alien.. 

Sleep: A little better this week!

Movement: We were sitting on the couch, and I grabbed Benny's hand and put it on my belly to feel the baby kicking. All of a sudden, he looked at me with this mortified expression. I looked down and sure enough - you could see and feel a body part sticking out. It was kind of cool, kind of creepy, and kind of made me squirm. We are thinking it was a leg... 

Labor Signs: None. 

Best moment this week: Literally the entire week. Preparing for Christmas, Christmas Eve church services, Christmas Day, a few days relaxing at home in our jammies! All of it. 

Worst moment this week: Probably Saturday night when Trice absolutely would not go to sleep and was up the entire night. It was rough. 

Miss anything: Just my t-shirts fitting and Trice fitting on my lap. 

Trice's Thoughts this Week: This week we are awfully concerned about whether or not baby has a blankie in my tummy - he needs one to be warm and if baby has breakfast in there. We hear often, "I want baby come out." He kisses my tummy every night and says, "Good night, baby!"
