24 Weeks

How far along? 24 large weeks (I'm sure I'll be laughing about this when I get to 40)

Total weight gain: I'm weighing in (as of last Monday ) at 142 so calculating after my loss I'm at 12 lbs gained or I'm at 7 from my actual pre pregnancy weight. Check out THIS awesome weight tracker to make sure you're staying on point. I decided to help myself make good choices I'm also using MyFitnessPal app to track what I eat (so much more embarrassing to write down 4 cupcakes than to eat them in secrecy!). Although I'm not making the best choices it's helping me keep on my goal of 25 lbs gained from original weight of 135.

Maternity clothes? I have the same everything. I know I'm always talking about H&M but have you gone and looked?! Check out the adorable winter coats they just posted up! <3







Stretch marks? Same old ones, I'm getting itchy so I'm checking them often.. I already look like a road map so it's hard to tell.

Sleep: Sleep is getting deeper and deeper and my dreams are so real it's hard to get up in the morning, and hard not to be mad at my husband for all the awful things he does in my dreams.

Best moment this week: Having the Seattle Seahawks be at 3-0 AND the Huskies at 3-0... the last time this happened was NEVER!!!!!!!!

Miss anything? I miss being able to see Brandon before dark or having him at dinner time or all throughout the day. With working a full time job (marketing director), doing realty on the weekends and evenings, and starting a new business venture I feel like he's never home. To make him more stretched thin he's coaching little league football AND going to be playing city league basketball, as much as I love his ambition it's hard to keep up with him and Ryder and all of these events and be pregnant. I'm starting to get a liiitle coo-coo being home alone with Ryder so much, thank goodness he's such a funny little guy it really makes it more fun. I miss my husband though.

Movement: 10 o'clock at night and 5 in the morning, this had better not be your schedule baby or we may have issues! HAHAHA

Food cravings: We had a football party this weekend and t was everything I could have dreamed for! GRASS FED beef burgers, 7 layer bean dip, chips, salsa, molasses cookies, orange sherbet  goat cheese spread, sweet potato fries, fresh garden veggies, and orange Sanpelligrino. If I never have another craving as long as I live I know I had a pregnant ladies dream come true!

Anything making you queasy or sick: I had a few moments, but snacking a lot is helping a lot... at least in that area. -____-

Gender: BOY!!!

Labor signs: Still no.

Symptoms: Ridiculously bigger boobs, hormonal acne is finally dying down, and some painful pelvic discomfort, and a little weepy but so far no massive outburst.

Belly button in or out? So flat and so strange looking.

Wedding rings on or off? Today it's off actually but because it's so loose it's rolling around on my finger and driving me crazy! ;P

Happy or moody most of the time: I have been super happy, excited to start transitioning Ryder into his bedroom.

Side note: Before Brandon graduated (I'm married to a PLU Alumni over here!) he was gone so much it was nice to have Ryder to snuggle with and no bed time fight to deal with but now that he's home more (or was) we transitioned Ryder to his own bed but in our room. It seemed like a good idea at the time, now I'm not sure a toddler bed, our furniture and a bassinet will fit in our room. Someones got to go! 

Looking forward to: Going to the fair! I really hope we go to the fair! Last year we went and had so much fun. If we get to go I'll do a post about my weekend come Monday maybe even Sunday if I'm feeling up for it.
