26 Weeks/6 Months with Baby #2

How far along? 6 MONTHS! I AM 6 MONTHS!?

Total weight gain: I'm weighing in 143 so calculating after my loss I'm aby13 lbs gained or I'm at 8 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 trying to continue to use MyFitnessPal app to track what I eat.

Maternity clothes? I was given a belly band because my dear friend Alana thinks I should finally give up the hair tie. I have to say, I'm in love. Thanks gorgeous!!

Stretch marks? No new ones this week.

Sleep: I've been having really vivid dreams, usually not very good ones so I've found myself waking up every couple nights; heart pounding, palms sweating, stomach in my throat, all the while my imagination is still running all over. I go to bed and a few hours later I'm up and at it.

Best moment this week: Ryder got a new samurai power ranger cell phone from Brandon and he's absolutely in love with it. All he wants to do is learn how to use it like they do on TV.

Miss anything? I wish when I was sitting down that breathing was easier but, I am loving these last few months with Ryder. He is such a special little guy I am in awe of him each and every day. He really is so amazing and smart and considerate, over the weekend since I can I like to take a mid day nap and even if he can't sleep he'll sit with me and I can feel him kiss my forehead occasionally. I am really soaking up all the sweetness this age has to offer. He is just something else. 

Movement: Baby is starting to move more regularly during the day and I'll tell you what, he likes to sleep in and is such a night owl. I can feel him flipping and flopping around in there around 11 o'clock! Silly little guy makes me and his brother giggle like crazy watching him in there.

Food cravings: I'd really like to make thumbprint cookies but I can't find shortbread mix any where! :/ a little annoying. Last night I finally settled on more snickerdoodles because my cookie jar was empty and making me sad and they turned out HORRIBLE! They melted/burned while baking and some were under done and all of them taste like butter batter and not like a snickerdoodle at all. OH and they are the size of a half dollar. Sorry for the rant but you know how pregnant girl problems go (FOOD).

Anything making you queasy or sick: Feeling fabulous! 

Gender: BOY!!!

Labor signs: Still no.

Symptoms: Hormonal acne is almost under complete control, and some serious pelvic discomfort but that seems to be subsiding a little.

Belly button in or out? This week the top's out! ;P

Wedding rings on or off? On.

Happy or moody most of the time: Ecstatic! We're in the double digits! 98 Days!!!!!!

Looking forward to: After next week (28 weeks pregnant) I'll officially hit my 3rd trimester! :D How exciting this pregnancy is FLYING by

For the life of me this morning I couldn't get a good side picture; blurry, not looking, awkward smile. It was not my day.
