Bump Date: 12 Weeks!

 

How Far Along? 12 Weeks 2 Days

 

Size of Baby?  One of my books this week said a lemon, while the other said a plum...take your pick!
 

Maternity Clothes? Yes on pants, everything pre-maternity is just too tight. We went shopping last weekend and I got a few more maternity tops from Penny's, Sears and Kohls. I have a new pair of jeans arriving from Old Navy hopefully today. The creator of maternity jeans is my hero-they are the bomb!

 

Gender? We don’t know for sure and won’t for a few more weeks but I am still thinking boy...we have a boy name picked out (first and middle), and we finally have a girl's name too. 

 

Movement? None that I can feel yet.

Sleep? Last night was the first time that I can remember sleeping all night, and it was lovely. I  went to bed around 9 last night so I must have been TIRED! 

 

Food Cravings? Still pizza. I could literally eat it every single day. In addition to pizza, I have been a big fan of fruit and veggies recently. I have gotten a salad for lunch for the past 3 days! 

 

What I miss?  Can't really think of anything this week, just so happy to be here! 

 

Symptoms?  Still just sheer exhaustion. I am so tired all the time...I think I am a little easily set off too. Like some people are work get on my last nerve pretty quickly...maybe I just reach the end of my rope sooner?

Best Moment Last Week? We put the changing table together! 

 

Looking Forward to? Feeling movements, hearing the heartbeat again and finding out the gender!!! :)

 

Here are this week's bump pictures:

 

Louie was out on the porch with us while we were shooting pictures and he was just begging to have some photo action too. How could we resist this cute face?!

 

In other news, I had a dentist appointment yesterday for a cleaning and when I was scheduling my next one it occurred to me that in 6 months when I come back to the dentist, I will have a little baby boy or girl. It just felt so surreal!

Oh, and it's cold here today. I actually saw frost on the grass and rooftops as I was driving this morning. Also, I could see my breath! The cold weather is coming and I am thrilled! I just love fall and winter!

Have a great day everyone!
