Back to school I go @ 16 weeks.

Total weight gain:  9 lbs.
Circumference of stomach:   38 inches.  
Maternity clothes:  I finally caved and bought maternity pants.  I can still wear my old pants with the belly band but let me tell you something, NOTHING compares to maternity pants.  Old Navy was having a good sale and everything was less than $30.  Can't beat that!
Sleep:  Body pillow helps a lot.  Still waking up to use the little girls room nightly.
Best moment this week:  We have a doctor appointment Tuesday that I am really excited for because we are getting that much closer to knowing what we are having!  Also our headboard is DONE!  Woohoo!  On to my next project =)
Miss anything:  My memory.  I can hardly remember anything it seems like.  I have to make constant notes for myself...I am convinced that preggo brain is quite real!
Movement:  I have noticed that recently, below my belly button, it will get a little tight and I feel a slight roll/wave.  Only feel it when I am resting.  Hmm... 
Food cravings:  Spicy, flaming hot, sweat inducing, lip numbing FOOD. 
Anything making you queasy or sick:  I think I might try the tomato again soon...why am I so afraid?!
Gender prediction:  Not this appointment but the next we will know!  I CAN'T WAIT!
Baby purchases:  I bought my diaper bag this week!  
Symptoms:  Tired around 7 p.m.  Hungry!  Still have the nasal congestion.  Also have some other issues that we won't get into...don't want to gross any readers out.  However, if you are a mom you can probably guess what I am talking about.  Anything for baby =D
Belly button in or out:  No new change.  Still a weird hole.  
Wedding rings on or off:  On 
Happy or moody most of the time:  Happy unless I have gone too long without eating.  Can we say Grumpasaurus?!
Looking forward to:  Doctor on Tuesday.  I used to hate going to the doctor and now I love it.  Finding out about baby and hearing the sweet sound of the heartbeat never gets old.  Plus I always go with a million questions to ask my doctor.  He is ridiculously patient with me.

  1. It's so much fun reading about your pregnancy...takes me back! I agree with you on maternity pants. I fought them for so long and as soon as I put a pair on I thought, "where have these pants been all my life!!!" So comfortable! As for the pregnancy brain - don't plan on it returning. No one tells you it never comes back....so I'm telling you!
