23 Weeks

So lots of pictures to post since I've been so bad about making extra updates! Last weekend Darion and I went to the pumpkin patch to pick out pumpkins! It was super fun. We got a huge pumpkin so we would have lot of pumpkin seeds to toast, and a small one so we each had one. It was our first official trip to the pumpkin patch "with" baby!

Our big pumpkin!

Small pumpkin!

This is a picture from date night last week, out to eat at
Red Robin, I love Wednesdays!!

Me and Sissy last Saturday when
I went down to show her my new car!
We went to lunch and had tons of fun!

Update photo!! I feel major stretching every night in my sides
now! The baby is getting so huge! As I type, he's spinning and
rolling all around! He sure is active!

How far along are you?: 23 weeks, holy cow! Time is going so fast now!

How big is baby?: He is about 11 and a half inches, the size of a papaya still! He's a bit more than a pound now, what a big guy!

Weight gain/loss?:
Down 7 pounds. Without even trying, I seem to be steadily gaining my one pound per week as regiment would deem appropriate, so that's pretty neat! I'm glad my body knows what it's doing!!

Stretch marks?: None so far.

Maternity clothes?: Yes, though I don't have as much to wear during the cold. I probably need to figure out what to do about that. Perhaps today I'll take Darion to get new pants and me to get new shirts at Old Navy. We both need clothes!

Sleep?: Sleep has been alright. Albeit a little uncomfortable.

Best moment this week?: Well, Friday Darion and I got a NEW CAR!!!! That was soooo amazing, and it's such a blessing! I didn't even see it coming! I'll have to post an individual update for that one about the way it came about and some pictures!

Food cravings?: Hot chocolate from McDonald's. It's all I want. I've been having one or two a day sometimes... it's so bad! Haha!

Gender?: Little man!

Movement?: Yes! And a lot more during the day lately. I usually feel him at night and in the morning, but this past week or so, he spends just a ton of time awake all day!

Belly button?: Innie! For now!

Labor signs?: Gosh, thankfully none yet!!

What do I miss?: The luxury of time. I feel like the timer is ticking a little quicker these days, and I have a LOT to get done!

What I'm looking forward to this week?: Well, we weren't able to carve pumpkins last week because things got so busy, so I'm really looking forward to that! We're going today to Darion's sister's fall festival at her school, so that should be fun! And this is the week where Darion gets 6 days off of work without even having to take a single vacation day, so I am suuuuuper excited for that!
