22 Weeks

I found this cute idea for a blog and plan to keep it up until Jon David arrives!
How far along?: 22 weeks
Total weight gain?: 6 lbs even though it looks like more (after our Outback Valentine's Day lunch)
Symtoms?: Heartburn and weird sinus problems
How big is baby?: 1 pound, the size of a papaya
Sex:? BOY
Maternity clothes?: For about 2 weeks now. I can still wear my jeans (buttoned) but who wants to be uncomfortable?
Strech marks?: None yet
Sleep?: I sleep very sound but get up 5-6 times either thirsty or to pee.
Energy?: MUCH better! I am starting to get out of breath easily.
Excercise?: I get good workouts on the days I work, but hopefully after we move to the new house (which we close on TODAY) we can start walking the dogs at night. It is the PERFECT subdivision to walk in!
Movement?: He moves in the morning and at night when I am super still.
Food cravings?: Sonic Route 44 Strawberry Limeaid (with extra Strawberries!)
What I'm looking forward to:? Registering
Preparations:? Started Blog! Plan to start reading a few books next week. I had a dream the baby was born and I didn't know how to do anything since I hadn't read my books.
Best Moment this week:? Jonathan got to feel the baby move. Also, I had the best Valentine's Day I can remember. We went to LifeGroup and someone brought heart-shaped biscuits on a morning I was starving. Then with our 2nd grade girls we made chocolate dipped marshmellows with sprinkles and had a lesson on intentionally being kind. You should have seen them the rest of the class saying the nicest things to one another! We had a great lunch at Outback. Then I had a LONG nap! We went to Hard Knox Pizza for dinner which was great, and then to a Drive By Trucker concert which was good, but the entertainment was WAY better! A drunk lady told me my baby would LOVE me for it.

Lastly, I wanted to give an update from my last post: I had to go back to the doctor the next day to see my doctor since I just saw the ultrasound tech the day before. I was the 3rd person there and waited 2 HOURS. I think he felt a little sorry for me, so he did another ultrasound himself for like 15 minutes and Jon David was moving around like crazy...so straight from the doctor's mouth IT'S A BOY! Isn't the Lord so sweet to give us unexpected blessings!
