24 weeks

How far along? 24 weeks, 6 days - look at me remembering to blog on time!! 

Total weight gain/measurements: 18 ish lbs. I feel like I did better with more protein and less sweets this week. I made an effort, at least LOL. 

Maternity clothes: Maternity shorts. Maternity workout pants! OMG! Buying workout maternity clothes has made my life amazing. It's sooo much more comfortable!! 

Sleep: I did finally order an okay to wake clock for the baby (well, I bought it off a BST) but I haven't gotten it yet, so I'm still getting the 2 am wake up with Evelyn. Last night was so creepy. I heard her crying. I heard her leave her room. I heard her come in my room...then I opened my eyes and she was right in front of my face staring at me, not making any noise. UGH. But I feel like that's a parenting thing...she was bound to do it eventually. 

Best moment this week: We celebrated Evelyn's birthday as a family yesterday. We went to the science and history museum and then finished the day with Sweet Sammies - basically ice cream and cookie sandwiches. YUM! Then tonight we ate some amazing sushi. Everyone should try Wabi Sabi Sushi in North Fort Worth! 

Miss anything? I miss my pelvis not being super out of wack. On Friday I went to the chiro because I couldn't walk. I pulled some ligament or muscle or something. While the chiropractor was having me stretch it out, I was almost in tears. Evelyn thought this was hysterical and laid down on the floor next to me and proceeded to yell "Oh ow ow!" Thanks, Kid. Anyway, that never happens when you're not pregnant, so...yeah. 

Movement: Still lots of movement! I kind of take for granted how much he moves, but I love it! He's constantly reassuring me he's there. 

Food cravings: Grapefruit, but really all fruit. Rice. 

Anything making you queasy or sick? If I eat too much or too quickly, I have to lay down afterward HAHA. 

Gender: Baby boy

Labor signs: No! 

Symptoms: Heartburn is more miss than hit this week, thank goodness. My whole body hurts. I have this big ol' belly. Still a little nausea and I require a nap every single day or I'm a cranky, tired mess by 7 pm.  

Belly button in or out? Flatter and flatter!  

Wedding rings on or off? Off.

Happy or moody most of the time: Moody. SO SO SO moody. 

Looking forward to: Meet the Teacher is on Wednesday for Evelyn!! A lot of my friends with kids going into preschool are really sad and weepy but I am so excited. I love back to school time! Also, this weekend is the big Just Between Friends sale in Fort Worth! I can't wait! I am on the lookout for boutique clothing for Evelyn and a swing for baby brother.
