Announcing...


How far along: 23 weeks 
Total weight gain: +7 according to the home scale.  Finally adding that approximate pound a week.  
Maternity clothes: Most of my dresses still fit and are comfortable.  The rest of my clothes, not so much.  I've bought quite a bit of maternity clothes over the last week and it's amazing how much more comfortable clothes are that fit!  
Stretch marks: None
Sleep: I'm still sleeping well, but continue to do strange things in my sleep that affect the sweet hubby's sleep.   
Symptoms:  itchy stomach - using vitamin E to help, stuffy nose - thus the snoring, my appetite is finally back and actually better on somedays than pre-pregnancy, lots of dizzy spells, foot pain/soreness after teaching all day.  
Best moment this week: Being able to feel our sweet girl moving all day everyday 
Miss anything: Sushi - I get cravings for it now and then.
Movement: She is moving all the time and has decided that kicking/punching my bladder is her new favorite past time, which results in me peeing ALL THE TIME!!!!!
Food Cravings: Cheese, bean and cheese burritos, ginger ale, and chips and salsa. 
Anything make you sick or queasy: ground beef really is pretty much the only thing I still avoid completely.  Other things don't always sound good, but that's more an in the moment kind of thing!
Gender: GIRL!  Her name is... drumroll please... Ainsleigh Ryen. 
Belly Button in or out: in
Wedding rings on or off: on
Mood: Generally happy.  Feeling really good almost all the time, which is AMAZING!!!
Looking forward to: Painting our master bedroom this coming long weekend!  Redoing other rooms in the house is on our pre-baby bucket list and we are making it happen!!!
