20 weeks: HALFWAY THERE!!



Close up: 


How far along? 20 weeks ...YAY! 20 more to go. 

Size of baby: Baby is the size of a cantaloupe! Weighing in at about 10 ounces and measuring at about 6.5 inches long. 

Total weight gain:  Find out next Wednesday (5/15/13).

Maternity clothes? Nope.


Stretch marks? No. 

Sleep: The past two nights I have slept through the entire night withOUT getting up one time to pee. Can I get an AMEN on that? 


Best moment this week:  Knowing that I am at the halfway mark and knowing that I only have 20 more weeks to go. Also, starting to ordering baby boy's nursery items is making me SO excited

Anything making you queasy or sick: Not really anymore. I can handle people eating chicken around me now and I don't mind the smell of it anymore- but WILL not eat it, that's for sure. Sometimes my school's teacher lounge will get the best of me. Depends on who is cooking what. Sometimes I eat outside. 

Gender: Sweet little boy. 

Belly Button in or out? in

Wedding rings on or off? on

Miss Anything? Being able to sleep on my stomach and still wanting bologna. 



Food cravings: McDonalds hash browns (especially when they are over cooked fried). Wow. It's hard to pass it on my way to work each morning. It's like I can smell them as I am approaching the turning lane. 

Labor Signs: No

Symptoms: Only got sick 3 times this week in the morning. Makin'  improvements, people. 

Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy. Oh so happy. I love waking up each morning and starring at my belly in the mirror. The first thing I do is  go to the mirror and lift my shirt up to see if my belly has grown any...seriously, I do it every morning. 

Looking forward to: The anatomy scan next Wednesday and hearing Baby Boy's heartbeat. 

ONLY 20 MORE WEEKS TO GO! These first 20 weeks went by so fast, don't ya think?

Here are a couple of things that I have ordered so far: His room will be navy with accents of mustard.

Baby blanket to hang over the crib:


Deer pillow to put in crib:



PS: Did anyone catch the Bon Jovi reference on the chalkboard this week???? Woahhhh we're halfway there....woaahhhh livin' on a prayer!!
