16 Weeks

October 3-9

Not too much to report on this week, just cruising along. Still feeling comfortable, have energy, and have actually been pretty productive lately. Not sure if it's baby related or deployment related, but I have been "nesting" like a crazy person. Just organized my pantry this weekend and was way too proud of myself. Sometimes I just go look in it to see how clean it is. Hope this rubs off on to the rest of the house. ;)
Survey says...

How far along?: 16 weeks

Total weight gain/loss: Up .5 lbs. Topping out around 142, which is actually what I started at with Grace. Sort of thrilled that if I gain a pound a week from here on out, I should still keep my total gain closer to 30...which is more than 15 pounds lighter than last time.

Maternity clothes?: Yes and no. Again, don't really need them yet, but loving the longer shirts and stretchy pants. Why fight comfort, ya know?

Sleep: Pretty good. Not even waking up to pee some nights. Having a hard time not sleeping on my stomach. I hate side sleeping.

Best moment of the week: Hearing our littles heartbeat last week.

Movement: I think I've felt flutters a couple of times the past few nights. Very light.

Food Cravings: Nothing crazy. (For once!)

Gender: Your guess is as good as mine, so take the blog poll and cast your vote. Maybe send some blue vibes my way too, if you feel so inclined. ;)

Belly Button: Innie.

Stretchmarks?: Nope.

What I miss: Clear(er) skin.

What I am looking forward to: Finding out gender on October 29th. Starting to work on the nursery and G's big girl room once we find out.

Weekly Wisdom: Seriously, start moisturizing. I don't know why I'm being so lazy about it this time around.

Milestones: First flutters.

Grace's space: Not much to report here. Grace points at my stomach and giggles if I ask her if my belly is big. We went to dinner over the weekend with some friends who have a newborn and she oohed and ahhed, but wasn't overly interested.
