11w5d: Lime (yum!)

How far along? 11 weeks, 5 days (can we ever just take a picture at the beginning of a week?!)

Maternity clothes: Rubber bands are my friend!  Oh, and leggings. 

Stretch marks: Nothing yet.  TMI:  I have a roadmap of veins though all over my chest. Gross.

Sleep: Getting a little better now that I'm not sick all night.  The allergy game is not very fun..roll to one side and stuff it up, then roll to the other.

Best moment this week: Listending to Daniel read books to my belly.  By the way, Dr. Suess was a little off his rocker when he wrote some of that stuff!  And eating DELICIOUS food at a cookout with friends! 

Miss Anything: This week, surprisingly (probably thanks to the cookout) it's beer.  I even asked Daniel multiple times if I could just smell his. haha

Movement: Nothing.  Just a few sharp pains down there every now and then, letting me know I'm growing!

Symptoms:  Allergies; a HUGE pimple on my forehead that won't budge; swollen fingers after a long walk; Freezing cold hands, no matter if I was sweating everywhere else!

Food cravings: Meat, and still anything cold (except ice)

Anything making you queasy or sick: Getting a little better in this department.  Still can't stand the smell of smoke at all though.

Have you started to show yet:  People say I have a "pooch".  I'm trying to take it as a compliment!
Gender:  I should just start making predictions in this section until 20weeks.  I want so badly to take a gender prediction test, but Daniel thinks it would be wrong (and get our hopes up) and a waste of money. Boo!

Labor Signs:  Nothing yet. 

Belly Button in or out?:  Innie.

Wedding rigns on or off: On, except after a long walk because I get sausages for fingers in this heat!

General Mood:  Good overall.  Headaches are getting worse thanks to the allergies (PS, ignore the awful swollen eyes in this picture after the cookout outside all day!!!!)

Best advice this week:  To find the humor in everything once the baby is here and old enough to "talk back".  Fran and Kevin told us a very funny story of Logan always telling them "you're not the boss of me!!!"

Worst advice this week:  To wait until we're 20 weeks to tell anyone.  Um..sorry, no can do!  The belly doesn't lie, and my family/friends are way too close!

Exercise:  Walking....I wish napping counted. haha :)

Looking forward to:  Finding out the sex so we can feel more connected with baby G and telling our family/friends that don't know yet this week and next!
