23w5d: Grapefruit

(Me at almost 24 weeks, and Michelle at 26 weeks)

How far along? 23 weeks, 5 days
Maternity clothes: Still mixing it up!
Stretch marks: Same from before, just a few creeping up on my chest, but nothing yet on my belly. Fingers are still crossed!
Sleep: Not very good this week at all. :(
Best moment this week: Having Mark and Allison visit from Ohio; listening to Daniel read to the baby at night before bed; Shopping for more baby boy things and getting closer to finalizing the nursery plans.
Miss Anything: Feeling like myself some days.
Movement: He is a busy little thing!
Symptoms: Leg cramps at night; peeing every five seconds; boob leakage that is quite embarassing; (I'm making pregnancy sound wonderful aren't I?!! haha)
Food cravings: Anything in sight!
Anything making you queasy or sick: Cigarette smoke is literally my worst enemy. I can't stand the disgusting smell and I either want to hurl or punch the person blowing it in my face.
Have you started to show yet: Out and proud!
Gender: Sweet baby boy.
Labor Signs: Nada
Belly Button in or out?: Still an innie!!  Someone told me that I might not be an outtie until I'm ready to pop...like a turkey when it's done. haha
Wedding rigns on or off: Still on, thank goodness.
General Mood: A little bit irritable; very tired; but happy with Daniel when we can actually be together, relax and have great conversations.
Best advice this week: To stay out of the heat! It's just not worth the extra exhaustion and swelling.
Worst advice this week: Nothing really. 
Exercise: Walking, stretching (thank you charlie horses at 2 a.m.)
Looking forward to: Hopefully getting some DIY projects done for the baby; Finalizing a date for our Ohio shower so we can see everyone we love and show this big belly some loving by all of his aunties and uncles; Vacation with the Gilbert's in three weeks.
