Baby's Growth: This week Connor is the size of a Head of Lettuce! According to the bump.com, he should be between 13.6 and 14.8 inches long and weigh between 1.5 and 2.5 pounds. He is growing!
How I'm feeling: Overall still pretty good. Granted, I do get uncomfortable at times but nothing too bad just yet.
Cravings: Fruit and lots of it. Cherries, watermelon, you name it! And Texas sheet cake (which I haven't had in forever now that I think about it). YUM. And speaking of cravings, last week I got the nicest surprise! Kellie (one of the lovely teachers where I work) took time out of her day to bring me a snow cone. She literally brought a snow cone maker to work and made me a snow cone! How sweet is that? And it was awesome by the way. Thank you Kellie!
Anything making you queasy or sick: Nope! *An update to last week's post on this question - I passed my glucose test!
Sleep: Still sleeping pretty well!
Miss anything? Not feeling like a total goof when I have to bend over to pick up something I dropped. Seriously, who knew dropping things could be such a pain!
Clothes: All maternity.
Movement: Oh yes! Connor is definitely a mover...something tells me he is going to be high energy just like his daddy :)
Gender: BOY!
Belly button in or out: In!
Wedding rings on or off? I've officially retired my wedding ring and am wearing my nana's wedding ring instead.
Favorite moment this week: This past week was really great. Brooks and I got a lot done on the nursery - it's really starting to come along. Once it's finished, I'll do a blog post just on the nursery so y'all can see what it looks like. Another favorite moment I had last week was the super simple and relaxed date night Brooks and I had last Friday. We are really trying to prioritize those nights right now since we know they probably won't happen as often once our little guy arrives. A night of Thai food and relaxation was just what we needed :)
Most looking forward to: Getting our house in order before Connor arrives. I guess this is truly nesting at it's finest? I've been doing A LOT of laundry and have just been trying to get the endless amount of tasks that need to be done around the house accomplished. Each time I check something off the list I can breathe a little easier.
Side note: Brooks and I have decided to use cloth diapers. I'm sure there are many opinions on this but this is what we think is the best choice for us. And have y'all seen how cute they are? These are not the cloth diapers our grandmothers used. I've been really lucky to have a few girls share with me their tips and tricks for cloth diapering but I'm still getting used to everything so if you are reading this and you cloth diaper(ed) your little ones and have any words of wisdom please don't be afraid to share.
