21 Weeks

How far along? 21 weeks

Maternity clothes? The maternity pants are more of a necessity now! I tried wear my biggest jeans I had and there is no way I am buttoning those and feeling comfortable wearing them. My belly is very hard and doesn't have much give these days! I can't wear most of my shirts without wearing a longer tank top underneath. I also must do layers. My classroom is never the same temperature and I think my own body temperature is up and down all day. I'm actually pretty comfortable though! I love how I no longer have to suck anything in! 

Stretch marks? Nope!  (fingers crossed) My mom didn't really get any either so I'm hoping it's in the genes. 

Sleep? I've been sleeping pretty well. Have I mentioned that my in-laws got me an awesome curved body pillow. I think it's been my saving grace. 

Best moment this week: This week we found out that we were having a girl! We went out for dinner over the weekend with my in-laws and Jason's grandmas and shared the ultrasound photos. A great friend told me I looked beautiful! :) Jason gave me a back massage! It's been a pretty good week. 

Miss Anything? I miss my random late, late Friday nights with my girlfriends and the guys. I miss going out and getting a good buzz with Jason on date nights! I'm supposed to be honest here, right?!

Movement: Yep. The movements are getting a little stronger too! 

Food cravings: Top the Tator dip and Ruffle potato chips! The perfect combo. 

Anything making you queasy or sick: Nothing this last week! :) I get really anxious almost queasy when people start telling me their labor and delivery stories. Unless of course they tell me that it lasted 1 hour and didn't hurt at all, but I haven't heard that story yet... anyone?

Have you started to show yet? Yes, I don't mind the hands from the people I know and care about, but if a stranger ever comes up and touches my belly, I might just slap them. Or better yet, I might tell them that I'm not actually pregnant and see how they react. That would be great! 

Gender: A little girl! aka: Pebbles (for now)

Labor Signs: I don't think I would know what they were if they happened at this point! I don't think I've had any.

Belly Button in or out? Pretty far in still 

Wedding rings on or off? On

Happy or Moody most of the time? Happy!

Looking forward to: Seeing the baby's room start to transform. We took the carpet out to reveal a decent hardwood floor underneath. I pulled out all the staples and Jason pulled up the trim and took off the closet doors. We are going to paint the trim and doors white. The room will stay dark navy blue. I think Navy is a beautiful color! I'm hoping that we can make some billowy, lacy curtains and add pops of hot pink and other baby colors to make it look a little more girly. I love hunting for the perfect "extras" to make her room unique and girly.
