20 Weeks... Half Way There!!!

How far along? 20 weeks (Picture taken June 1, 2014)

Baby size: Mango, 10.58 oz, 10.08 in (crown to heel) previously they only measured crown of head to rump because the legs are usually too curled in or small to measure

Total weight gain/loss: When I went to the doctor this past Wednesday I weighed in 9 pounds above my pre-pregnancy weight. 

Maternity clothes? I am wearing my maternity shorts from Old Navy.  I use the belly band for normal pants and wear lots of my normal dresses and stretchable skirts.  Still don't like the way I look in my maternity shirts yet. 
Stretch marks? Nope.
Sleep: I am able to go to bed a little later but still before 10pm.  I usually have to turn from side to side a bit but fall right back to sleep.  As long as I use the bathroom right before I get in the bed I can usually make it until morning!
Best moment this week:  I enjoyed having Monday off for Memorial Day and spending time with my cousins Jake, Luke, and Drew at my parents pool.   It was also the last week of school for my first graders, so I enjoyed making a few more end of the year memories with them.  Friday was my last day, and Daniel and I had planned to go out for dinner to celebrate.  We got home around 4pm and the couch looked better than a night out.  We decided to take a nap and got up around 8pm for dinner at Tutti Frutti : )  My how date nights have changed lol!!  We spent most of the weekend with Daniel's family watching our niece Addison's dance recital and then celebrated his mama's retirement. 

Miss Anything? Date nights!! 
Movement: YES!!  She likes to kick when I lay flat on my back usually in the later afternoon.  Daniel has not been able to feel her yet, but she is definitely moving.  

Food cravings: I am actually beginning to be able to stomach ice cream just in time for summer!!  We made a Chick-fil-A ice cream run Saturday night for me and had Tutti Frutti Friday night.  This could be dangerous.  Still love fruit, cold pasta salads, cold desserts, cold apple juice... do you see a trend here : ) 

Anything making you queasy or sick: Still tomatoes and I am still weary of too much chocolate and ranch dressing.  Don't care for anything with onions either.  Daddy got hash for Memorial Day, which is one of my favorites, but I could not get past the smell of the onions to eat it. 

Have you started to show yet:  Yep!
Gender: It's a Girl!!

Symptoms: I have been having back pain if I sit in one spot for too long.  I think driving to the beach is not going to be as fun as it once was...

Belly Button in or out? In
Wedding rings on or off? On
Looking forward to: Having this week off before I begin summer school!  And Thursday we get to have the full anatomy exam which I am really looking forward to watching our baby girl for close to an hour!!!!
