25 Week Update

I don't have much to say because I have been on bed rest for the entire week so my life has consisted or work, television, reading, and sleep.  Thankfully work has been busy so the days go by quickly.  Can't wait for my appointment next week to see if I can start showing my face again.  By Friday I was starting to go stir crazy so Jack and I went to the movies.  It was great to get out of the house and the theatre was pretty empty so I stretched out across several chairs and had my feet propped up.  On Sunday, Jack and I went to my parent's house for a cookout and although it was great to see all of the family, I was not feeling good at all by the time we got home and Labor Day has consisted of a lot of naps!  Thanks for all of your love and support everyone :)  We know that this baby is so blessed to have so many people who already care about him so much!

How far along? 25 weeks, 3 days
Baby is as big as a: Papaya!  He is about 13-14 inches long and weighs around 2 pounds.  We had an ultrasound last week and the estimated him to be about 1 lb, 11-14oz.  By now he has to be over 2 pounds!
Maternity clothes? All Maternity clothes.  I have about 5 dresses that will still work, but they are not going to fit for much longer.  I am a little worried about my options for fall.  Guess it's time for some online shopping!
Stretch marks?  nope

Sleep: Awful, but I am used to it at this point.  I think it is just baby's way of preparing me for what it is to come once he is here.
Best moment this week: Seeing Baby G!  
Miss Anything? still missing lunch meat.
Movement: Pretty consistent.  I always panic when he goes an hour or two without moving, but I need to remind myself that he has to sleep too! 

Food cravings:  I went from orange juice making me sick to craving it, so that is strange.  I also have been craving triscuits and grapes.

Anything making you queasy or sick: I am still having waves of sickness on and off, but nothing terrible.
Gender : Boy!!
Belly Button in or out? Out!
Wedding rings on or off? On, for now.
Happy or Moody : Happy and Anxious! I know I shouldn't wish this time away but I am SO ready for December.
Looking forward to: Holding my baby boy in about 15 weeks.  With that said, a message to my son: "STAY PUT for a while!"  :)
