Total weight gain/loss: 6 pounds or so

Maternity clothes? nothing new

Best moment this week: Getting to see the most precious baby on the monitor at the 3d/4d ultrasounds. Getting to show everyone the pictures and videos afterward and having them to look at.

Movement: Very wiggly, and in the videos we got to see eyes open and close and lots of movement. Daddy loves the crazy kicking.

Food cravings: chick-fil-a, milkshakes and popsicles.

Gender: Definitely boy!

Labor Signs: Not yet, thankfully!

Belly Button in or out? I don't think it's going to come out, but it's starting to look pretty funky!

What I miss: nice weather!

What I am looking forward to: the next few weeks passing!

Weekly Wisdom: Those big feet are starting to hurt.

Milestones: Baby started to drop into place this week. I can almost breathe again and the heartburn has temporarily subsided.
