23 Weeks

Total weight gain/loss: Maybe 4 pounds the entire time!! It's been pretty hot out here, and I've been on my feet...LOTS..chasing Ms. Lena, so I've already dealt with a bit of swelling!

Maternity clothes? Yup, I'm in the department for a cute bathing suit for mine and Josh's vacation!

Stretch marks? No new ones! Yet!

Sleep: Becoming more difficult. I'm waking up more to pee, or just because I'm uncomfortable, and in the mornings my joints are soo sore and stiff, it takes forever for me to be able to get up and go!

Best moment this week: I enjoyed having Josh home for 3 days this past weekend. It was the first holiday where we had nothing major planned, so we had a lot of family fun and relaxation time!!!

Movement: Oh yes! He is soo strong!

Food cravings: No, not really!!

Gender: Seeing LOTS of blue! Mr. Parker Scott!!

Labor Signs: Still Braxton Hicks, and the occasional growing pain.

Belly Button in or out? In, but I think it will be out soon! My belly is rapidly growing...with Lena it stayed in the entire time!

Wedding rings on or off? Both on

What I miss: A "normal" body! My body doesn't seem to take too well to extra hormones streaming around in it. Last time, with Lena, I had a tumor pop up in my right boob, and now I am dealing with some skin cancer issues that my gyno is convinced was brought on by the hormonal changes!! It seems to be something...constantly!

What I am looking forward to: Our vacation, and seeing my parents!

Weekly Wisdom: Nap...ALOT!! :0)

Milestones: Nothing too big!! We are 23 weeks...YAY to the sixth month!!
