18 Weeks



How far along? 18 weeks
Total weight gain: 7 lbs
Maternity clothes? I think it's time to hit the resale shops for some clothes.  Regular clothes are starting to get uncomfortable!
Stretch marks? No.
Sleep: Sometimes this is my favorite part of the day!
Best moment this week: Feeling more movement!!!!  
Miss Anything? As always....Jimmy Johns.
Food cravings: Mexican food, pizza, strawberries, salad and carrots (I know it's strange)
Anything making you queasy or sick:  Nothing!
Labor Signs: No
Symptoms: Hunger and round ligament pain when I stand too quickly.
Belly Button in or out? It's pretty funky looking!  It looks like the end of a balloon.
Wedding rings on or off? On
Happy or Moody most of the time: A little moody/emotional this week but still very happy.
Looking forward to:  Still decorating the nursery.  I bought the paint but Steve hasn't had time to do anything with it yet.  I've also been searching Craiglist daily for dark baby furniture.  I have all of these ideas.  I just can't wait until they all come together.


 
I thought I would share a few more pictures from this week:

Yes, this baby is already spoiled!  Grandma and Grandpa Porter had to get the baby an Easter Basket!






I also got a little sneak peek at work this week and we got these awesome pictures of our little angel's hand and foot.  These pictures made my entire year!  I just can't believe this little hand and foot (this pic is kind of blurry) are inside of me!  We cannot wait to meet him or her!

Best moment this week:  Feeling some MAJOR kicks!  They get stronger every week and I'm loving it (until he or she starts karate chopping me in the ribs). Miss Anything?  I'm missing Jimmy John's again:(.  I'm also missing my normal feet.   They swell and get tired very easily.  It's a little annoying.   Food cravings:  See picture above!  Nothing new!
