We are 2 weeks shy of our Notre Dame trip to head to the first football game of the season and boy am I excited. I haven't had any "vacation" days off since I started work in Feb. so I have been a little burnt out lately. I can use a little fun and excitement away from work!
Here is this week's recap:
Survey says...
Written Thursday, Aug.
16
How far along?: 18 weeks and 6 days
Total weight gain/loss: Lost .5 this week so now totaling 5lbs. I have a feeling it’s because I have slowed down on the chips. Nom, nom, nom…
Maternity clothes?: 50/50 at this point although I spent a hour this weekend rummaging through my closet to pick out ANY pre-preggers that would fit and I barely found 4 things that would work. I don’t want to buy any more maternity though until more Fall attire hits the shelves since my biggest belly months will be fall/winter.
Sleep: I am sleeping pretty good but feel like I should be hitting the bed even earlier now. I am not as tired throughout the day as I was in the 1st trimester but in the evenings I am drag-g-ing.

Best moment of the week: Feeling more of Ryan’s little movements J It feels like bubbles or someone is softly plucking me from the inside out. I can’t wait until they are stronger for Russell to feel.
Movement: See above. Although Tuesday night I felt A LOT of little
plucking activity going on like he was doing flips J
Food Cravings: No hardcore cravings that are consistent. They are all over the board. One day its Chipotle, the next is York Peppermint Patties… Nothing that is sticking with me.

Stretchmarks?: Not yet. (fingers will continue to remain crossed)
What I miss: I really miss being active and being able to work out but I am still on rest until further notice so if that means I have a safe baby then I will try to embrace it J
What I am looking forward to: Going back to the doc in 2 weeks for another appt to see Ryan and how my placenta (still grossed out by this word) is doing.
Weekly Wisdom: Ryan is the size of a sweet potato and he likes to pass his hours yawning, hiccupping, rolling, twisting, kicking, punching, sucking, and swallowing…so cute!
Milestones: The nursery is OFFICIALLY painted and looks perfect. Now all we have to do is add the white chair molding then the furniture and other fun can begin. I think we did finally choose the furniture we want and man that was a tough decision…now on to getting it ordered and put together.
Have a great weekend everyone!
XOXO, Sherri
