[20] Round 2

20 weeks ~

_______________________________________________________________________

Baby is the size of a mango.

Craving: Mexican

Maternity Clothes:  I have moved into maternity pants.  My regular shirts are working fine for now. :)

Sleep: I sleep. Sometimes.

Aversions: sometimes everything.  But I can manage to eat most anything as long as it sounds good at the time.

Gender prediction: We think girl.  According to heart rate and babybpm.com, it's a boy.  Only time will tell

Name(s): We are still working on a boy name!  But we won't be sharing. :)

Labor signs: A few Braxton Hicks, but they have lessened in the past couple of weeks.

Belly Button: in

Wedding Rings:  on

Feeling: Overall, I am feeling much better.  I have started my P17 shots, which have caused me to feel pretty bad the following couple days.  I am still pretty tired, but don't nap every day now.

Looking forward to: CHRISTMAS

Movement: Baby moves. A lot.  

Next appointment: January 4

Dancing

You can't watch this and not smile. :)

Zoo Lights

We went to Memphis last night for Zoo Lights!  Coop loved it, and we had a good time, too.  Cooper loved seeing Santa and Frosty.  And all the lights, of course.  He also got to ride the train at the zoo for the first time.  We are looking forward to going next year!

We watched Frosty on TV, and now Coop is obsessed with him!

Coop thought the Leaning Tower was a rocket.
