24 Weeks

Baby E is viable! Well, technically. I wouldn't be very happy if she decided to make her appearance right now. So let's hope she keeps cooking another 16 weeks. That seems like such a short time!

By the way, Hunter is LOVING taking these pictures for me! It is the highlight of his week! (Insert sarcasm font). He has no idea what he's in for. I told him it hasn't even started yet.

How far along? 24 weeks
Total weight gain/loss: Maternity clothes? And I've officially gained 4 pounds. I'm blaming it on my swollen ankles from working too much.
Stretch marks? No new ones!
Sleep: It’s been good! I've been working a lot so I've been tired but I haven’t had much trouble sleeping. I have been getting leg cramps that are awful!
Best moment this week: Getting to hear little E’s heartbeat Friday.
Miss Anything? Nope!
Movement: More and more everyday! Especially when I'm in the car with loud music playing. She loves it!
Food cravings: Umm Savannah Smiles Girl Scout cookies. I'm pretty sure that's where the four pounds came from.

Anything making you queasy or sick: Having some meat aversions. Mostly pork but not chopped BBQ (thank God, my Memphis fam would disown me). 
Have you started to show yet: Oh yeah.
Gender: Girl!
Labor Signs: No
Belly Button in or out? In.
Wedding rings on or off? On.
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy!
Looking forward to: The end of January (and hunting season) so we can start on the nursery! Officially picked out bedding and ordering it Friday! EEK!
