week 23 | may 26, 2015 | littlest lite

How far along? 23 weeks
Baby is the size of:  a grapefruit
Total weight gain: gain of 0.6 { 130.2 to 130.8 } - total gain 20.8
Maternity clothes? i tried on shirts i wore this time of my pregnancy when i was pregnant with Liv and they don't really fit...soooo maybe have to invest in some used, goodwill maternity clothes. well see!
Stretch marks? nope
Sleep: sleep has been better. i found some egg carton mattress foam and put it under my sheets on my side of the bed and it has been such an amazing thing for my hips!!!
Best moment this week: being home for 6 days straight! the shareholders meeting was Wednesday and Thursday so we got to WFH, and then I was off thru Monday! We got to see baby girl on Wednesday which was wonderful! :)
Movement: yup, tons! and tons!
Food cravings:  Cheese fries and cheesy potatoes!!!!! bacon. chocolate. cold stuff. coffee. just love food! ---- all the same! plus taco bell and tipsy stout burger from tap house
Anything making you queasy or sick: nah
Labor Signs: nope, nothing this week to report! yay!
Symptoms:  hips have been better just some occasional heart burn...bad!
Belly Button in or out?  still holding on to it's 'in-ness'
Wedding rings on or off? tight some days!

Feelings:  getting excited to meet this little babe! but also getting weepy about counting down the days it's just Liv.
Looking forward to: closing on our refi so i can save some keesh! oh and seeing Liv as a flower girl this weekend for DiDi's wedding. She's gonna be so stinkin cute!


22 week dr appt + cervical check|
HR 147
Breech at the moment 
Little fluid on cervix which could explain the plug?
length of cervix 3.4 
Liv wanted to see her ears so the tech showed her (one was kinda hidden)
She had her hand under chin for most of the time
Her spine is awesome! I'm always in awe when i see it.
She's big and won't fit into the screen anymore, i was shocked how much she grew in two weeks.
The 20 week measurements came in and are officially good!
Everything is looking perfect and we couldn't be happier!!! :) We are so blessed.



hard to tell if they resemble each other... can't wait for the 3d us to see!
this just melts me into a puddle... big sissy! she wanted to practice. she's definitely showing alot of interest in caring for her baby and she brings her baby to me to care for her... it's the sweetest.

she loves to nuggle with sissy. she will just come rub my belly and tell me she misses and loves sissy. it is just the best feeling to know she can love something she can't even see, SO much with no knowledge if sissy is even real. she has to know... her love for her sister is unreal. and her care and concern for sissy's needs are always top of mind for her. she tells me when sissy is hungry or needs milk and always shows concern for me when sissy kicks me hard. this is just such a special thing for Liv and am starting to think this was the best decision we could've made for our girl. <3

that little beating "text book" heart in there...
