24 Weeks Prego :)


I'm copying this fun pregnancy question-neer from my friend who posted it on her blog. So thanks Jannica! haha I will have to update this post with a picture if my computer will cooperate...it has issues... which is why I haven't been updating lately. I have a bunch of pictures I want to post but my dang computer is retarded so one day when it's in a good mood I'll get that done but for now here is a quick update on baby and me! :) 

How many weeks? 24 WEEKS TODAY! :)
Total weight gain/loss: Gained 9lbs :) Not too shabby
Maternity clothes? yes! I love my target maternity shirts and mostly I just wear a belly band with my regular jeans undone or sweats when I don't got anywhere.
Stretch marks? Nope
Sleep: I wake up in the middle of the night to pee but other than that no sleeping problems other than I'd just like to sleep in haha
Best moment this week: Laying on the couch cuddling with Lee and he got to feel little boy kicking around like crazy!
Movement: LOTS of it! Especially at night
Food cravings: Chocolate!!! Especially symphony bars and mexican food mmmm!
Anything making you queasy or sick: nope not that I can think of
Have you started to show yet: Yes! I've been showing for a while now and I'm definitely unmistakably pregnant and loving it :)  
Gender prediction: We're having a boy
Belly Button in or out? In
Wedding rings on or off? On
Your top two name choices: Nooo idea....Lee likes Sidon or Drake and I can't decide but I kinda like Ryker or Rykan and I'm getting more and more used to Drake....NAME SUGGESTIONS ARE WELCOME!!!
Worst Thing about being pregnant: arms falling asleep since I can't sleep on my back or stomach.
Best Thing about being pregnant: Feeling the baby move and day dreaming about what he's going to look like and be like.
Are you more scared or excited: All of them at once but right now more excited since I'm still far enough away from labor.
Last time you cried over something ridiculous was: a while ago like a month or two.
You pee an estimated __ times a day?: Hundred times a day! Feels like I'm always peeing! ok probably more like 8+
Weirdest dream you've had since pregnant?: I can't remember but the other night I had a dream that I gave birth naturally and was like Oh that was easy! and then we named him Drake and it was the perfect name and he had tons of dark hair and blue eyes!!! and he was also like 6months old but supposedly a newborn lol 
Looking forward to: Finally deciding on a name and meeting or new addition!!! 

24 Weeks 0 Days Pregnant....



Your baby's growing steadily, having gained about 4 ounces since last week. That puts him at just over a pound. Since he's almost a foot long (picture an ear of corn), he cuts a pretty lean figure at this point, but his body is filling out proportionally and he'll soon start to plump up. His brain is also growing quickly now, and his taste buds are continuing to develop. His lungs are developing "branches" of the respiratory "tree" as well as cells that produce surfactant, a substance that will help his air sacs inflate once he hits the outside world. His skin is still thin and translucent, but that will start to change soon.
