23 weeks- a grapefruit!

Sorry this is late. I took the photo at the start of the week, but then I forgot to update on here. oops!

The baby is the size of a grapefruit this week! A few exciting things that happened:
1. My super sweet neighbors gifted bins and bins of cute gently used baby boy clothing. I seriously have weeks of clothes all gifted to me! I cannot stress enough how much I love our neighborhood.
2. I'm feeling bigger and bigger every day, and keeping active is proving to be quite the challenge. As my weight gains, I'm more susceptible to shin and joint injuries while running. So that's been rough. I'm still keeping at it, but my pace is excruciating slow and I can't go far without round ligament pain.
3. On Monday night, I lay in bed feeling baby boy moving and moving. I watched my stomach and I could see him!! I called Matt in the room and had him watch my belly, and after much patience- he saw it move too! How cool!
4. Lastly, a super neat thing happened  Tuesday at school. I could feel the baby hiccuping! I thought at first it was a repetitious kick, but it was so much more odd! After researching and reading other mommy posts, I determined that it was baby hiccups! How sweet :)

Just a few of the ADORABLE outfits I was gifted from the neighbors. I love them! 

This past weekend was also the League Championship for Cross Country.  The senior girls always give away awards to the team.  Here is the hilarious award they made me.  How thoughtful, ladies! :-P
