Can you see your toes? Nope, they are gone.
Sleep: I have been sleeping really well! (Mostly because I am really sleep deprived due to working 2 jobs) As soon as my head hits the pillow, I am out. I have been having horrible dreams though.
Best moment this week: Lying in bed last night and Matt and I watched the baby move inside my stomach. You could see him either push his hand, foot, or head out and it sticks out of my stomach!
Miss Anything? Running. Round ligament pain is preventing me from going on any kind of run now :(
Movement: I'm starting to get a little worried that there is too much movement! Sometimes, its like hours straight of him moving and he won't stop!
Still running? One painful half mile at a time.... but today I had to stop during my run because the pain was so bad. The pain continued through most of the evening (feels like a pulled muscle all through my lower abdomen. Ouch! Miss Anything? Running. Round ligament pain is preventing me from going on any kind of run now :(

Food cravings: Spaghetti and chef boyardee
Anything making you queasy or sick: Gagged on spinach again last week
Have you started to show yet: I'm excited that complete strangers are coming up and asking me when I'm due and women in line at the bathroom are offering me their spot in line, lol.
Gender prediction: IT'S A BOY!!!!!!
Labor Signs: No
Belly Button in or out? In (but getting tiny!)
Wedding rings on or off? On
Happy or Moody most of the time: I would love to say I am happy....but I am so overwhelmed with teaching, parents, coaching, my XU class, this basement renovation, people causing drama, my impending graduation test on December 1st, my observation hours paperwork, the fact that the baby's room is not even close to being finished and I don't have a free moment to take care of it. I just overwhelmed, exhausted and STRESSED.
Weekly Wisdom: Fr. Dave said to me after mass on Wednesday, "Take care of yourself."
So even if everyone wants to call me selfish, lazy, emotional- I'm saying no to the things I don't want to do (and sadly some of the things I do want to do); I'm concentrating on what needs to get done, and I'm putting my health first. Besides, it's not really all about me- whatever's good for me is good for the baby! Looking forward to: Cross country being over so then I will gain another 20 hours onto my week to work on things, study for comps, finish all my final projects, catch up on grading, get ahead on lesson plans.... and take naps.
Matt put the shelves and hangers up for baby clothes!
It's beginning to look a lot like a BABY!
And the cutest booties in the entire world, from Osh Kosh B'gosh!




Sam and I could totally hook you up with some spaghetti and Chef Boyardee...we currently have 9 cans of it! haha
