Weekly Survey - 22 Weeks!

 (Baby Boy E belly at 22 weeks! Pre- and Post- workout! Growing like crazy - they swore to me that there is only one in there!!! ha!)

How far along?: 22 weeks!! Moving right along!

This week, Baby E is the size of a: PAPAYA!! 
 
Maternity clothes?: Oh yes, for the MOST part (other than a couple of shirts), it is not even an option anymore! My WONDERFUL and AMAZING momma took me shopping this week for some new maternity clothes! Bless her heart! Now, I'm not wearing the exact same outfits everyday of the week! haha... Also, I have graduated to full panel pants, no more under the belly pants! The full panel are so much more comfy at this point too! :) Below are a few of the items that my mom bought for me yesterday from Kohl's!

(Cargo capris - becuase, hopefully, it will get warm again soon and I will need those! Black leggings - sooooooo comfy and I can wear them with anything (dress up or dress down!). No, I will NOT be wearing mine with heels!!! ha!)

(Cute tee and sweater for spring! I got another 3/4 shirt and some work dress pants, but couldn't find pics of them!)

(I also got this dress from Target! Hopefully it looks as cute on me as it does on this girl!! ha!)
 

Total weight gain/ loss: GROWING!! Hence the need for new maternity clothes!

Stretch marks?: Well, not on the belly yet! TMI alert: Starting to get small ones on the "girls!" Ugh!!!

Sleep: Still sleeping pretty well! Only a couple of complaints: hips are hurting a bit at night (when I lay on them), and my right arm is still falling asleep (yuck!).

Best moment this week: Still LOVING feeling our little man move around! Also, excited about getting some new maternity clothes! Yayyy!
Movement?: Yup!! I love how active he is at certain times of the day! Still super active when he hears Daddy get home from work! It makes my heart melt!

Food cravings: ANY AND EVERYTHING!

Anything making you queasy or sick?: Nope.

Have you started to show yet?: Oh good grief, yes! hahaha! I love it though!

Labor signs?: Nope, thank goodness!

Belly Button in or out?: In still.

Wedding rings on or off?: On!

Happy or Moody most of the time?: Happy, most of the time! However, we lost a great lady this week. Baby Boy E's great grandma Ernst (Mark's grandma) passed away on Monday night! Please say your prayers for our family. Such a difficult time - We loved her very much and she will be greatly missed! Thank you, in advance, for all of your thoughts and prayers!
Symptoms: Same as last week! Heartburn has been awful! Grrr...
What I miss: My exercise has been SERIOUSLY lacking lately! I really miss the warm weather! It's supposed to be nice on Monday, so hopefully I can get outside for a walk! It's so hard to get motivated to drag my prego booty to the gym!!

What I'm looking forward to: Registering (we seriously need to get on this!), getting our little peanuts room together, and our baby showers! Such exciting times ahead! :)
Gender: Boy!

Milestones: (Based on pregnancy app) As your baby starts gaining fat, you will definitely be able to feel your baby's movements more accurately. The reproductive organs for both girls and boys are complete this week and the baby will even begin to develop nipples. Your baby's hair color is pretty white at this point - but don't worry, it's only because pigment hasn't developed yet. Color will come into play a few weeks from now. Facial features are just about complete.

Weekly Wisdom: Our weekly wisdom is WE NEED TO GET REGISTERED!!! haha! I would also like to get to moving on the nursery! We have lots of ideas, just need to get started! Hopefully, we can get some stuff done this weekend! :)
 
Sweet Baby Boy, we are already looking forward to meeting you in July! We can't wait to start getting your room all ready! So much to look forward to! We love you so much... to the moon and back! *Hugs and Kisses* from Momma and Daddy!
 
(So in love with this sign for Baby E's room, made by Grandma Melia and Grandpa Mike (from their old fence slats - so much love and meaning!)! Cannot wait to get it hung in the nursery!)
