24 weeks

                   How far along? 24 weeks                                                      

Baby Hart is the size of: An ear of corn.

Total weight gain/loss: 12 pounds gained.

Maternity clothes? Yes.

Stretch marks? Not yet but quite itchy again... hello, Aveeno.

Sleep: Well, we're back at our super noisy apartment.  And our fan we normally sleep with died.  And we transitioned Silas to a toddler bed, which kept me up the whole first night cause I was worried about him falling on his face in the night. So I'm tired... very tired;)

Best moment this week: Finding the "perfect" house we want to buy and getting it under contract!!!!!

Miss anything?  Raw cookie dough.  Laying on my stomach.  Vats of caffeine.  Sleep.  Not feeling huge.   

Movement:  All. the. time.  This kid is a mover and shaker, y'all.

Food cravings: Chocolate.

Symptoms:  The awesome sciatica has gotten MUCH worse this week.  I walk like a 90 year old lady a lot of the time, and actually I've even seen some 90 year old ladies walk better than I do.

Showing? Yes, and I'm pretty sure the huger I get the skinnier everyone else gets.  Maybe that's just part of being pregnant in the skin-baring summer.  Lovely. 

Gender:   It's a boy!!!:)

Belly button in or out? I think it's out.  I think it's officially out.
Wedding rings on or off? On.  But with this heat, it's leaving quite the mark when I take it off ;)

Adjustments? Adjusting back to real life after our trip to Iowa;)  Also adjusting to Silas having a toddler bed.  It's gone well over-all, though waking up to his cute lil face saying "hi!!" at 5:25am isn't quite as cute.

Emotions: Excited!!  So pumped about our hopeful new house we'll be in the end of July!!

Learned this week:  That running through this pregnancy and this hot summer with Silas in the jogging stroller is going. to. kill. me.

So thankful for:  Having a house under contract to buy and hopefully being out of this apartment in several weeks!!!

Looking forward to: Our hospital tour this Thursday night!  Can't wait to see it and imagine being back there to have our lil guy in a few months!!!
