19 weeks!! one week and 4 days till we know the gender!

How's momma feeling: I'm still feeling great! So nice not to be wiped by the time we get home. 
Size of baby: Baby should be a little over 7 oz and about 6 inches long. (apparently about the size of an 

heirloom tomato)

Cravings: Bread...mainly rolls of any kind!! (not a new thing for me as I have always loved bread:), but I definitely craved it in particular this week)
Aversions: Still "plain" water. Oh, and the smell of fish was not settling well with me either (I do like fish though).
Sleep: It's getting warmer here, and although I'm still sleeping fine, I'm wondering when the heat is really going to affect sleep (and it might not). Good thing we have fans! I think I started to use pillows a bit more this week...so comfy and fluffy...kind of makes one feel like a princess:).
Exercise: I have been loving the stair stepper at the gym this week...I get to watch my husband play basketball from this spot, AND I get to watch the Food Network on the little tv screen attached to the equipment:). I could be on that thing for hours watching those shows...my favorites so far - "Chopped" and "Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives"...ha!!
Clothes: Still wearing lots of non-maternity things (I love dresses/skirts for this reason), but I did notice that the dress I wore yesterday was a little shorter in the front than it was in the back...oh well...I think that kind of style is actually "in" right now anyway:).
Looking forward to: Being at home.
Something fun: One of my co-workers and her husband are having us over tonight for dinner and to talk about baby stuff. She has an almost 5 month old, so they just wanted to have us over to ask questions and for them to share their experience with us...so sweet, right?

Also, we had a great time last weekend in Syracuse, NY looking at baby stuff and eating at the Melting Pot. It was a nice little day trip for us! (see pictures above - note that the chocolate is LOOOONG gone)
Thank you, Lord, for: A great support network, here, there, and everywhere! Our hearts are just so blessed by all of you (and many others). It's amazing how loved we truly feel.

  1. You are right, the style of long dress in the back, shorter in the front IS In....I've been noticing that a lot. Be bold and brave ;) Mart
