Week 13...

Your Size: A Peach, one of my favorite fruits!

Your Due Date: November 12th

Maternity clothes? They are amazing.

Sleep: Oddly getting more exhausted this trimester. I keep thinking that if I managed to sleep past 6A maybe I will be able to stay up past 8:30P… but seeing as I take 1-2 naps a day I don’t think what time I wake up really matter. At the end of the day I’m just plain exhausted from growing a tiny human in me.

This week’s adventure: Your first trip to the Spa! We went to the Four Seasons Spa up in Westlake for a maternity massage and a day of relaxation… It was simply amazing. We also got to celebrate my first Mothers Day with your Grandma & Grandpa. It was great and got me even more excited for you!

Miss anything? My ability to resist food!

Movement: You don’t seem to like it when I roll up on my side at night, you always give me just a tiny tiny kick back when I do that!

Your favorite foods: Luckily I’m able to eat more and more foods, but sadly you still seem to really like cheese and bread.

Anything making you queasy or sick: We’ve had a really crazy heat spell right now so the heat seems to make me the sickest.

Gender: We will know for sure in a week and a half, but we still are pretty sure you will be a little boy.

Labor signs: No.

Symptoms: Still lots of them, and you seem to be right on my bladder poking it a lot because I’m peeing all the time now! Trying to beat the heat at the movies has been hard since I have to skip off to the restroom halfway through the movies!

Belly button in or out?  Button in, but belly out!

Wedding rings on or off? on

Happy or moody most of the time: I started crying early this am in frustration with some chores I was doing, so I’m gonna say yup still moody.

Looking forward to: Hawaii in just under 2 weeks! Your first real vacation!

Advice to my soon-to-be baby:  Never forget just how important your friends are. When you are little they are the people you can play trains and trucks with, in high school they are the ones who help you get through those rough teen years, in college they help you make a home away from home and after college they really and truly become your family. There is the family you are born with and then there will be the equally important family that you choose!
