Baby Size: Banana
We had our 20 week ultrasound this week! Baby was positioned very oddly so it was difficult to get any good pictures. The tech almost could not find out the gender. Normally I would be fine with that and not find out, but my mom has been working on a surprise for revealing the gender for WEEKS. I was determined to find out! She told me to keep coughing and roll around. At the end she got it!
How I Feel about being Pregnant: Great! Still a very easy pregnancy and starting to get a more firm bump vs. the beginning stages where it looks like you ate too much. I still can't believe I am half way done, if not more than half way!
Symptoms: Still some eczema and random nausea. Not too bad though! I have definitely learned how to keep the eczema at bay. I already feel like it requires more effort to do physical things... like taking off skinny jeans. Hard life, guys. I should probably do some lunges.
Food Cravings: Pizza! I love all pizza, all the time. I got to eat Dewey's this week and it was everything I hoped for.
Food Aversions: Not too much!
What I am Excited About: Our gender reveal party on Sunday! Two more days and we find out boy/girl! Yayyyy!
Sweet Thing My Husband did for Me: He went all out for my birthday a couple weeks ago! I had sent him a picture of a Yeti coffee cup I wanted and that same day he stopped to get me one on his way home for work. Hot coffee!!!
Boy or Girl: Girl! I really am so convinced!
Something I have Done to Prepare for the Baby: We created baby name brackets for March Madness. Does that count? It did help us brain storm more names! We took away Bennett's pacifier which is still mildly painful, but we did it! Potty training begins in 2 weeks! I can do hard things! Any new baby items that have some out recently that are worth buying? What did you buy new for a third baby?
Funny Moment: Bennett has been walking around lifting his shirt up and saying "baby belly". It is super cute. I love having kids old enough to know what is going on.
No bump picture this week, but I will need to start taking more regular pictures since this belly is growing exponentially now.

Baby Shook #3: 17 weeks
Baby Size: Pear
How I Feel about being Pregnant: Love it so far! This has been my easiest pregnancy and I really can't believe I am almost half way. Really, if you compare to my other pregnancies this is about half way! I will be 18 weeks tomorrow and Gwen was born at 36 weeks.
Symptoms: Eczema. We have reached the stage where I am asked daily why my eyes are red and if I had been crying. It is not as bad as things were with Gwen, but only because I know a lot of the tricks now.
I still have some random nausea. It is not every day, but a few times a week.
Food Cravings: Bagel with cream cheese! Guys, being gluten free and dairy free while pregnant is not fun! I might cave one day and splurge on $10 gluten free bagels with vegan cream cheese.
Food Aversions: Not any obvious ones! Sometimes guacamole doesn't sound good, though I average eating an avocado a day so it must be more of a texture thing!
What I am Excited About: I go for my 20 week ultrasound 2 weeks from tomorrow! I have to wait to find out the gender until our gender reveal party which is 3 weeks from today! Things have just flown by.
Sweet Thing My Husband did for Me: He let me get out of bedtime tonight because I said I was feeling nauseous! I will always take that!
Boy or Girl: Girl. This is exactly why I need to find out the gender because there isn't a doubt in my mind it is a girl. We even have 3 girl names picked out, but no boy names.
Something I have Done to Prepare for the Baby: I really need to reread my blog posts from when I was pregnant with Gwen because I have done nothing to prepare and I am wondering if I am supposed to be doing something? We did say we need to potty train Bennett and finally take away the pacifier. Only 18-20 weeks left to do both! Pray for us.
Funny Moment: I went to a baby shower for a friend having a girl. There were tons of balloons leftover so we took them for the kids to play with. We were at Crossroads and I had them sitting in the hallway. Everyone thought it was some sort of announcement that we were having a girl!
I actually have a bump picture! Maybe I will take more "formal" pictures, but for now all you get is a dressing room pic from trying on a dress in the Bargain Hunt dressing room. The dress was $2 and you better believe I bought it for that price.
