Size of baby: Avocado. Over 4 1/2" and weighing about 3.5 ounces!
Weight gain: No change
Maternity clothes: This week, my mother-in-law was kind enough to take me shopping for some maternity jeans for my birthday. I got two pairs of maternity skinny jeans in dark wash and black. These are the greatest things ever invented! They look like jeans but they feel like you're wearing yoga pants! Amazing.
Nursery: Trey's Uncle Bill put together our crib during their visit this week! It looks so great and really makes the room feel like a nursery. He did it in under an hour, too - which was very impressive!
Development / Movement: Baby Squish is growing hair, eyelashes, and eyebrows. He/she can also hear our voices! This makes me happy and I plan on playing lots of music for Squish in the next several months.
Sleep: I slept pretty well this week but have been having lots of weird dreams (thanks to pregnancy hormones), so I have been feeling a little groggy. I got to nap a few times this week, which helped.
What I miss: This is a funny one. I don't miss it yet, but I know that I'm going to have to take out my belly button piercing now that my belly is growing. It is kind of silly, but I have had it since I was 17 years old, so I am a little attached.
Best moment this week: We had a fun week with my husband's family. Lots of little activities and a short trip to the Sunshine Coast. We also celebrated my birthday on the Sunday and Monday before the Geigers and Millers arrived. That was really nice. We had a birthday brunch with friends at our house on Sunday and on Monday (the 19th, my actual birthday), Trey sent me to the Sense Spa at Hotel Georgia for a relaxing body wrap and massage. Later that evening we went to Coast for dinner together. Very nice birthday "week" all around! Photos below.
Looking forward to: Today I am going shopping with Anita and Linden, and this evening I'm getting a pedicure with Christie. Not a bad day! Also looking dinner with Nafeesa on Wednesday and a visit from Aliyah on Thursday. Most of all, I'm looking forward to spending the long weekend with Anita, Jeff, and Anita's parents, Vyvienne and Neil in Fintry (Kelowna). We always have a great time there and the dogs also love it! We are due for a relaxing weekend in the sun, that's for sure.
Cravings: Pickles and cheese. I have to admit, I often crave pickles and cheese, but this week I feel like I could eat them every day. Yeah, together. It is delicious and you should try it.
Symptoms: Feeling pretty good. A few headaches this week again, but nothing too dramatic.
Workouts: Same - weight training mostly. Walking.
