19 Weeks, 2 days
Sorry, no belly picture this week. But I have something better! :)
Size of Baby: Heirloom Tomato. About 6 inches long and 8.5oz. I REALLY don't understand these size pictures....doesn't a tomato seem smaller than a sweet potato?? Hmm.
Symptoms: STILL nauseous.... Jeesh. Feeling little flutters and kicks lots today! :) So exciting! SUPER tired...but I'm sure our babymoon/Trip to NY has something to do with that too. Having some more round ligament pain lately too. With all of the walking in New York City over the weekend, my hips got pretty sore and my knee. I can't imagine how sore I will get once I'm actually huge :/
Cravings: Potato Salad and Jelly Beans! I have been wanting jelly beans for awhile now but just kept telling myself I would have to wait until Easter. AND THEN! Jim and I were walking through a store in New York and BAM! There were jelly beans :) Best day ever!! I was also really craving potato salad on Thursday night (right before leaving for NY and didn't want to have it go to waste in the fridge). But my wonderful hubby brought me home a single serving from the deli at Cub Foods :) Best Christmas present ever! Or so I thought at the time :)
Something I miss: Have I said I miss clear skin? And feeling good? And having control of my body? ha ha
Milestones: Getting to see our little BOY for the first time!!!!!!!!! :) Jim and I went to New York City for a little "Baby Moon" before going to spend Christmas with Jim's family in Upstate NY. Since we got engaged in NYC just over a year ago, Jim decided to surprise me with an ultrasound for finding out our baby's gender. We had really been hoping to do this with our Doctor before Christmas but couldn't get in until January 2nd. Jim gave me a card with clues in it on the air plane Friday morning. I didn't take me TOO long to guess that we were going to have an Ultrasound THAT NIGHT!!! We went to the ultrasound and got to watch our little man stretch and suck his thumb. This mama is in love :) We both left the scan pretty sure that it was a boy, but we asked the technician to not tell us. Instead, we had her write "It's a ______" on a postcard of the tree at Rockefeller Center. We then took the postcard and all the ultrasound pictures and looked at them under the tree at Rockefeller Center by the ice rink...where we got engaged. Sooo amazing! Christian James will be here before we know it! Can't wait to see his little face and count all his fingers and toes! BEST. CHRISTMAS. EVER. :)

The big reveal at Rockefeller Center!!
Looking Forward to: Seeing Christian again at our ultrasound on January 2nd!!! :) Starting our baby registry and getting the nursery set up! So many fun things to come!
Pictures and post about our baby moon coming soon!
MERRY CHRISTMAS!
