23 weeks


How far along?: 23 Weeks

How big is baby?: 11.5 in 1.1 lbs
Food cravings?: Not really anything in particular right now. Maybe ice cream, and I am thirsty a lot. I'm also eating like a 15 year old boy right now with how hungry I am.
What I'm looking forward to: Dr's appointment on Wednesday, those are always nice.
Milestone: This milestone makes me breathe a teeny tiny sigh of relief. Ella is far enough along in her development that she could have a chance at survival outside the womb. Basically all of her organs are developed and functioning, we now just need the next 17 weeks for those systems to mature.
Sleep?: Doing okay, just thave to pee all the time.
Best moment this week?: This week has been pretty lazy, not a lot going on. AJ and I were able to squeeze in some time for us over my weekend, so that has been nice.
Feelings this week?: I'm feeling pretty big this week, but I think the growing has slowed a little bit. I think I'm about the same size this week as I was during week 25 with Sam. So I'm not that much bigger. We're also thinking about middle names, I was really set on Jane for the longest time, no matter what the first name was... but since we decided on Gabriella, I've been thinking Rose might sound better as her middle name. We're still not sure, they both sound great so we haven't made any decisions yet.

I'm a little disappointed that we aren't farther along in her nursery, but it's a lot harder to find the time when we have another little one to manage. We were done with the nursery for Sam by this time when I was pregnant with him. I guess this Wednesday we'll have to just get on it. I need to clean out the rest of the furniture in that room and vacuum and carpet clean before we paint or anything. Hopefully we can get that taken care of this weekend.

Other than that, not much else going on. Sam amazes me every day, he's talking really well lately and says 3-4 word sentences now!
