Hmm... What to put... Getting bigger. Officially made the transition to maternity clothes, and realizing for some reason I just don't have that many warm shirts...For sure a boy- I spotted it too ;-) Ultrasound measured 2 days ahead of schedule- safe there. Pretty active, but not too "bothersome" keeping me awake or anything. I have had some extremely sharp kicks to my pelvis area, which is different because Melia and Kiera were both head down most of the time. But he's still pretty little, so rolling around a lot I'm sure. (Babycenter says the size of a spagetti squash, but I don't know what that is.... although I have considered planting them next year! :-)
I was starting to have trouble sleeping when Gabe was home, but not so much when he was working... we figured out this week that that slight tilt to the mattress makes a big difference when I tilt on to my belly! Uncomfortable! So we put the mattress topper back on the bed and we'll see how that helps.
We've also started training the girls to let Mommy sleep more in the morning (unless preschool) to help them understand better when brother comes that Mommy will need to not be bothered when she's sleeping. (Thankfully, Gabe has totally stepped up and taken this on- I was harboring guilt over asking them to let me have some rest, but he has been MORE than supportive! How grateful I am for my husband!) He has also been really great in understanding my prego brain- lately in the afternoon, if I don't have a plan, nothing happens. If I mess up dinner, then I just can't think well enough to figure out something else to make (we ended up with PB&J...and then Subway...) I think I need to remember my Omega3s; baby is taking all my brain food! :-)
And how big am I? Depending on who you talk to: I am just starting to show, or I am nearly there. Take your pick. (Literally, a guy at work was counseling me to make sure if I feel weird or anything, let him know, he'll call the paramedics in a flash! And he'll hold my hand, but he won't deliver! Love the concern, but... it's a little early, dontcha think?) I feel like I'm bigger, but also that I'm growing differently. I also really think I am feeling hiccups. I remember them from before, a gentle rhythmic motion, but not this early! Do they get them this early or is it only later?

Oh you need to post pics!! I am already quite huge...Christmas eating fest didn't help:) I am obviously showing to pretty much everyone now:) I think our girl measured about 2 days bigger than due date too! Maybe we'll be in labor in hospitals across the state from eachother on the same day! That would be fun:)
