Baby's Growth: Size of a head of coconut! We are at about 16 inches long and a about 3.5 pounds. I can't believe how much more weight he is going to gain before all is said and done. I feel like there is already no more room for him to grow.
Boy or Girl: Boy! We are naming him Benjamin Curtis Dove after his grandfather, Ben, Josh's dad, and his great-grandfather, Curtis, my dad's dad. We will call him Ben Curtis.
Cravings: The other night at dinner I ordered a side salad with ranch and a side of fries. It was weird but was what I was in the mood for. I am also loving pancakes!
How I'm Feeling: I am still feeling really great. I am tired by 9ish every night, but I have always been a person to go to bed early. My back has been a little sore lately, but that's about it! I'm wondering when the exhaustion will come back. I have heard around 32 weeks you start feeling tired again.
Movement: I am feeling lots of kicks these days. I feel him kicking all the time now. My stomach will just start moving and it is the coolest feeling. I also think he keeps his feet up by my ribs. That's not so comfortable.
Favorite Moment this Week: We have been working like crazy to finish the nursery. We almost have everything complete. I can't wait to share it with everyone!
Sleeping: I average about eight hours a night, give or take. I have always slept at least eight hours at night, and I'm thankful that has not changed! I do get up a couple times to use the bathroom, but I usually can fall back asleep pretty quickly. I am very thankful for sleep right now!
Clothes: My leggings are definitely the most comfortable things right now. I feel like all of my pants with the bands are getting tighter and tighter...I am wondering if I will have to get another pair before all is said and done.
Most looking forward to: The nursery glider coming. We ordered it and it should be here this week!
Thankful for: I am so thankful for the new year! 2014 is going to be filled with many new experiences, and I am so thankful for all of them! I can't wait to hold Ben Curtis in my arms and watch Josh become a father.
