Baby's Growth: Size of a large jicama??? I have never heard to this thing before. I looked it up and placed a picture below. I know you were curious too! We are at about 17 inches long and a about 3 3/4 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: Not anything unusual this week. This cold weather has once again brought on my love for soup.
How I'm Feeling: I am becoming more tired. I think it may be from going back to school after Christmas break. I had more than 2 weeks of not doing much, and to go back running is a lot. I am sitting when I can!
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: Seeing my kids reactions when we came back from the break. I didn't realize how much my stomach grew, but they let me know quickly that I was bigger ;)
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 big day! We are at most, 8 weeks away. It's crazy to think he could be here in as little as 4 weeks! Josh was born 4 weeks early and weighed 8 pounds, so you never know!
Thankful for: The love and support from Josh and my friends and family. Everyone is so helpful and so kind. Ben Curtis is so blessed already by all those that love him. I can't wait to be his mommy!
