Week 5

Let's see how fast it takes for me to "show" this time!

Little Bun is the size of an Appleseed.

How far along? 5 Weeks
Maternity clothes: Not yet, but does staying in my pjs until 2 pm count? Max, Little Bun, and I are loving our lazy summer days at home.
Sleep: Sleepless. It is no joke getting up in the night with our almost-toddler and getting enough sleep myself. He often goes right back to sleep, but it is really hard for me to do the same because my mind always seems to be racing. I am currently subsisting on naps I sneak when Max falls asleep during the day.

Best moments this week: Having time just to relax at home- and satisfying my first sweet craving, lemon cake. I had a dream about the most scrumptious lemon cake, so I packed us up and we went to the Barnes and Noble Cafe for breakfast (who can argue- Starbucks + employee discount!). I got a Lemon Raspberry Bar and it was every bit as delicious as I dreamed about, and so very satisfying. 

Miss Anything? Caffeine... I ordered a regular iced coffee and forgot about my caffeine limit (and the fact I haven't had any recently), and the headache I got in return was not pleasant.

Movement: Not yet...maybe in 6-8 weeks.
Food aversions: Most sweets still, milk of all kinds
Food cravings: Burgers and Fries (and I am not a meat person), Tacos, Lemon Cake, Hummus and Very Verde Good Tortilla Chips (I may have bought 4 bags because they were on sale).
Anything making you queasy or sick: Sweets, plain Greek yogurt, milk. I don't want to see them, smell them, or eat them.
Gender: Its a mystery for now...but Max keeps saying something that sounds a whole lot like "brother." Wouldn't that be strange/funny if our little man can tell the baby's gender somehow?
Labor Signs: none
Symptoms: fatigue, breast tenderness, occasional dizziness, light nausea, insomnia, moodiness
Belly Button in or out? In
Wedding rings on or off? On 
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy and excited
Looking forward to: Our family vacation to Atlanta!
