Week 9

9 weeks along!

Little Bun is the size of a cherry- Mommy's favorite fruit! 

How far along? 9 Weeks

Maternity clothes: Okay, I'm guilty. The bump is starting to show a little and I am tired of zippers already. Those maternity pants I bought for later in the fall? Yeah, I'm wearing them now and I am unashamed. God invented stretch waistbands for a reason, and that reason is early pregnancy bloating. 
Sleep: I am trying to enjoy sleeping on my back, my favorite sleeping position, while I can. Since I am falling asleep so early every night, I am getting plenty of rest, even when I get up with Max in the middle of the night. Zzzzzz....

Best moments this week: 

Going back to work and getting my classroom all set up. I know this isn't really baby related, but I am really excited to be teaching Pre-K at my old school again this year. It is so nice to be back in a familiar place with teachers and students that I know. Go Bears!  

Miss Anything? Max as my only alarm clock.

Movement: Not yet.
Food aversions: Sweets; this baby loves all things savory! I wonder if the difference in cravings means this baby will be a girl?
Food cravings: Indian. I want naan, curry, samosas, chana masala, you name it. I found a new Indian restaurant and we are going to try it Tuesday night! Ice cream has been sneaking back in to my diet too...
Anything making you queasy or sick: Sorry coffee, you are finally out- Little Bun and I are all about decaf English Breakfast now. 
Gender: Bows or bow ties?
Labor Signs: no
Symptoms: Fatigue, breast tenderness, thirst, frequent trips to the bathroom,bloating/ the bump is starting to show!
Belly Button in or out? In
Wedding rings on or off? On :-)
Happy or Moody most of the time: So Happy! Also somewhat emotional- NPR has me tearing up all the time now.
Looking forward to: Announcing our news to everyone in a few weeks!
