size of baby: baby "a" is the size of an avocado (yum! now i want some guacamole....maybe we'll do tacos for dinner ;0p)
sleep: my brain needs a timeout. a serious timeout. especially during the hours of midnight and 7am because this mama to be needs some sleep.
total weight gain: holding steady at +2 lbs.
symptoms: i feel pretty good overall.

movement: not yet, but i hear you can start to feel the baby kick anytime between 16 weeks and 22 weeks so i'm anxiously waiting!
maternity clothes: while most of my clothes are still fitting, they are getting snug. so i went ahead and bit the bullet and purchased a pair of maternity jeans and some leggings. can i just say that maternity jeans are the BEST THING EVER. i don't care if you're pregnant or not. these babies are comfy. you should buy them.
go to eats: fruit. fruit. fruit. my new favorite: the grapefruit cups from costco. holy yum!
best moment of the week: my mama bought us a car seat a few weeks ago and we purchased a stroller, bassinet and diaper bags this past week. we our officially purchasing baby gear and woah does it make this feel real. (look how cute our stroller/bassinet combo is)
gender: we find out april 1st. hopefully the little nugget doesn't try and play an april fool's joke on his or her mama and papa.
what i wish people knew: pregnany hormones are no joke. while i've been blessed to not have morning sickness or heartburn (yet)....i'm one raging, crazy pregnant lady. and while i would love to say that i'm one of those women who loves being pregnant, i don't think i am. don't get me wrong, the end result is totally worth it, and i would and will do it again in a heartbeat so that baby a has a little brother or sister to play with one day, but being pregnant is hard (emotionally) and i'm not a fan.

what i'm looking forward to: our upcoming doctors appointment on thursday. it's always fun to check in on the nugget and hear his/her's little heartbeat.
milestones: baby is growing fast and almost doubling in size each week!
