31 Weeks with Baby #2

*BOOM! Look at that belly!! By contrast, take a look at the belly at 32 weeks with Kaiya here.*

How big is baby? 18 inches, about 4lbs
Maternity clothes? Oh yes. All the big maternity clothes. 
Sleep? I'm sleeping fairly well for being so big. I wake up once a night to pee, and sometimes I wake up absurdly early and can't get back to sleep, but overall I'm sleeping well.
Movement? Oh yes. This girl knows how to make herself known.
Food cravings? Still with the sugar. Often, it's chocolate.

Food Aversions? Nope. Though I do avoid spicy foods because of the horrible heartburn.
Gender? ALL girl:)
Pregnancy Symptoms? Heartburn. Ugh.
Belly Button in or out? In
What I miss: Big, frosty, salty margaritas :)

What I am looking forward to: Right now I'm looking forward to closing on our new house so that we can get moved in and set up the girls' room!
Upcoming appointments/events: Our family/maternity photos this Sunday!
Weekly Wisdom: If you're like me and eating vegetables are a challenge, cut up raw veggies to snack on throughout the day.

15 Weeks with Baby #2!

How big is baby? 4 inches, 2.5 oz
Maternity clothes? Nope. Not yet.
Sleep? Like a rock, and as often as I can. I generally fall asleep shortly after Kaiya goes down.
Movement? A couple potential flutters...
Food cravings? Sugar. being the holiday season, there are plenty of cookies and sweet goodies around. This baby is loving it. Mommy is about over sugar though :/

Food Aversions? Meat. Not as bad as with Kaiya, but I still can't stomach meat most of the time.
Gender? Don't know yet!
Pregnancy Symptoms? I'm still plagued with nausea, I get fatigued/out of breath easily, I've been experiencing morning headaches, and I'm tired by 8pm.
Belly Button in or out? In
What I miss: Having energy to do anything other than go to work, come home and crash. Also, tequila.

What I am looking forward to: Finding out if it's a girl or a boy! Everyone thinks it'll be a boy. Honestly, I think it'll be a boy too, but the one dream I've had of the baby, it was a girl. We're really hoping for another girl:)
Upcoming appointments/events: We're having our gender scan on January 15th!
Weekly Wisdom: Sometimes morning sickness doesn't abate at 12 weeks like everyone promises.
