Pregnancy Update: 22 Weeks

How far along: 22 weeks.
 

How big is baby: The size of a spaghetti squash.
 

Weight gain: I know in this particular picture I look freakish huge, but I don't think I look that big every day.  I am still doing well with my weight gain.
 

Sleeping: Lately I have been sleeping well.  I hope it continues!
 

Food cravings: Still French Fries.  And sweets.
 

Food aversions: Everything.  I made enchiladas for dinner last night and couldn't bring myself to eat them.
 

Other symptoms: Super bionic nose is still in full effect.  We went to an all you can buffet today and the combination of smells was so overwhelming. Mood swings abound too.  One minute I am laughing the next I am bawling.  Also if I sit or stand for too long, my back is starting to sort of lock up.  

Miss Anything? Nothing comes to mind.
 

Doctor’s appointment: Not till next week.
 

 Wedding Rings: Still on!
 

 Clothes: Same old, same old.  Nothing new to report on.
 

 Movement: Lots! Especially at night.
 

 Best moment of the week: We had a lovely holiday today.  We slept in, went to a buffet, finally worked on the baby registry, and then started painting the baby's room.  Also we finally agreed on a name.  It will be announced later.  

 What I’m looking forward to: Finishing up that front bedroom.  My parents are bringing out the rocking chair and the crib next weekend.  We also want to repaint the little white dresser that will go in there.  It is a little bit old and worn.
 

What I did / Got for baby:   Lots and lots of clothes!  My mom had bought some clothes from a discount website, then we got some stuff at a yard sale over the weekend, and then I got a ton of stuff on super clearance from Target and Gap for next summer.  We also bought some pink paint and got a coat up on the wall of the front bedroom. 

 It will need another coat, but I feel good about what we accomplished today.  

Tomorrow is the first day of school with kids for me and Isaac's first day of third grade.  It is sad to say good-bye to summer so soon, but fall is always so fun.
