How far along: 16 weeks 3 days in this pic

Best moment this week: eating all the yummy food at the Maple Festival!!

Worst moment this week: still having puking episodes in the mornings

Miss anything: I STILL can't do coffee, I miss it so much. I make a coffee and I don't even take a sip. I just smell it and let it sit there knowing I won't be able to drink it

Movement: feeling more and more, can't wait for Chuck to be able to feel!

Cravings: I've officially eaten an entire box of Reeses Puff Cereal in 5 days.

Sleep: kinda sucky this week. hip pain and the neighbors dog barking non stop from 5:30am to 6:30 am!

Best moment this week: seeing the chiropractor! I was adjusted for the first time and it felt great! He is a holistic chiro, so his "palm readings" and "talking to the baby" were pretty interesting

Worst moment this week: fighting with a saleman at the Jeep dealership, you don't mess with a pregnant woman and her negotiating skills!

Miss anything: I STILL can't do coffee, I miss it so much

Movement: little squishy tickles and more frequently!

Cravings: CARROTS! Our friend Kevin made these carrot pierogies (seriously probably 4 years ago) at a party and I thought of them for one second and immediately was like "ok I NEED carrot pierogies, give me carrot everything"

Queasy or sick: Nothing terrible this week. Just haven't felt back to normal yet

Looking forward to: crib shopping!

Worst moment this week: having incredibly sore legs from shooting a wedding Saturday and crouching and running around for 10 hours

Miss anything: clothes fitting normally

Movement: little squishy tickles

Cravings: this week? Honest tea! The peach oolong is SOOO good

Queasy or sick: I had a horrrrrrible experience throwing up while driving having to pull over twice and 3 cars stop to see what I was doing, and I'm assuming they thought I was hammered

Cravings: spaghetti! Chuck doesn't really like spaghetti all the time, and I've been asking him for 4 days if we can have spaghetti for dinner, well thats what I'm making tonight

Queasy or sick: still gagging when my stomach gets empty

Looking forward to: feeling more movement!!

12 weeks and a trip to Florida

Did I mention that I'm pregnant with my best friend? AND my sister in law? How cool is that? We're all due in the same week! 

Last week my besties and I reunited in Florida for six glorious days in the sunshine. It was exactly what I needed to fuel some energy. Vitamin D and generous amounts of laughter is the cure for anything. 

How far along: 12 weeks

Gender: babies heart rate has been over 160 every appointment so I'm still guessing girl 

Weight gain:  you would think I wouldvd gained 100 lbs by the amount of food I consumed in Florida but I'm still under my pre pregnancy weight

Maternity clothes: thankful for dresses

Stretch marks: None

Belly button in or out: In

Sleep: my back has been killing me so sleep sucks

Best moment this week: relaxing in the sun with my best friends! 

Worst moment this week: projectile vomiting in a fancy restaurants bathroom immediately after finishing a yummy bowl of lobster bisque. 

Miss anything: working out and coffee still 

Movement: possibly feeling little tickles

Cravings: Anything with citrus. Can't have enough lemonade on hand 

Queasy or sick: It strikes in the most inconvenient times

Looking forward to: SUMMER!
