Christmas & Bump Update - 26 Weeks

It's already 2013!  How did that happen...So I'm going to back track a little bit.  We had a great white-Christmas.  We went back home for a few days and we really had a great time.  We did a lot of relaxing and eating.  I didn't take a ton of pictures, but here are a few.  Oh yeah, and here's my Christmas card.  (I know it's a little late, but I really like how they turned out!)







It's so hard to believe that Christmas is already behind us and the 2nd day of 2013 is a few hours away.  Hope everyone had a great one!  Here's my 26 week bump update!


How far along? 26 weeks
Baby Size: Hothouse Cucumber - 14 inches and 1.75 lb
Total weight gain: 16 lbs.  
Maternity clothes? All maternity jeans, all the time.  I'm still able to wear my pre-maternity shirts, but a few of them are getting a little short and the bottom of my belly gets a little drafty!
Stretch marks?  Just dry, itchy skin that I can see. 
Sleep: I know my days are numbered with good sleep, but I really can't complain.  My back does start hurting about half-way through the night, but I'm surviving. 
Best moment this week: I'm going to pull something from last week.  I'll have to say Christmas!  It was exciting to know that next year we'll have our sweet little boy with us and of course he got some cute stuff this Christmas already.  :)
Miss Anything? Cookie dough!  Haha.  When we were back at home last week my Mom was making biscochitos and I wanted some of the dough so bad!  Haha!
Movement:  Kicking like a football player.  :)  It's been fun to see the progress and how his little kicks were so low and now he's venturing up (into my ribs), which isn't too fun...but it's still exciting.   
Food cravings: My Momma's Famous Carrot Cake!  She didn't make any this year and that's all I can think about.  I might have to steal the recipe! 
Anything making you queasy or sick: Nope...doing well!
Gender: All BOY
Symptoms:  My back is starting to hurt a little more, occasional tailbone pain and bloating. 
Belly Button in or out? In
Wedding rings on or off? On
Mood:  Good!  It's so hard to believe that we only have about 14 weeks left!
Looking forward to:  Just continuing to get his nursery done...we're moving along slowly but surely!
