Bump Update - 30 Weeks

Sorry for the cell phone pic...I was too lazy to download real pics to my computer!
How far along? 30 weeks
Baby Size: Cabbage - 15.7in and 2.75lbs. 
Total weight gain: Ugh...can I stop posting this part?  Haha...21 lbs.
Maternity clothes? All maternity.  I had a first this morning...one of my shirts was too short.  I was getting the belly breeze.  Oh the joys! 
Stretch marks? Not that I can see...just super dry, itchy winter skin!
Sleep: Doing pretty well.  One potty break a night, but sleeping on my side is the way to go lately, sleeping on my back is starting to get uncomfortable. 
Best moment this week: Of course hearing his little heart beat on Tuesday...that is always amazing! 
Miss Anything? A sandwich.  Every once in a while a nice turkey or Italian sandwich sounds so yummy. 
Movement: Oh my goodness...for the past 2-3 days he has been moving none stop.  Literally I feel like he's moving all day long.  I actually asked the nurse about it and she said it's completely normal.  Today he is much quieter...he's probably tired from the last few days of non-stop movement.  Haha! 
Food cravings: Cinnamon Rolls!  haha.  There's a story behind this one.  In elementary school one of the cafeteria workers, Lupe would make these delicious cinnamon rolls that were only served maybe twice a month on 'chili' day.  I just saw via Facebook the other day that Lupe is not doing so well.  Immediately I thought of those cinnamon rolls...and haven't stopped thinking about them since! 
Anything making you queasy or sick: I have had a few bouts of queasiness, randomly in the morning.  Nothing terrible...just a little blah! 
Gender: Bouncing Baby BOY
Symptoms:  It's been an interesting 2 weeks.  I've really felt pretty good...however recently I started getting Braxton Hicks contractions.  Ugh.  They're not painful, just a little uncomfortable.  They're more consistent than the Dr. likes to see them...so they're paying close attention.  In most cases, they say they'll get more intense from here as these are 'practice' contractions. 
Belly Button in or out? I'm pretty sure it's on the brink of being an 'out-y' 
Wedding rings on or off? On...majority of the time. 
Mood: I'm doing pretty well.  Just tracking these BH contractions is a little stressful and annoying at times.  Little boy has about 8-10 weeks left...as much as I've love to hold and kiss him, he needs to wait until April!  :) 
Looking forward to:  My baby shower this weekend!!!  I can't wait to see everyone!
