Baby #2 - Weeks 21-24



How far along: 24 weeks - Not much has changed in the last few weeks, other than the hugeness of my belly (which is all out in front and not all over, thank goodness!), so I thought I'd combine a few weeks. Of course the last pic was taken shortly after eating Subway, so that can account for some of the extra-hugeness. Although probably not as much as I'd like think. woof.
Maternity clothes: Still about 50/50, but I'm looking forward to getting some new cute stuff for spring.
Sleep: Better, if you overlook getting up 92 times to pee.
Best Moment: Zoey's third birthday. I can't believe she's already 3!
Missing anything: Honestly...alcohol. And I'm not even much of a drinker. But Z has been a lunatic challenge these last couple of months and I think a nice cocktail would make it a wee bit easier to deal with. 
Cravings: All the chocolate. I haven't had much of a taste for sweets since getting pregnant (which is a crazy thought if you know me at all), but I think it's starting to kick back in now. And since seeing this hilarious bit that Adele did on Ellen, I'm super craving Twizzlers now too! As for real food, I'm still wanting a good blackened mahi sandwich, and while looking for one of those in this town, we found some amazing fish tacos at a little local spot, seriously the best we've probably ever had. So now I want those all. the. time. I've already put in a request for their blackened tuna tacos as my first meal after this baby is born! They are that good.
Symptoms: Serious congestion, which is actually pretty typical for me this time of year, so I'm not sure if that counts as a pregancy symptom. I've also started the hip and lower back pain, which didn't start with Z until about the 8th month. Not sure if I'm just that much bigger (I seriously feel like I'm carrying a small whale), or if it's because I'm carrying a lot lower this time, but I'm waddling all over the place because of it. #notcute. I'm also feeling this wiggle worm moving like crazy. The Hubs has finally started feeling the pokes and jabs as the little guy swims around in there, but since he's most active in the evenings, Z hasn't had a chance yet.
Looking forward to: Getting my glucose test over with next week, and then we head home to Florida for a bit. The Hubs has to work down there, so we're making a little vacay out of the trip. Hoping it's a little bit warm when we visit so we can hit the pool, beach, and Brevard Zoo. Also looking forward to hitting our favorite places to eat, and f i n a l l y getting a great fish sandwich at LongDoggers!
