In Aaron & Allison's backyard, with a bonus Madeline thrown in there for good measure! To catch myself up, I have to compare to 2 weeks last time with Annie - 19 weeks, 5 days and 20 weeks, 4 days.
Weight Gain: ?
Symptoms: Well, if you made it through my epic day in the life, you know that I puked again on Saturday. Seriously. I also felt pretty crappy tonight too, just nauseous and gross and tired. So, still have off days. Other than that though, nothing too bad - no heartburn or pain.
What's different this time: My belly button is already creeping out! Ugh! I found that so annoying last time and it's coming way sooner this time. Mostly annoying because it honestly kind of hurt to rub against clothes and hit right at the level of my desk at work. Also I'm finding that a few of my pairs of maternity pants from last time are basically falling off me now for some reason. I weigh the same, they were worn by a few others but maybe my butt is smaller now. No clue, but I wish they fit because I can't buy new stuff. Thankfully I still have some pants that work well.
Cravings: I crave feeling good and having a normal appetite.
Aversions: Depends on the day. Tonight the smell of ginger was pretty repulsive.
Sleep: Eh, okay. Not awesome, and I've been staying up too late because of my addiction to Make it or break it...
I am loving: I love Annie being a little clingy lately. It's nice since she's normally pretty independent. She's also not so clingy that it leads to repeated meltdowns... but just enough to want to give hugs and kisses and read lots of books. Very fun!
I miss: the usual.
I am looking forward to: our upcoming family trip with Ben's family, my work trip to Orlando if for nothing other than getting some free food for 2 days.
I'm spazzing about: I feel spaz is a strong word. I'm THINKING about how we are going to fit 2 kids and all their stuff in Annie's room, and how we can turn the office into a combo office/playroom. Those thoughts have not yet turned into any semblance of action.
Best thing about this week: despite feeling a bit crappy, it was nice to go out for sushi tonight. Annie and I also had lots of good times together this weekend.
Milestones: Belly button coming out, as mentioned above. Is that a milestone? To me it is. Oh yeah, and HALFWAY to my due date! Yay!
Movement: Yes, although there are still days where I only feel my little man when laying in bed, which freaks me out. I like feeling movement constantly pretty much. Luckily, thanks to my long torso (lorso, as TMed by Laura), the movement never hurt me since there is plenty of room to roam in there, so I just want to feel it all the time!
It's a...: Boy! Who already has tons of clothes, thanks to my boss' boss! Lots of little 0-6 month ZIPPERED sleepers (the best!), and a few cute outfits already purchased by my mom and sister :)
Exercise: Still, no.
Diet: It was okay. Pretty balanced at this point.

first, you are adorable at 20 weeks pg.
second, I would die if Truman copied Annie's sleeping-in skills. 7:37?!?! Also love the 'not so happy noises' being the reason you want to get out of bed----same here, for sure. Love to imagine that the 'happy noises' that come first might just fade back into sleep, but that never happens of course. :)
I hated the outie belly button... I put one of those round bandaids on it. You are looking so cute!
Super cute!
I have hate, hate, hated the smell/taste of ginger during this pregnancy. Except for the pickled ginger that comes with sushi!
Hi, just saw your comment on my blog - Congrats on #2, he will be almost a year younger than mine (2/22/11). I always think I'll have a boy next...IF I ever feel ready...my house already feels too small, I'm not worried about the space as much as how to not wake one kid up when the other is crying, ya know?
