Fruit of the Week: 20 weeks

How far along: 20 weeks
Maternity Clothes: There are a few tops that I can still wear that aren't maternity, but they grow shorter and shorter each week
Stretch Marks: Not yet (knock on wood)
Sleep: Down to one bathroom break and I tend to avoid a lot of sugar before bed which seems to cut back on the dreams
Best Moment this Week: Shopping for something special to wear for the Pink & Blue party
Movement: Oh yeah! Especially right in the morning and at night. And then an occasional head poke by the belly button!
Food Cravings: Still nothing really. Wondering when this will kick in and when I'll start adding the weight.
Gender: Finding out tomorrow!!!
Labor Signs: None, thank goodness! Have to wait another 18 weeks atleast please!
Belly Button: Not what it used to be. Wider and more shallow, but still an innie (please, please stay that way!)
What I Miss: Not really missing too much of anything this week! Just enjoying being pregnant!
What I'm Looking Forward to this Week: Finding out whether Baby A is a boy or girl, the Pink & Blue party, spending time with family and friends, and Costco Chocolate cake!!! I sooo can't wait for this!
Weekly Wisdom: Seems like I'm fresh out of wisdom for the moment.

Yay, I'm halfway through!!! Baby A is 20 weeks today, and the size of a cantaloupe!!! So many exciting things are beginning to happen, and I can't wait for more! Tomorrow is our anatomy ultrasound and we get to find out if Baby A is a boy or girl (well, hopefully baby will cooperate and flash the goods!). I'm really, really looking forward to this and feel like once I know the sex that this baby becomes even more "real"
Thursday will be our 20 week appointment with Dr. Song, and then we head down to Portland to par-tay! Friday night is our Pink & Blue party, and I'm still trying to figure out a fun way to reveal the news (yes, I'm a bit of a procrastinater!) Saturday I'm spending a special day with my mom, then Sunday we are taking my dad home with us so he can get started on the many, many projects that are accumulating!
My summer schedule is filling up pretty fast these days, with baby appointments, parties, and photo sessions with clients! I can't believe that a few weeks ago I was nervous because I didn't have a whole lot of bookings, but my June weekends quickly filled up, and July is halfway full! Which is great, because the more sessions I have, the more $$$ I can spend on Baby! This kid isn't going to be spoiled at all.... ;)
