How big is baby: Baby is the size of a cucumber this week 15.2-16.7 inches and 2.5-3.8 lbs. The fruit/veggie sizes really confuse me sometimes. I mean, a cumber seems smaller to me than a squash. But I guess there is a difference in length.
Stretch marks: No.
Sleep: Waking up multiple times per night now. Usually only getting up to go to the bathroom once at night during the week. I can at least fall back to sleep right away though so far.

Diet/Cravings/Aversions: Still fruit and more fruit.
Exercise: Walking, YMCA.
Gender: We'll find out in October!
Movement: All the time. Lately, the movements have been less tap, tap-ish and more like the baby moves a limb, hits my stomach, and then slides the limb along the inside of my stomach. I feel like I'm going to see a footprint or hand print when it happens.
The belly: Definitely there.
What I'm spazzing about: Nothing really this week.
What I'm loving: Having almost everything crossed off our list. And only having 10 weeks left! Well, probably more assuming I go late. But still 10 weeks just seems crazy close!
Symptoms: Sore hips at night. Heartburn...mostly just reflux right now. Terrible back pain at work. And most recently, I've been noticing a small numb spot at the top of my uterus. I called the nurse today and she assured me it's normal. It has something to do with my nerve endings stretching. I've also been noticing more cramping particularly when working out. I've felt good on the elliptical. But one day while walking Wally, I really didn't think I'd make it home. The doctor told me to ease up a little and see if that stops it. If not, she said it might be time to give it up until after the baby is born since top priority right now is to keep this baby cooking for 10 more weeks. I went for walks since and felt great so maybe I just was dehydrated that day or was walking a little too fast.
What I'm looking forward to: I have my work shower next Monday. And in less than 3 weeks, we have my shower with my side. I have it on my list this week to organize the nursery in it's end position and to start organizing our shower items (what needs to be washed, etc.).
Best moment of the week: It was a crazy week/weekend with getting ready to go to Rockford this past weekend. My cousin's wedding was very nice. And our first shower was perfect. My mother-in-law really did a great job of putting it together. And everyone was so generous with gifts. Baby T feels so loved already!
Worst moment of the week....Aaron lost his wedding ring :( He had a golf outing on Friday, and he never wears it golfing, so he put it in his pocket (not the best idea which he realizes). At some point it fell out and it's no where to be found. He feels HORRIBLE. Thankfully, he bought the cheapest ring they had when we were buying it 4 years ago. So it's not about the money at all. The ring did mean a lot though sentiment-wise. It was blessed at our wedding...etc. Now we just have to get to the store to get him a new ring.
