23 weeks

What a crazy week!  This last weekend I went camping with my family and had a blast.  We go every year and I've been looking foward to it for months.  We were able to get down early on Friday and get our tent set up before dark (which is not normal, haha) and it felt great.  We enjoyed several s'mores made with Nutella (super yum), sat around the campfire telling stories, laughing, and staying warm, drank apple cider, and even spent some time looking through my cousin's telescope.  Amazing.  This being my first camping trip ever pregnant, I did well.  My husband and brother went on a long hike and took a canoe out on the pond while I took a nap, haha... I was very happy they were able to spend that time together (and I could take a rest too).
Had a great day with my friend today too.  It's been a long time since we have been able to hang out, just the two of us, and it was nice to get together.  I love that girl.  We can share anything with eachother and she always brightens my day.  Love you, Monica!
This sweet baby boy is moving so much.  And he sure is growing... well, at least I am.  I can't wait to see his little face.  I dream about it, every night.
How far along? 23 weeks.
Maternity clothes? Yes... I think I should have purchased the shirt I'm wearing in my update in a larger size.  It fits me now... now... probably not later :o/
Stretch marks? Not yet.
Sleep? I would love to... feels like I can use more after this week.
Miss Anything? My dad. I wish he was here to share this with.
Movement? Lots and lots.  It's fantastic.
Food cravings? Salsa again.  And Yoohoo again.
Anything making you queasy or sick? Ray's leche drink, it stinks and I could smell it across the room.
Gender? Boy.
Labor Signs? No.
Symptoms? Tired.  And numbness to my upper abdomen.  Apparently this is not uncommon and just a sign of growing/stretching.  It's uncomfortable but not painful.  That's all I can ask for.
Belly Button in or out? Still in, for now.
Wedding rings on or off? Keeping them on.
Mood? Very happy, great mood!
Looking forward to? Finally ordering that crib... still deciding and comparing prices.  I went to look at them again tonight.  So many decisions to make.
