Fruits

Poppy seed, pea, grape, olive, key lime, kiwi, lemon..... All the fruit comparisons for the size of Baby Taylor over the last few weeks.  And then they throw in the size of my uterus which is between the size of a softball or small melon.  It is overwhelming and confusing trying to keep track of what fruit (or other circular object) Peanut is the size of.  And every place you look tells you something different; one website says a fig and another says a lemon.  I thought those were different :-) Well no matter what size Peanut is he/she is doing really good.  We had an appointment today and heard the heartbeat again, which is "fast and strong," according to our midwife.  The heartbeat was at 150 beats per minute, which according to the old wive's tale means it's a girl (also according to the midwife).  I am still thinking boy, but we shall see.  (Only 28 more weeks to wait-wow- how did that number get so small already).

This is my 5th day in a row with no nap and I am feeling pretty good.  There for about 4 weeks I was taking a nap everyday.  I am really tired about 8:30, but can make it until then without a nap.  Maybe I will start to get some energy so I can start to conquer my summer to-do list :-) Other than that I am feeling great.

Other than that not too much is new; we get another ultrasound next week on July 2nd and I am so excited to see Baby Taylor again!

How far along: 11 weeks (almost 12)
Maternity clothes? Not yet... but I can see a little bump 
Sleep: Been sleeping great at night the last few days and not needing a nap lately.
Best moment this week: Hearing the heartbeat today-nothing is better than that sound!
Miss Anything? We went to a wedding this last weekend and I would have really liked to drink an alcoholic beverage, just one.
Movement: Not yet (I can't wait until that happens)
Food cravings: This is going to sound like one of those "weird pregnancy cravings," but I actually used to eat it when I was little and we would go to Chi-chi's Mexican Restaurant.  I really want to dip tortilla chips in a virgin strawberry daiquiri.  Don't judge it until you try it!
Anything making you queasy or sick:  Not really the last four weeks. It has been so much better.  There are still times I don't feel 100%, but it is so much better!

Gender: I think boy, but a lot of the old wives tales say girl.
Labor Signs: no

Symptoms: Nothing really
Belly Button in or out? In
Wedding rings on or off? On 
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy (and not as tired)
Looking forward to: Our next ultrasound!
