19 weeks

grey tutu dress, tights, boots, christmas bow

Baby is now the size of:  A mango and after having a mango margarita last summer, 
I now know I am allergic to them.  Bummer. 
Total weight gain: 9 pounds

Maternity clothes: No but I wore yoga pants most of the week.  Being a stay at home mom has its perks.

Sleep: Still great at night.  Sometimes I have to take a nap when Solis does.  I've been a sleeping maniac lately.

Favorite meal this week:  So many.  The tomato tilapia dish is one of my new faves (you can find the recipe in the recipe link at the top).  Salmon BLT's are also one of our favorite meals.  And I tried to recreate the Chipotle chicken bowl with brown rice, stir fry veggies, fresh shredded cheddar, and grilled chicken marinated with this amazing packet.  Shaun and Solis added beans to their bowls.

Cravings: Cheese its, so random for me b/c I don't munch on chip type products at all.
Exercise: 4 days running at 35 minutes, 1 day elliptical at 35 minutes, 1 day of P90X legs.  Felt great to up my running minutes!

Sickness: None but on some days I'll get a nasty headache.  Never had headaches when I was pregnant with Solis.  Aren't they delightful.

Worst moment this week: Solis woke up in the middle of the night crying.  Many times.  So unlike her b/c she's a rock star sleeper (thank you babywise).  The next morning we knew why.....a nasty cold.  She hasn't been sick in months and handles her colds like a champ but that night time waking just reminded us of what life will be like in a few months....

Best moment this week: I started to feel the baby move!!  I love sitting with my hand on my belly feeling movements.  It's happening multiple times a day.  Now I finally feel pregnant :)

Looking forward to: Our 20 week ultrasound where we will find out the gender!! But after the subchorionic hemorrhage scare in the first trimester, we just want to see our baby again and pray everything is going well.
