24 weeks!

I'm 24 weeks (and 3 days)! 15ish weeks left!!!!!!

Pregnancy Highlights:

How Far Along: 24 Weeks

Size of baby: Lawson is the size of a papaya (Baby Center says ear of corn...weird)

Total Weight Gain/Loss: Gained 5-6 pounds

Maternity Clothes: All maternity pants, shirts are a mixture, I LIVE in dresses!

Gender: It's a BOY! Lawson Ryan Payne :)

Movement: Seriously, this kid either NEVER sleeps or sleeps like a crazy person! I get kicked 24/7...and I absolutely LOVE IT! Chris felt Lawson's kicks from the outside for the first time on 6/1/11. I told him to lay down on my stomach, and Lawson kicked his face...ha! Love it, already picking on Daddy!

Sleep: It's hit or miss. If I can get all my pillows situated the right way and I stay on my side, I sleep ok until 2 or 3 whenever I have to go to the bathroom. If the pillows move and I roll onto my back, I do not sleep well AT ALL!
What I miss: Being able to bend over, ha! Being tan and being skinny too!
Cravings: Strawberries!

Symptoms: Back pain/being unable to lay on my back, growing belly, fatigue (although I blame that more on the end of the school year than pregnancy), and ALWAYS hungry!

Best Moment this week: Working on Lawson's room. It's definitely not finished, but we are getting closer! Next post will be his nursery progress so far!

I didn't take a belly picture from this week, but here is one from last Tuesday (23w, 4d), so it's close enough. :)
