24 weeks~6 months

Size of a cantaloupe!!!! I can't draw a cantaloupe..

How far along? 24 weeks
Total weight gain:
 12+ pounds. I’ll find out next week.
Maternity clothes? 
Mostly maternity for work. I'm jealous of people who work at home- I could totally live in yoga pants and a t-shirt.
Stretch marks? 
Nope
Sleep: 
Some nights good some nights bad. Sleeping on my side is really uncomfortable. My right hip has been bothering due to the fact that Jackson loves to hang out on that side. I think when I sleep on the right it just makes it worse. 
Best moment this week: 
My belly rounding out! It’s fun to dress a round bump! And seeing Jackson move my belly from the outside. I'm getting slightly nervous about how this will feel when he is 6-7 pounds. We ordered the mattress yesterday!! Big relief for me.
Miss Anything? 
Sleeping on my back!! I complain about this every night.
Movement: 
He is moving all the time now. I love it!  
Food cravings: 
Evil sweets! UGH. I can now see why people can gain so much weight. I do have cinnamon rolls in the frig waiting for me... uh oh. And I still really love tat or tots. This week I had a slight obsession with onion dip and chips. 
Anything making you queasy or sick: 
Chicken
Gender: 
BOY!
Labor Signs:
No and I’m not looking forward to the Braxton Hicks either.
Symptoms: 
Hip/back pain!! OW! If I don’t do too much and sit most of the day it’s good though. A couple days of reflux that wasn’t too fun. Some leg cramps at night. I haven’t been feeling well the past couple days. I think I’m coming down with something though. 
Belly Button in or out? 
"I'm coming out so you better get this party started..."
Half in..starting to come out.
Wedding rings on or off? 
On! YAY!
Have you started to show yet?
Ha. Yes. It’s not a question anymore! 
Happy or Moody most of the time: 
HAPPY!!! :))) I’m sure Jamie might disagree with this one :) 
Looking forward to: 
The next doctor’s appointment- Tuesday. Seeing What to Expect movie. Getting the mattress so I can put his cute sheets on! 
Workout:
The same! Did some yoga this week to help my back. It's been raining all week which really messes up my run/walks. Don't even talk to me about a treadmill. Devil machines. 
Reading:
The Vaccine Book. I know I know I can’t believe I’m actually reading this either but I am in no way saying NO to any vaccines. Jackson will be vaccinated I’m just researching the alternative schedule of vaccines. It’s been very interesting so far. Who knew how vaccines where made of? It’s actually very disgusting! And it convinced me to get my flu shot every year.. which I am bad about. And I even got the flu two years ago! 
Furry Babies:
They have been good lately! Oscar is craving attention ALL the time. 
Random:
Had my first labor dream. I was in the hospital in DECEMBER (whooo late baby) and I had really bad contractions in my hip. HAHAH I woke up with ta da hip pain and leg cramps. 
Scheduled our first appointment to meet with a pediatrician. It's not until June but I would like to have the pediatrician decided by the end of June. Birth classes July. Star in the show at Sea World in August. Jackson arrives in September! 

+/- 16 weeks!!!!! I love countdowns!
