December is always a crazy month for us. Trying to fit in blogging is just impossible.
Hopefully today I will get a few pics up and a few updates.
All in all we are doing well. See you later today.

15 weeks and growing!
How Many Weeks? 15 weeks, which is a bit depressing since I thought I was on week 16. I have no idea where I even got that from. Maybe it is the size of the bump that has me thrown off ? Exhibit A: 
Um- seriously? Wow.
What is baby up to? Continuing the march towards normal proportions, baby's legs now out measure the arms. And, finally, all four limbs have functional joints. The baby is squirming and wiggling like crazy down in the womb.
Weight Gain: not sure. I weigh myself at home but the scale here is not very reliable. I think about 3 lbs though.
Sleep: I am still sleeping pretty well.
How big is baby?: The size of a orange- 4 inches & 2.5 ounces. I am not sure how this is even possible! The bump would argue, if it could talk.
Movement: I feel the baby about 3 times a day. Usually I am relaxing and I can feel him or her.
Maternity clothes?: Uh- yeah, and I am loving them! They have so many stylish maternity clothes these days.
Food cravings?: Salt and Vinegar chips and Sour Patch Kids. Salt and Sugar are food groups right?
Gender: Still no feeling one way or the other. We are not finding out either. We will have our "BIG" ultrasound sometime in January.
Feeling: I am still tired. I am not sure if that is pregnancy related or being a mother of 3 related. Maybe a little of both? I have also been having headaches. Not just little baby aches either. They are monster headaches that about take me down. My doctor is deciding on something to help me with this, hopefully a good solution will be made quickly.
Health: besides the headaches I think I am doing well.
Belly Button: Still in and even deeper than before.

Weekly Pregnancy Update
Ok- I am going to try my hardest to update this blog every week. If you get lucky you might see me twice a week ;)
How Many Weeks? 14 weeks today (pic from 13 wks but no change)
The little baby is busy with thumb sucking, toe wiggling, and (not so cute but equally amazing) making urine and breathing amniotic fluid as the liver, kidneys and spleen continue to develop. Lanugo (thin, downy hair) is growing all over the body for warmth.
Weight Gain: ZERO!! Still shocked...
Sleep: No issues- except I like A LOT of it :)
How big is baby?: The size of a lemon- 3.4 inches & 1.5 ounces
Maternity clothes?: Yes.
Food cravings?: Salty chips mmmmmmmm.
Stretch marks?: No additional ones- not that I would be able to find them. I already look like I was mauled by a tiger, or three.
Gender: Don't know and we plan to keep it that way until the baby gets here. I have no feeling yet on what I think it is. I am sure as the weeks progress I will have guesses.
Feeling: I am tired a lot and still fighting nasuea but it is getting better. Heartburn is a daily thing too. It is driving me nuts. Everytime I eat something I have to follow with a bunch of chalky Tums. Ick.
Health: Blood pressure is still perfect.
Movement: I think I have felt the baby a few times but it could be gas ;)
Belly Button: In. In fact it is in so much that a Polly Pocket could use it as a pool, for herself and a few friends. It is insane how deep it is. I can stick my finger in there and lose 1/3 of it in there. It is wide too. I have considered putting a bandaid over it or stuffing it with tissue a few times to make it even with my belly. You can see the massiveness in my shirts. Gross.
