Half Way There!-20 Week Update

I can not believe that I am already halfway through my pregnancy with Ela's little sister! I will admit, being a working mom, and with a husband on the go, I was a little nervous about being pregnant with a toddler. As it turns out, I have been having a good pregnancy to date and to be honest, I just don't have time to feel sick, tired or even think about it. In ways it has been much easier this go around. Here is the update!

**Whats going on this week?!**

How far along? 20 Weeks- Half Mark Milestone!
How many weeks left? 20 Weeks
Total weight gain: 8 pounds
Maternity clothes? Yes, and much earlier this go around
Food Craving of the Week: Bagels and Coconut Macaroon Special Edition by Hagen Daaz (not together)
Sleep: This week has been rough. Still fighting a remaining sinus infection
Best moment this week: Going to the Zoo with my little Ela
Movement: Yes, yes and yes. I think we are going to have a hyper one on our hands again.
Belly Button in or out? In and that is where it needs to stay. 
What I miss: Having a beer in this warm weather
What I am looking forward to: Tomasz finishing up training
Weekly Wisdom: Keep exercising
Milestones: I saw a full butt roll in the belly, Baby Girl had her toushy straight up in the air!
Ela's thoughts on Baby Sister: She is super excited and even named her baby doll sister. She also wants "sister " to sleep in her bed when she is born. 


Baby Sister will soon have a name...We have narrowed it down to two names and just need to pick a middle name that sounds good with the names that we picked. Baby Sister sure is an active little girl already and in my latest sonogram, she was punching the doppler as the tech was rolling it over my belly. She was so active that the lab tech even called in another tech to watch as it was so funny seeing her punch my belly. From the looks of Baby Sister now she will probably be a small baby at just at 6 pounds unless she has a major growth spurt. Just like her big sister! 

We are so excited and even just put down a deposit, for daycare at Ela's school for after she is born. :) 5 more months to go seems so far away some days and just around the corner on others. Ela and I are headed off to Ikea to organize her room to prepare for her little sister's arrival. (Yes nesting started WAY earlier this time)

Until next time....
