Stretch marks? Just "growing" marks I prefer to call them

Sleep: Ryan and I traded sides of the bed. Much better!! Maybe because we didn't inform Polo of the change. :)

Miss Anything? Fitting into all my pretty fall/winter clothes.

Movement: Lots!! A little wiggle-worm.

Food cravings: I know surprise... Chocolate Cake

Anything making you queasy or sick: Nope

Have you started to show yet: Oh yes!

Gender prediction: girl!

Labor Signs: Nope

Symptoms: Smallest. Bladder. Ever. ugh.

Belly Button in or out? In-ish

Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy!

Looking forward to: Camping this weekend, crispy weather, Polo getting his cone removed, Thanksgiving holiday in VB!

Sweet 26

Please note- my previous weekly pictures I have been wearing "baggy" items and using lighting that doesn't show the true size of Kennedy's growth. So please do not be alarmed at the "whoa" picture here! :) Its been a steady growth.

Stretch marks? Some marks are coming, but I hope those aren't forever.

Sleep: Still hanging in there

Best moment this week: Asheville visitors, Shea and Emily, came to play! Got to show them the house being built and my large self growing.

Miss Anything? Red Wine.

Movement: She is on the move from here to there. I am feel her behind my ribs and all.

Food cravings: Rice-crispy treats and sweetness

Anything making you queasy or sick: Nope

Have you started to show yet: Started? I look like whoa!

Gender prediction: girl!

Labor Signs: Nope

Symptoms: My back pain has finally subsided! Not sure what has changed, but thankful for the relief.

Belly Button in or out? In-ish

Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy, but sassy at times.

Looking forward to: My baby shower in Charlotte on November 10th- my mom, aunt Sandy, and favorite Sarah visiting for the special occasion!
Side note: I have my Glucose Test for Gestational Diabetes test this Wednesday! Hoping for great results and an easy time. I have to be there at 7:45am and sit around for an hour after I drink some lovely orange "juice". Not sure what to expect, but the less I know the better.

1 Year Anniversary :)

Hard to believe it's been a year since Ryan and I said "I Do". So much has happened over this year and am lucky to have him by my side to share it with. We realize this will be our only anniversary without children. Funny how that happened! :)
