18 weeks!

Not much to say for this week- but here's some tidbits or... whatever.

++ Baby is moving around a lot, but still really faintly. I can only really feel it when I'm laying down to go to sleep or right after I wake up. But I'm definitely feeling little flip flops and jabs and bubbles on a more regular basis and that has been so lovely and reassuring.

++ I don't really have any specific cravings but rather crave ALL THE THINGS. I want all the food, all the time. Yesterday Andrew and I went to a BYU football game and in that four hour period I ate nachos, a soft pretzel, and a personal pizza. And after the game we went to Cafe Rio where I ingested a ton of nachos. I was still hungry when I went to bed that night. I am ravenous. Maybe I'll finally put on some of that weight I'm supposed to have gained.

++ I choke on my saliva at least once a day, if not more. This seems really random, but I read that your body produces more saliva when you're pregnant (no idea why, I'm gonna assume hormones because that's the answer to everything pregnancy related). All I know is that I am consistently inhaling and then dying. Oh and I drool all the time too. It's real cute, guys.

++ Most days I still feel like I'm just kinda chunky, but a cuter, rounder chunky. But I still don't feel like I have really "popped" yet. I just know that any day now I'm going to wake up and have a crazy belly all the sudden. And that will be nice because hopefully then people won't just think I'm a chunky girl letting it all hang out.

++ My pinterest is in baby boy overload right now. So many adorable clothes that I can't justify buying because he'll only be able to wear them for, what, a week? A month? But I can still dream. Oh yes indeed.


(But really, how can you resist all the cuteness? I will have a least one cardigan onesie and I will have a baby bowtie collection.)

Next big appointment is a week from tomorrow! 20 week anatomy scan wooooo. Let's hope we have the cutest, healthiest baby on the planet, okay? Okay.
