My back hurts.

Sorry, that's all I could come up with for a title as I sit in my uncomfortable work chair, longing for my heating pad...

How far along?: 25 weeks, 0 days
Total weight gain/loss: +1 this week, +8 overall.
How big is baby?: A pound and a half and 13 inches from head to heel. Get out a yard stick and take a look at what 13 in. looks like. Holy cow!
Maternity clothes?: Just about full time.
Sleep: We are not friends anymore.
Movement: Might we have a little soccer player in there? (Coincidentally, my uterus is now the size of a soccer ball.) I'm actually thinking a rugby player like his uncle, as he loves to forcefully ram into my belly.
Labor signs: Ditto last week.
Food cravings: Oreos, though not the donut-fried ones we had in Frankenmuth. Too awkward.
Gender: Team Green.
Belly button in or out?: Still in.
What I miss: Feeling well-rested.
What I am looking forward to: It's birthday season in the Vonderhaar family. Happy to know Baby Reeder and his new cousin will be extending birthday season all the way into Christmas season from now on! Hooray!
Best moment this week: A tie between the big surprise at the lake and going to the World's Largest Christmas Store. After all, Christmastime = baby time :)
Weekly Wisdom: Don't leave home without the heating pad.
Milestones: Hmmm. Belly looks much bigger to me this week, but that's not really a milestone. I survived road trip #3 of 4 of the pregnancy- does that count? Speaking of road trips, my stomach now looks like a road map - the blue and purple veins are out of control. Totally fascinates me. Boy am I random today.
