Week 24

This is a great picture! We have a guest appearance this week, the wonderful Aunt Nazli the elf!  We were gift exchanging and she wanted a picture with Baby McD and she had the cutest little Santa hat! I had to share :)
 
How far along: 24 weeks complete! Almost in the third trimester... Holy Crap!

How big is the baby: my app says the Baby McD is about 13 inches long and 1.5lbs. 
 
Total weight gain: I am actually pleasantly surprised, from last month to this month I didn't gain any weight. Which was probably a good thing since I got yelled at last month for not "watching my carbs." HA! Does she not know I'm Itailan?!
 
Stretch Marks: still holding strong at no stretch marks! 
 
Best moment of the week: i love Christmas! The best part is seeing friends and family open up their gifts with such joy and excitement! 
 
Worst moment of the week: well, I am still wearing my regular clothes, they are starting to get a little tight. A sad moment was the belly sticking out from below one of shirts... #bigbellyproblems
 
Symptoms: random spurts of being uncomfortable. My ribs are sore and apparently that's from my organs shifting up... That's sounds attractive doesn't it?? And some sore muscles in my back, but I'm getting a massage this weekend with my momma so hopefully that will help.
 
Movement: still random little movements from time to time. There's only been a couple big shifts. 

Have you started to show?: does my worst moment of the week answer that? The belly is getting so big, it's hanging out and saying "hi" to all! Thank goodness for the wonderful belly band to cover all that good stuff up!
 
Gender: Team BowTie
 
Labor Signs: Nope

Belly Button In or Out: In

Wedding Rings On or Off: on

What I’m looking forward to: 
 
What I miss the most: cold cuts! We had a small Christmas party at work last week and they spent a lot of money on party platters. It was cold cut subs.. Boo I was looking forward to a catered lunch, but I just had my left over spaghetti instead.

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!!

Love Catherine, JJ and Baby McD
