23 week chalkboard

Hi sweet little one,
I know Christmas is still about a month away, but I just couldn't help it...I'm so excited!

How far along: 23 weeks
Gender: Little baby girl <3
Maternity clothes: Yes. Remember last week how I wrote that I was buying a ton of clothes online at random hours of the night because I can't sleep? This red shirt is one of the things I bought. And I now want it in gray, purple, and blue. Hmmm...
Best moment this week: Two-way tie between leaving work on Tuesday and not having to come back until Monday (helloooo Fall break!), and starting to paint baby sister's nursery. It's going to be just g.o.r.g.e.o.u.s!
Worst moment this week: Another two-way tie between watching Pemberley battle yet another cold and realizing on Sunday that I did, in fact, have to go back to work on Monday. Is it Christmas yet? :(
Miss anything: Oh Lordy how I miss a good night's sleep. And a good beer. And rum in my egg nog. And being able to walk around without accidentally bumping into things because I haven't quite realized how big my belly is getting lately.
Movements: Yes! 100% in love with them.
Cravings: Crushed ice. I could literally eat it for every meal. I walk around with a spoon in my water cup all day long, crunching away. ((Just ask my students who constantly ask me to repeat myself because I try to give directions with a mouthful of ice - haha!))
Queasy or sick: Kind of have a sore throat, but probably got that from Pemberley's last cold so...not pregnancy related, but it still sucks.
Looking forward to: Announcing baby sister's name very soon!

That's all for this week, little girl. I am going to curl up in bed with some ice and watch reruns of Gossip Girl because that's how we roll lately. I love you so much!
