How far along: 28 weeks
Size of baby: Chinese Cabbage (2 1/4 pounds)
Movement: He is definitely a night mover. Owen likes to sleep most of the morning off and then wakes up very active in the evenings.
Sleep: It's getting a lot harder to get comfortable.
Cravings: Nothing out of the ordinary. Since the holidays are over, I'm determined to eat even healthier and reduce the amount of sweets I eat. (Besides my baby shower days :)
Queasy or sick: Nope.
Symptoms: I have a lot of pressure in my lower abdomen when I exercise, but other than that I'm good.
Maternity Clothes: Yes, the dress I'm wearing above is from Rosie Pope Maternity in NYC. I loved getting to visit her store during our NYC trip last month. She has her own show on Bravo called "Pregnant in Heels."
Belly Button In or Out? Half innie/half outie. :)
Wedding Ring On or Off? On
Miss Anything? My motivation.
High of the week: Eric and I had a great weekend at home. We had friends over Friday night and Saturday night was New Year's Eve. We had a great time with friends at Larry's party. I was surprised that I stayed up til almost 2 am!

Low of the week: Taking down Christmas decorations is pretty depressing. My house looks so bare now.
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy.
Gender: BOY!
Looking Forward to: My baby showers this month! And I finally ordered Owen's crib, and it should be here any day now. I can't wait to put it together and see it in the nursery. Wednesday is my gestational diabetes test, and I'm a little nervous! I've heard that the orange drink doesn't taste as bad as everyone says, so that's good. Praying I don't have GD!
Eric and I had a great Christmas in Illinois-our last one as a family of 2! I'm so excited that we'll have a 9 month old crawling around next Christmas. It's so hard to believe! Here are a few pics from the Christmas weekend:

| Owen got a BOB jogging stroller for Christmas. Mommy is already looking forward to losing the baby weight w/ this gift. |
