How far along?
24 weeks today.
Total weight gain?
15 pounds. Wowsers. The doctor measured the height of my uterus today & said it was measuring juuust over 23 weeks. My blood pressure was 100/57 and my weight was up 4.8 pounds since my 20 week visit.

Maternity Clothes
I wear more maternity shirts now. I have yet to wear my maternity pants since the rubberband trick still works. I also wear workout clothes a lot because I don't have much to dress up for, and let's be honest - they are cozy!

Sleep
I sleep fine at night because I've been sooo tired. I'm starting to notice my hips are more uncomfortable though. This means I'll need to start sleeping with a pillow between my legs soon. Ugh. Since 21 weeks along, I no longer sleep on my stomach. Baby girl would start moving a lot so I've opted to no longer squish our child. I'm sure she is glad about that. And yes, I have to use the bathroom at least once every night.

Movement
Some days more than others, I feel her move a lot. Thankfully, I feel her move every day.

Food cravings and aversions
Keep the bacon away, please. Can't stand it. Same with pork. I will gladly eat some ice cream or a milkshake though ☺

Exercise
The past two weeks I've only exercised 4 times since I was exhausted from watching a 6, 4, 2, & 1 year old along with a 3 month old for eight and a half hours each weekday. I'm hoping to return to my 3 mile runs 3 days a week and my pregnancy dvd workouts 3 days a week. I would like to keep baby and myself healthy.

Stretch Marks
None. Let's keep it that way.
Sex of the baby
Girl! We popped balloons and pink confetti came out! We are excited. Austin knows that his baby sister is in my tummy now too. Next, we hope he will say 'baby'.
