TUESDAY NIGHT DATE AND 16 WEEK UPDATE

Kenny and I had a Tuesday night date last night and it was so fun and nice to get out and enjoy this cooler weather. The Memphis Redbirds are in the playoffs (really good) and have to play the entire series here in Memphis. The regular sweltering HOT baseball season is normally over by now so I couldn't resist a little summer pastime in much more tolerable conditions. There weren't a whole lot of people there so we just grabbed some BBQ nachos and moved around in different parts of the stadium enjoying the game. Is it bad that I kind of want to go again tonight. Ha! We had fun!

The only problem was when I was getting ready to go. Getting dressed is starting to get difficult. Not only am I totally in between my normal comfy clothes and maternity clothes(which I haven't bought yet), I along with everyone else are also in between seasons. Too warm to wear a cozy sweater but to cool for a dress. Arrrggg! Might need to get my ever growing hiney to the mall STAT!

Anyway here is my weekly update! I am officially 4 months pregnant which freaked Kenny out when I pointed it out. With the holidays Baby Lacey is going to be here before we know it.

How far along? 16 weeks 3 Days My What To Expect iPhone app (yep they have an app for that) says the baby is a size of a turnip this week.

Total weight gain/loss? Alright alright I gained a pound. The doctor was right. Le sigh.

Maternity clothes? As I said above. It is definitely time to start purchasing some maternity clothes. Funny how quickly things can change in a week.

Stretch marks? None. Hoping it stays that way but I did put some moisturizer on my tummy this morning because it felt all tight and stretchy.

Sleep? Getting to be great. I think the problem was that I had all of a sudden become an extremely light sleeper so once something woke me up I was up and I couldn't get back to sleep. I solved this problem very simply. Ear plugs. Worked like a charm! I am now sleeping like a rock!

Best moment last week? Getting to relax with Kenny all weekend and reaching the 4 month mark.

Movement? Not sure. Sometimes I wonder if I am feeling the baby or if it is stomach gurgles. I am becoming more convinced that I think it is baby at least some of the time. But then it is still early for me to be feeling things so I talk myself out of believing that. Ha!

Food cravings? Pickles, Spicy Stuff, Pepper Jack Cheese, Sno Cones

Gender? Prediction: Still 100% convinced its a boy.

Labor signs? No. I wouldn't know if I was. Ha!

Belly button in/out? In.

What I miss: Being able to get dressed without trying on my entire closet to find something that fits.

What I am looking forward to: 11 days until we find out what Baby Lacey is! Kenny and I are pretty close to having picked the official names for both so yay! Also I will be making our first nursery/baby purchases this week. I am planning on buying the crib and the mattress this week and a couple other small things! Ready to have some of that stuff in the house to make it more real feeling.

And something that I am looking forward to unbaby related.....

FALL TELEVISION!! 90210 and Survivor started this week. Next week we get Amazing Race, Dancing With the Stars and of course GLEE!!! I am sure I am forgetting a slew of others but these are what's on my radar for now!
