How far along? 26 weeks, 5 days
Total weight gain/loss: +13lbs at my 25 week appointment. I asked the Dr. if I was measuring big or small (because someone asked me and I had no idea!) and she said I'm measuring a little big but that she only worries if you're measuring too small. Go big or go home, I guess. :)Maternity clothes? Yes!
Stretch marks? No!
Sleep: Well I got a nasty cold just in time for Christmas so sleep has been pretty miserable and uncomfortable lately. (And Brandon informed me I make little random squeaky noises like a baby when I am sleeping lol) Besides that, I do have to get up at least once a night now to visit the bathroom.
Best moment this week: It's been two weeks! I have a list...

-Christmas Eve and Christmas...even though I felt like death, we are so blessed to be able to have family to spend time with, gifts to exchange, and the birth of our Savior to celebrate!
Zoey got really into ripping open her gifts this year!
A NEW BALL!
-Ultrasound #2...The tech was able to get all of the measurements she needed and the doctor said everything looked normal. Baby was breech (but has definitely been rolling all over since then) and still camera shy. Good thing we really do want to be surprised!
-Brandon's brother Chris got married to Laura the day after Christmas. It was a beautiful, small ceremony. And that means.....I finally have a sister!
-Last night baby was "high fiving" Brandon. It was adorable. :)
-I am on Christmas. Break. Enough said.
Have you told family and friends: Yes!
Miss anything yet? Let's just say there are a lot of little things about pregnancy I was unaware of that I now am. Not just this week, but the whole span of the pregnancy thus far.
Movement: lots of movement, kicks, and punches. I am never sure where baby is positioned (I have no idea how some women can tell), but baby likes to have dance parties in there!
Food cravings: I have come to the conclusion that Culver's shakes are my "craving" since I have to drive thru at least once a week for a peanut butter chocolate shake.
Anything making you queasy or sick? I'm just plain sick with a cold and nasty cough :(
Have you started to show yet: Yes, and I have started to experience "preganancy chivalry" where strangers seem to go out of there way to be nicer to me. :)
Gender prediction: I HAVE NO IDEA! I go back and forth between boy and girl thoughts almost hourly. The consensus at work is girl and family thinks boy.
Labor signs: No thank goodness! I'm not even really sure if I've felt those Braxton Hicks contractions yet. But...hello third trimester next week. Eeek!
Belly button in or out? Flat, strange, and I try not to think about it ;)
Wedding rings on or off? On BUT my fingers get very swollen when we go for long walks. I couldn't get my ring off one night! Luckily that's the only time they get that swollen. The only other time they get a little swollen is sitting in church....I have no idea why there and nowhere else!
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy!
Looking forward to: Enjoying the rest of Christmas Break!

Can't see those toes anymore! (Also...run into things with my belly now...very classy)
Hoping you all had a Merry Christmas!
