Pregnancy: “You Cantaloupe” “Watch me!” (A week late)

(If we could all just ignore the fact that it looks like my face was hit with a stinging-curse and has been turned all puffy, that would be great….really, really great).  

How far along? 24 weeks
Total weight gain/loss: +15 lbs
Maternity clothes: I need more.
Stretch marks: The ones I already had have gotten more pronounced.
Sleep: It really varies. Some nights, I feel like I slept really well, and other nights feel like I haven’t slept at all. 
Best Moment this week: Throwing my sister-in-law’s baby shower on Saturday. It was really fun and made me even more excited for mine!! Also, my best friend got married—she eloped! (Technically that’d be part of next week since she got married on Monday, but next week’s post doesn’t have the word “cantaloupe” in it, so there.)
Miss anything: Jake. A lot. Like, a lot a lot.
Movement: Oh yes. She’s a little dancer. 
Food Cravings: I’m back in see-food eater mode. It’s actually terrible. 
Anything making you queasy or sick? Nothing specific. 
Labor signs: Nope.
Belly button in or out? In.
Wedding rings on or off? Still on. 
Happy or Moody most of the time: I’m back in more-or-less happy mode. 
Looking forward to: Thursday (Aug. 21): I have my next doctor’s appointment, and we always listen to Julia’s heartbeat, AND Jake comes home!
