To be perfectly honest, I'm getting a little bored of these weekly posts. Not a whole lot is changing (aside from me getting bigger), so I feel like everything is a little boring. Guess that explains why I've skipped that past couple of weeks. But, I guess I'll be glad I did it later on down the road, so here goes:
How I'm feeling: Pretty good, although definitely getting bigger, and carrying Riley around can take a toll on my back at times. But really, all things considered, I feel great!
Weight gain this week: I have been avoiding the scale... I think I gained a couple pounds this week, although I've been horrible at really keeping track. Sooo I have no idea.
Total weight gain: 17 pounds? Not sure.
New this week: I had like an hour of slight heartburn one day, does that count? Movement has been getting stronger and stronger, and baby kicks like craaaaazy every single night. He kicked Riley for the first time while she was laying in bed with me, and she definitely felt it! Also, I am now in my 3rd trimester!!!
Best part of the week: We decided we are going to ship a bunch of stuff back with us to New Zealand, which means I can shop for more baby stuff and ship it back to New Zealand! Also, we bought a double stroller!! We didn't get the one I REALLY wanted, but decided on my second choice, the Baby Jogger City Mini Double- looks like this:

While definitely not my first choice of color, we bought it second hand and saved quite a bit of money, so it was a deal, and it's basically in like-new condition. We can put a car seat adapter on one side for the newborn, and Riley can hang out on the other! Hooray!
What baby is up to: He's almost 2 pounds (about the size of a cauliflower), about 14.5 inches long. He's sleeping and waking at regular intervals, opening and closing eyes, and possibly sucking on his fingers.
Cravings: Salads. Lots of salads.
Aversions: Chicken mostly, but luckily no aversion to Thanksgiving turkey!
Sorry, no belly picture, I feel like I needed to just post this before I skipped yet another week!
