how far along? 15 weeks
development: this week is a citrus sweetie... our orange is about 4" long and weighs 2.5 ounces. joints and limbs can all move now, and our legs outmeasure our arms. ears are properly positioned on the sides of the head (from the neck) and eyes are migrating to the front of the face from the side of the head.

maternity clothes? not yet, *see below :) lots of leggings, though and excited to start wearing my good old riding boots again since the weather's changing.
sleep? unlike last week, i haven't been pre-sleeping as much and have actually had a bit more energy in the evenings. i've been sleeping decently through the night, sometimes still getting up once, and have started using my boppy body pillow (thanks, rachell!)
stretch marks? nope
best moments this week: evening walks (the first day of fall!) - i wish this weather would stick around longer in the mid 70's • spending way too long perusing websites for ideas and things we need to register for and/or buy, otherwise known as online window shopping • pregnancy massage!
miss anything? no
movement: although i haven't felt any movement yet, the little one is supposedly squirming a ton!
food cravings: nothing crazy out of the ordinary
anything making you queasy or sick? the banana i had this morning was a little less than enjoyable (slightly grossed out by the taste) but i'm pretty picky about bananas anyways - they can't be too ripe
gender: still waiting - maybe up to another month till we find out
pregnancy symptoms: some slight back pain, mostly in the evenings or after being active with zumba
have you started to show yet? yes, but i guess that's my perception - anthony says yes. it may all be relative. i definitely have a belly, but someone who doesn't know me may not notice.
wedding rings, on or off? on
happy or moody most of the time? happy! although, i have been a little more opinionated in stating things lately, but i don't think that makes me moody, right? ;)
looking forward to: what i'm gonna find on saturday at the big consignment sale in lancaster, and a few longer range things like finding out the gender of our babe, fall happenings like the local pumpkin fest and our 5 yr. anniversary next month
notes from dad: knock, knock. who's there? orange. orange who? orange you glad you're not still the size of a lemon?
*so i made my first trip into motherhood maternity this past weekend... i must have looked like i was totally misplaced when i walked in, because the sweet lady working the store immediately asked if i needed help like she was concerned for me. umm yes, i need help, thank you. i walked out spending a little more money than i planned on (or realized) but picked up a few really cute, stylish pieces that i think i'll get a lot of wear out of.
not too much more happening, which i guess is a good thing at this point.
173 days to go.
