Week 23/24

How far along?   23 weeks .... and 24 weeks. Sorry, trying to play catch-up because things got busy over the holiday and call weekend.
Total weight gain:  Well, the official weight gain at the doctor is 11 lbs.  I knew that damn scale was off at the gym!!!  LOL! 
Have you started to show?  Yes.
Am feeling:  Good - the back pain comes and goes.  I've been able to get back to running (at least a day or two a week if I mix it in with the elliptical), which makes me happy :)
Best moment this week: Ordering all of our nursery furniture and bedding!  I can't wait for it all to come!  We also had our first fire of the year and watched ELF (my fav!).  Now, if only this preggo could stay awake through a movie, I would enjoy it a lot more!!  Also, had our Dr. appointment this week and so blessed that all is progressing well.  His healthy heart is beating at 156 bpm. 
Miss anything? Clear winner here - alcohol.  I've been craving champagne for some strange reason.  It just sounds so good right now!  Probably because I can't have it!
Food cravings:  Sweet and salty - pretzels and chocolate are such an amazing combo!
Maternity clothes:  Living in leggings these days.  They are so comfortable!  I've had to transition to some big-belly friendly pants also for working out. 
Sleep:  Sleeping well, just difficult to move around once I'm down.
Gender: Boy
Looking forward to: The HOLIDAYS!!!  This is my favorite time of year - I've been listening to Christmas music since mid October.  At least now it's socially acceptable.  I can't wait to pick out our tree and decorate it with the new ornaments I bought this year! Bring on the movies -- Home Alone, Christmas Vacation and Elf will be on rotation from now until December 25th.
