Hey ladies! I miss the GTKY polls we used to do around the First Trimester. I thought it would be fun to do a weekly update poll. I just snagged one I've seen on a lot of blogs. It doesn't have to be Wednesdays, I just happened to think of this today.

If I had to wear my work pants..I would probably be in trouble! Shirts for the most part fit...except some are a bit too short now Sleep: I'm a side-sleeper to begin with, so that is fine with me. I have to get up 1-2 times to pee...but other than that I can't complain. Though, LO Has woken me up a couple of times with a swift kick...scared the crap out of me! Best moment this week: Last night LO was having a total dance party in my belly for like 2 minutes straight - I woke DH up and he got to see and feel it...it was amazing!!!! Team Blue/Pink/Green: Green Cravings? for the past 5 days I have had little to no appetite...and am always nauseous.
