Sweet Baby D at 6 weeks

Baby bump status:  Not much to see.  Fairly flat in the mornings; after eating, it looks like I've chowed down at a buffet.

12 weeks

Baby is the size of:  A lime
Total weight gain:  1.4 lbs.
Days until due date:  196  
New or unusual this week:  I'm hungry all the time!  Within an hour of eating, I'm starving.  Also, one night I had to get up to pee 3 times - sheesh.
Symptoms:  So. Very. Tired.  And hungry.  Getting up to pee usually once per night.  Bloated/gassy.  Luckily, I haven't had any morning sickness or nausea at all.
Cravings:  This was the result of a recent grocery store run: 

So, yeah, juice and fruit.  One day I was really craving white cake which is not something I usually enjoy.  Also, whenever someone mentions something savory (French fries, chicken tenders, ice cream, cake), my mouth waters and I want some.  Right then. 
What I miss:  Aerobics, Zumba, and being able to shop or walk for an extended period of time without a backache.  And being able to stay awake all day without being completely exhausted.
Looking forward to:  Having my baby bump grow, needing maternity clothes, seeing baby on ultrasound again, decorating the nursery, and meeting baby!  And we really want to know the gender.  This week - hearing baby's heartbeat and (hopefully) passing my early glucose test at our appointment tomorrow, ordering the crib bedding, and having our new master bedroom furniture delivered. 
This week's purchases:  (excuse the big gap, I'm still trying to figure out the formatting here)

Baby's first gift:  Came a couple of weeks ago courtesy of Auntie M (aka Misty)

Bama outfit, Christmas sleeper, Christmas onesie

Previous purchases:

I couldn't help myself; had to check out after-Christmas sales on unisex items.   :-)

Himal was complaining that no one would buy Baby D any Gator gear, so I sucked it up and ordered this.  Gag.

I put it together all by myself!

This is Gidget in my old high chair.  My dad is going to refinish it for baby.
