20 Week Bumpdate

How far along? 20 weeks! I can't believe how fast this pregnancy is going. 
Baby is the size of a: banana, about 10 inches since baby is measured from crown to heel now and approximately 10 ounces. 
Total weight gain: Didn't weigh myself again this week, really hasn't been a priority for me. 
Stretch marks? No new ones.
Maternity clothes? Yes and wearing my belly bands to make my non maternity shorts last longer. 
Sleep: Still waking up once or twice a night to go pee and some nights I just can't get comfortable and toss and turn a lot. 
Best moment this week: Chris definitely felt Logan move this week! He thought he felt him while we were in Sedona, but there was no denying it this week. 
Miss anything? Beer. 
Food cravings: Nothing.
Anything making you queasy or sick? Nope. 
Gender: BOY!!
Labor signs: Hopefully not for a very long time! 
Symptoms: I can't think of anything new, Logan is a vey active boy and is constantly moving around in there.
Belly button in or out?  In, but I think it'll pop this pregnancy. 
Wedding rings on or off: On.
Happy or moody most of the time: Happy
Looking forward to: Our anatomy scan in a few weeks to see baby Logan again and I have another prenatal appointment on the 28th. 

We set December 8th for maternity pictures and decided to go with a different photographer from who did Caleb's maternity and newborn. We're slowly getting Caleb's new room together with moulding and new baseboards so we can keep the nursery as Logan's room.  I don't want Logan to have a room facing the street, so it just makes sense to move Caleb.  We're contemplating waiting to buy Logan's furniture until tax time since he'll be in our room for several months after he's born and it's not a necessity right away.
