HBD Hubs and 11 week "bumpdate"

Happy birthday to the best husband in the world! I know that 30 will be the BEST year yet! You really are the icing on my cake, the song in my heart, the light of my life and the peanut butter to my jelly. You make me the happiest wife in the world and I hope your special day was amazing.

HAPPY 30th BIRTHDAY HOTT STUFF!

We had a blast celebrating Hub's birthday this past weekend. My parents and I threw a "Frank Sinatra" themed cocktail party with all of Hub's family and friends. The night was a success! Hubs sure looked like he was enjoying himself along with everyone else! Below are a few shots from the night.

Now on to the "bumpdate"!

How far along?  11 weeks

Baby Size: Moving throughout the produce department- made it to the size of a plum!
Total weight gain/loss: I've had  a few gains and losses. Right now I'm -.5 from my "starting weight"

Maternity clothes? Still fitting in all my normal clothes- getting a tiny bit snug. ;) You can see the "bump" (aka serious bloat) in my dress from the party Saturday. Some days I "show" more than others.
Stretch marks? No way!! Planning on buying special cream this week to prevent that mess.
Sleep: Sleeping in is a thing of the past. Haven't slept past 6 am in weeks. I have been able to fall back asleep after an hour or so on the weekends.
Best moment this week:  Hub's birthday party! Seeing family and friends is always amazing, but it was nice to share in our joy with the people we love the most. My Sis in law gave me two books- Whinnie the Pooh and Goodnight Moon that our nieces read as babies and are now being passed down to baby bean. <3 Made my heart melt.  

Have you told family and friends: YES! Finally went public! So happy everyone knows now!
Miss Anything? Miss feeling "normal" a little bit this week. I have had days where I am back to myself but every few days (aka today) I get the "icks" again.

Movement:  Nothing yet! Can't wait! 
Food cravings:  Nothing in particular. I do crave "pastine" like my Mom-mom used to make it whenever I'm nauseous... tiny pasta stars,milk, salt and butter- yum! Good for what ales ya.  

Anything making you queasy or sick: It's getting better...I was able to be in the same room as shrimp at the party on Saturday! First time since becoming preggo! Eating more veggies as of last week, which is awesome.

Have you started to show yet: I think there's a little something showing. I think it's a combo of smallllllll bump and bloat.

Gender prediction: I honestly have NO idea! My Dad is swearing it’s a GIRL! My Mama in law and sis in law say it's a boy! Dad and Ma in law made a bet this weekend- whoever loses takes the other to dinner!
Labor Signs: No way!
Belly Button in or out? Inny 

Wedding rings on or off? On

Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy and excited!
Looking forward to: seeing baby bean again on Friday at our last "follow up" sonogram appointment. Last check to ensure babies "a" and "c" are absorbing. Also looking forward to a nice relaxing week at Mom and Dad's starting Friday! Can't wait to wear my comfy clothes, cuddle up and finish this master's thesis! Three more weeks and I'm home free! Can't wait to defend my thesis and enjoy the holidays!

Have a great week!!!
