Bump Day Baby #2 - Week 23

• Baby is the size of a grapefruit
• Baby's face is fully formed, except all the fat
• Had a doctors appointment yesterday...155 heart rate and measuring right on schedule
• Total weight gain = 11 lbs
• Mother nature should make up her mind on if it should be spring or winter still...I would like to break out my maternity dresses and not worry about pants and boots anymore.
• Still no stretch marks
• I do have varicose veins that are starting to show up in my legs...,not pretty.
• We won't know gender until July...and I have no clue. Going to prepare a little bit (buy a few items) if it's a girl and we have everything if it's a boy.
• We officially decided that Turner will move to the downstairs room around his 2nd birthday. We will keep in his crib though. I have heard horror stories about going to a big bed too early. Turner currently sleeps AWESOME at night, goes to bed at 7:30 without problems and sleeps soundly all night. I do not want to mess with this at all so we plan to keep him in the crib for as long as we can. He also has never tried to climb out of crib...so we find no reason to change anything.
• Bought a new baby monitor that was 50% off. We currently have the Angel Care Monitor for Turner...and love it. We got the same one except with video now. We plan to keep using Turner with him down in his room so we can hear if he needs anything.
• I also bought a fun cubby to hang on wall in new nursery. I love purchasing things here and there for the new nursery. I can't wait to put it all together.
• Still loving anything carb related. Forcing myself to each veggies to get some nutrition.
• 2 weeks left of tax season...thank gosh!

A little comparison of 23 weeks with Turner and 23 weeks with this pregnancy. I happened to wear the same dress...so I thought a fun comparison shot was in order.

At first I thought I looked the same...but after examining it closer, I realized by belly sits lower this time around and sticks straight out more vs more rounded with Turner. I feel the same though...
