17 weeks! Oh by the way...

We are so excited to be expecting baby #2 in December! So far, everything is going great. Xander has no idea, but we have mentioned it to him. Yesterday he told me, "Xander have baby in belly, too." Cute cute cute. How far along? 17 weeks 2 days Total weight gain/loss: 4 pounds Sleep: Very good Best moment this week: Hearing baby's heartbeat on Wednesday. Sounds great! I also felt the first kick from the outside last night! Movement: Yes, I feeling it almost every day now. Food cravings: Sweet things! This is totally different from last time, when I hardly ever wanted sweets. Food aversions: Nothing specific, but every so often, I have a little freak out because I can't find anything I want to eat in this house. Gender: Don't know Labor Signs: None at all Belly Button in or out? Very in What I miss: I can't think of anything at the moment. I'm happy. What I am looking forward to: Getting our next peek at this baby! July 31st! Milestones: Since this is my first of these little surveys, I'm going to recap the whole thing so far. April 5th (3 weeks 4 days or maybe 2 days) -- Two lines! Yes!! 8 weeks -- first ultrasound. Our tiny blob of a baby measured right on track with a good strong heartbeat. 9 weeks -- first midwife appointment. I got to hear the heartbeat for the first time, and it was fast. 15 weeks 3 days -- first real good kick. J and I were watching the season finale of Once Upon a Time. 17 weeks 1 day -- first kick felt from the outside. Babies always get excited when mama stops rocking (walking around), and last night was no different. As I settled down in bed, I felt some fluttering around, so I put my hand down, and finally felt some big strong kicks!
