Friday
Today after work I met my friend Sokhim at the mall because first we haven't seen each other since the summer and second I wanted to look for a maternity winter jacket (I didn't want to have to struggle to get into my coat).
Saturday
In the morning I decided to get some chores done and make banana muffins. I made 3 batches. It took a while to get them all baked but I was able to finish with enough time to get ready for the afternoon events.
This afternoon Matt left to go to Edmonton to hold youth service there tonight while I stayed home since there was a local youth service and coral concert practice here. The practice started at 3:30pm at the church but we didn't start singing until closer to 4pm since we waited on a few others to arrive. After that at 6pm we had youth service and Rachel had provided the meal/snack afterwards. It was also the first time in a long time that no one needed me to pick them up or give them a ride home for a youth service!
Sunday
Today we had service in the morning and right after I helped my parents take down some of the Thanksgiving decorations. I didn't end up staying too long because I had to go and run a few errands. As it was getting later and I was home again I called Matt to see where he was and he was still about an hour and a half from home. I ended up taking a nap on the couch and when I woke up Matt was home, it was the fastest hour and a half ever!

Bumpdate
How far along? 18weeks
How big is baby? The baby is about 6 inches long from crown to rump and weighs about 7ounces.
Gender? too early to know, but Matt is wanting it to be a surprise so we may not be finding out
Total Weight Gain? Still at about 7 lbs just like last week.
Maternity Clothes? yes I have maternity pants and skirts, its a lot easier sitting with out having your pants dig in to you. And still regular shirts, but I am finding that some of them are almost too short but I still have long enough ones.
Symptoms? I have been sneezing a lot this week, not sure what that is about.
Food Cravings? I haven't been craving anything in particular, its mostly if I smell something good then I want it but that doesn't mean I have to eat it.
Food Aversions? There is nothing that has been unappealing.
What I miss? Well I was missing eating sushi because I went to an open house thing on Tuesday and most of the stuff they had was sushi.
Sleep? Sunday night was not a good night, I fell asleep fine but I started waking up at about 12:30am and was tossing and turning and had a headache. But then I caught up on my sleep Monday after work I climbed into bed and woke up Tuesday morning, so about 11 hours. (This isn't unusual though for me I have slept like this even before I was pregnant if i felt like I needed extra sleep)
Movement? Can't feel any movement yet, probably not until 20 weeks, they said my placenta is at the front so that kind of hides the "early" movement.
Stretch marks? None yet. I have been putting lotion on before I go to bed. I am the type of person where I never put lotion on my body except for my legs sometimes. So this putting lotion on thing is hard for me to get used to.
Belly button? Still seems normal
Milestones? Making it to 18 weeks
Best moment of the week? Having patients at work starting to notice my belly.
What I am looking forward to? Our next ultrasound appointment.
Pregnancy moments with Matt: On Tuesday night Matt was getting the computer ready for me to look at something and he wouldn't let me peek. So when it was ready he let me look and he showed me all the cribs and changes tables he was looking/researching on Monday night while I slept. It was really cute!

Weekend Recap
Friday
Today after work I was pretty busy, first I went to motherhood maternity because I really wanted to get some maternity skinny jeans to wear with boots. Not only did I find skinny jeans but I also found another everyday pair of jeans just so I wouldn't have to figure out my days to be able to wash my one pair of maternity jeans that I had boughten before. Then I went to Costco and the Sobey's to pick up food for tomorrow's meeting at the church.
Saturday
Today we had our youth leaders meeting at the church, which I think it went really well. Unfortunately we were missing a couple of people but definitely glad that those who came did. I was in charge of the food which I have become fairly used too since Matt has been a youth leader. This really took up our whole day because after the meeting we all went out to Boston Pizza for dinner.
Sunday
Today was service and most of the youth leaders were able to stay in the city for service and didn't have to be in their own congregations in the other cities. After service though Matt was so tired and had such a bad headache that as soon as we got home he went for a nap because later this evening we were invited to the home of friends of ours. I woke Matt up with extra time before we had to go and he still wasn't feeling all the best but he still got ready and we were able to go together. Dinner was really great! Also we were given somethings for our baby that her son is too old for. Here are some of the items.
Now we have to bring them over to my parent's house because we have no room for them at our house since our basement still has a big trench in the floor (you'll see the pictures on wednesday).
