Week 24 & 25 (I'm a slacker)

I completely forgot to do my update last week. Work has been busy and I've just been tired! So we'll do 24 & 25 together!
How far along? 24 weeks / 25 weeks
How big is the peanut? Papaya / Eggplant
Total weight gain/loss? 170lbs / 171lbs. I'd be very happy if I stopped gaining now, but I know that won't happen. I'm going to stop looking at the scale soon 
Maternity clothes? Yep, maybe 1 or 2 non-maternity pants
Sleep? last week & this week I have been sleeping horribly. My hips are killing me and I have to move every 30-60 minutes, and when you are this big, you can't move w/o waking up
Best moment this week? Joe finally felt her move! I was laying in the bedroom and on my left side, she was kicking something fierce. He jumped a little when he felt her move, he thought I just pushed my stomach out. He felt 2 kicks and the look on his face was priceless. He has been emailing baby (like the Google commercial) and I'm sure he emailed her this
Symptoms? A little icky 1st trimester blah feelings a few days last week
Food cravings? Everything (see weight gain above)
Food aversions? Nothing (see weight gain above)
Gender? Baby girl!
Labor signs? Nope! Although I do think I've had some braxton hicks but not enough for me to stop and really think much of it
Belly button in or out? Flat but less out than last week. The top part is the only "out" part
Movement? Lots! Kicks, punches, flips. You name it, she does it about 4 times a day. I love it! At first it felt very weird, still does sometimes. It still takes my breath away every time. My mother-in-law saw my belly move last night when we were over there
Wedding rings on or off? On but getting tight
What I miss? Sleep, I guess I better get use to not getting any for awhile
What I'm looking forward to? We have an ultrasound this Thursday and then my gluclose test :-( but then we are going out for dinner, sushi! I hate fish so I'll be having tempura seafood
Milestones? We reached V-Day (24 weeks)! If baby was born now (no ideas baby!) the doctors would do everything to make her survive. With today being Labor Day, I want NO SIGNS of LABOR!
Bump? And both are with makeup! What a treat. Week 24 is before we went to a family wedding and week 25 is when we were going to Taste of Melrose, we got baby girl a onesie she'll be wearing there next year

24 Weeks
 

25 Weeks
