24 Week Picture and Poll

This is being posted a day late even though it was just about ready to go last night except we had the computer off in case we lost power (and was unable to download the pictures). But it's bonus picture week! Although it was a long and snowy day, so the pictures aren't that great. Last time I was late with the picture, but there was a bonus (Christmas) picture then as well.

How far along? 24 Weeks
Total weight gain/loss: Up to 24 pounds
Maternity clothes? Yes
Stretch Marks? Still nothing new, and fingers are crossed that doesn't change
Sleep: Still pretty tired, doesn't seem like that is going to change.
Best moment this week: Seeing the baby
Movement: Yes, and Peter even got to feel it today.
Food cravings: Hot chocolate, but that might have to do with the cold weather.
Gender: Poll is up, don't forget to vote on the right (if you are reading this by email or reader, you need to click through to the blog).
Labor Signs: Nope
Belly Button in or out? It pops after I eat.
What I miss: Nothing I really missed this week.

How your baby's growing:

Your baby's growing steadily, having gained about 4 ounces since last week. That puts him at just over a pound. Since he's almost a foot long (picture an ear of corn), he cuts a pretty lean figure at this point, but his body is filling out proportionally and he'll soon start to plump up.
