Lima Bean: Week Twenty Three

How far along: Twenty Three weeks as of Wednesday, March 19, 2014. 
Size of baby: Lima Bean is more than 11 inches long from head to heel and weighs just over a pound (about as much as a large mango).
Maternity Clothes: Same old, same old.  But Mark's mom surprised me with a lot of new spring and summer maternity clothes recently, which I am so grateful for.  Hoping I can wear them when the weather warms up a bit.
Movement: Lots of movement.  I notice it more at night, more than I ever did with Henry.  Lima Bean even moves in the middle of the night after I take a trip to the bathroom or roll over.  I don't remember Henry being this active at night.  Makes me a little nervous about her sleep habits, not going to lie!  Although Henry didn't sleep through the night until 10 months, so maybe fetal movement patterns don't make much of a difference.
Sex of baby: It's a girl!
Sleep: Finding it a little harder to go back to sleep at times after my frequent bathroom breaks.  But nothing bad at all.
What I miss: Wine would be nice to unwind at night!
Cravings: Chinese food again.  So weird.  But easy enough to satisfy!
Symptoms: Exhaustion.  I had a crazy work week this week and worked way too much.  It really took a toll on me physically.  It didn't help that Mark was out of town for several days.  Luckily for me, my parents were in town and helped me out a ton, watching Henry and cooking dinner.  I don't know what I would have done without them. 
What I'm looking forward to: Taking Henry on some little adventures before Lima Bean arrives.  We are considering traveling to Denver in May to spend a few days.  Mark will be there anyway for a work trip, and I have never been to Colorado, so I thought it might be fun to do a little babymoon.  I need to check with my doctor to see whether I should make the trip at that stage in my pregnancy.  We also want to go into the city to the zoo and some museums when the weather improves.
