i'm 23 weeks now and being pregnant at thanksgiving is excellent. i got to eat. and eat...and eat some more. herman munstertiger loved all of the goodies and was moving all around after the big meal. mr. h3b and i spent the holiday with my mom, dad, and sister. lucky for sister, she got to feel little baby kicks. everyone was surprised by how much my belly has changed (my dad hadn't seen me in person since 8 weeks). it was great to be with them and made me excited for them to meet baby h3b.
in other exciting news, i finally got to open my stroller! awhile back i ordered a quinny buzz 3 in capri blue from babies r us - i found a 50% off coupon from baby cheapskate and snatched one up the second mr. h3b agreed to it. it's been at my parents' house and my mom brought it down for me. it's amazing and adorable and i can't wait to take walks and get out and about with it. hilarity ensued when i put one of my miniature dachshunds in it. he loved being pushed around and wanted to get back in when i took him out. i think he'll be jealous when i have a real baby to use it...
everything else continues to go well. belly grows, baby kicks. my hips and back hurt a little more each week and my sleep is interrupted by at least one bathroom break and no less than five tosses and turns that require heaving my body and my body pillow around in the bed. i feel good, though. in my pregnancy prime, where everyone loves the belly and i still feel like i can walk without waddling. my next appointment will tell me how my weight is going (meaning, how soon will i waddle) and hopefully we'll get a good picture of his profile.
ultrasound next week!

ha...I thought you were kidding on facebook when you said he loved it.
I can't believe you're 23 weeks already! It goes by so fast. I remember the tossing and turning...that is the worst! I don't know what kind of body pillow you have but I really recommend the maternity pillow I used because it has two sides and makes for less adjusting when you do manage to flip over. You could give it a try and see if it makes your night more comfy:)

My husband stole it from me whenever he got the chance and was sad when I put it away :D
