Weekly Update - Nursery Inspiration

How far along? 16 weeks 3 days
Total weight gain/loss: It is sad but I think it's close to 15 at this point. I have gained a pound a week. Nearly 5 pounds last month.
Maternity clothes? Still a mixture but some of my favorite summer skirts are tight. :(
Stretch marks? Yep. But it's normal and I don't mind it much.
Sleep: I had the craziest dream last night. All I know is it required me to be IT and while I do this it's not really my strongest ability.
Best moment this week: Feeling some little flutters. Usually in the AM and sometimes on top of my bladder. I researched it a little and its called quickening and it's not kicking but the baby rolling around. I love this phase.
Movement: See above.
Food cravings: Nothing lately. I have noticed a new desire for pickles. Especially fried pickles. I never really liked pickles before so it's interesting to want to eat them on things. I found a random bottle in the pantry and thought to myself why aren't these in the fridge and what can I eat them with.
Labor Signs: Lets hope not!
What I miss: Bending over without feeling annoyance. Especially while doing laundry. For some reason this is getting super hard to do lately. But I have google researched it does not hurt that baby at all.
What I am looking forward to: We are doing a mother's day brunch at my house. I love brunch!
Weekly Wisdom: Start getting used to bending with the knees. It's good for strength building.
Milestones: I am headed towards half baked. Time seems to be going faster this time around.

So for those of you who don't know we are not finding out the sex this time. But we have now agreed on a color scheme since this will be the next room to paint. We will be reusing Sophia's dresser and crib. So it will be a dark cherry wood. We will likely not split colors like the below. I will probably have some sort of tree decals on the wall. I like the brighter yellow though.
