Stretch marks:  Just the old ones.

Sleep:  Wouldn't you think 9 hours would be enough... NO!
Best moment this week: Watching KK really have a word explosion... and so polite too with her "cheeses" and "thank yous"
Food cravings:  Ummm... EVERYTHING! Hence the title of this post :( Especially if it is greasy, comes from a window and has either cheese or bacon on it... that type of eating stopped Tuesday :(

Movement: None. Cuz really.... its the size of a Olive :)

What I miss: My Brain... I keep forgetting tons of stuff... including my cell phone at home twice this week.
What I am looking forward to: 1st Trimester ending. 

Weekly Wisdom: Ask Clint to add your insulin number so you don't wake up at 12:30 with your blood sugar in the 50's cuz you're to brain dead to add right. And if you get induced at 38 weeks again, that means there are only 30 weeks left :)
