Lil' Bit: 31 weeks!

How far along?  31 weeks
Total weight gain/loss?  I'm going to start telling the nurse not to tell me my weight (which means I'll have to close my eyes... because I can read a scale, darnit).  Caring isn't going to change the fact that I'm pregnant and by golly... probably going to gain quite a bit more weight in the next 6-10 weeks.
Maternity clothes?  Oh, yeah.  I still wear normal comfy pants and t-shirts around the apartment, but the shirts aren't quiiiite covering my belly anymore (moving onto hubby's t-shirts which are a size larger!)  Even some of the maternity shirts aren't going to work much longer.  Grow, baby, grow!
Stretch marks? Well, I have a pretty lovely array of them from my first pregnancy, and while my tummy certainly itches, I seem to be stretching a little more reasonably this time... that being said, stretch marks are probably the least of my worries :).
Sleep? Once I get past the restless legs to fall asleep, I do alright.  Unfortunately, Miss Anni has been waking up a lot at night recently to ask for blankies/water/kleenex, so I have to go through the "attempting to fall asleep" process a few times a night (Daddy is wonderful and is perfectly willing to check on her, but she generally asks for both Mommy and Daddy, and it goes much faster if we both just head in and talk to her for a second.) 
 Best moment last week? Anni lovin' on her baby sister.  I love how she rolls through, "That's Lil' Bit.  She yivs in mommy's tummy.  Her my lil sister.  Is she comin' out soon?"  Sometimes she mixes things up and tells everyone that Lil' Bit is her big sister.
 Movement?  TONS!  This girl throws elbows, wiggles her little shoulders and responds strongly when I eat.  I love it... it helps so much that I'm not nauseous (I was still vomiting at this point with my first pregnancy, so movement was much harder to enjoy when ridiculously nauseous!)
 Food cravings? hmm... pizza just about always sounds good, and chocolate, and nectarines (though those are out of season, so I don't actually get to fulfill that craving) and really any fresh fruit.
 Gender? Still one sweet little girl.
Labor signs? Thank goodness, no!  My short-term goal is to make it past 33 weeks (when Anni was born) and then to full term (37) and then to whenever this sweetie is ready.  She is head down, which is nice not to have to worry about the breech issue.
Belly button in/out?  Still in, but it's definitely pretty shallow!  I'm actually hoping for the belly button pop this time ;-). 
What I miss: I miss... moving easily!  I'm starting to get to where it's harder to get up/ bend down/ walk quickly without some difficulty.   
What I am looking forward to: Holding this little one in my arms!  Also, admittedly, being done with shots!  We had to up them back to two shots twice a week... and I'm a wee bit sore (but also grateful that I have a great doctor making sure we get this baby here as healthy as possible).
Milestones: Passing the 30 week mark felt big to me, but otherwise we're really just truckin' along.  We see the doctor every two weeks and will have another ultrasound both to make sure I'm not headed into early labor and to check on Little Miss' kidneys (she has some small pockets that need to be watched).
