We are so excited to finally know that LilBit is a BOY!!! We were so sure we were going to have a girl, so it was such a surprise and we couldn't be happier! We cannot wait to meet our little man! And while we were at the doctor, we found out that we will most likely meet him a week earlier than we planned! They moved our due date from November 13th to the 8th! We also got to finally see how big he is getting. He is moving around like crazy! He was constantly wiggling which is why his heartbeat has been so high-- tricky tricky little one! It was so fun to get to see his little hands, feet, arms, spine, developing brain, and even his heart beating! It just still all seems so unreal sometimes.
We had fun sharing our excitement with family and friends at a gender reveal party. We played games, had everyone wear bows or bow ties to indicate their guesses, ate some good food-- and candy, and finally opened our little bear to discover it was wearing a blue shirt!
Feeling: I have been feeling wonderful. I'm really enjoying having all my energy back. I've also been feeling LilBit move around now too and when I feel him, if I press slightly on my stomach I can feel him kick and punch against my hand! David even got to feel him too!
Cravings: Chocolate, chocolate, and more chocolate. Also, I still want bean burritos. All the time. And peanut butter.
Food aversions: asian food
Weight gain: since last update- about 2lb
LilBit: LilBit is now the size of a banana! Instead of measurements being from crown to rump, he is now measured from head to toe. He is around 10 inches long. And at the doctor, they said he weighs 11 ounces! LilBit is swallowing more these days-- good practice for the digestive system.

We have gotten a lot of stuff recently. We have gotten LilBit a lot of new clothes too since we can finally buy things that aren't gender neutral! Below are just a few pics of things we bought/were given. David and I also had fun registering at Buy Buy Baby yesterday for tons of baby stuff! We had so much fun picking everything out and we are going to do it again today at Babies R Us!
