Today marks the day when...

1. People are realizing I am pregnant and not just "gaining weight". I have had 5 customers say something to me ...all of them men ( I guess some are scared to ask ;))

2. The baby woke me up at 5 am moving around!

3. My hips have begun to move...when I stand up after sitting for awhile they will all of a sudden give out on me. ;(

4. I am starting to really stress that my house is not in the order I would like it to be in nor is the nursery even close to being complete!

5. I have exactly 4 months left!

The baby is growing!

Here are a few pictures of my growing belly! It is finally starting to look like I am pregnant instead of a "beer" belly ;). The first picture with my black striped pants on is at 18 weeks and the other two are from today, one day shy of 22 weeks. I am feeling the baby move more and more each day and I love it! We leave for Canada in a week and a half for our "babymoon", so I will be sharing those pictures soon!

19th week update!

We went to the doctor to see our little baby today and it was so exciting! The baby moved it's little hands up to it's mouth and kept turning it's head. The baby was a little camera shy because he/she was facing down but here are some of the shots the doctor took. Thanks for all your thoughts and prayers today...everything looked great! The baby weighs 9 oz. and is 7 1/2 inches long, and we stood strong on our decision not to find out the sex! I was so proud of us!

This is the profile of our baby...the baby is lying down facing up.

Can you see it's cute little nose? ;)

A picture of the baby's little behind. If you look close the legs are crossed at the ankles towards the right side of the picture and his/her little bottom is facing the camera.

I am slowly starting the feel the baby move! It feels more like my stomach is in knots when it flips. The doctor told us it should only be 2 more weeks until Matt would feel the baby move and he can hardly wait! As we begin to set up the room I will send pictures...it should be within the next couple of months. We are just so excited meet our little bundle of joy...only 20 more weeks!
