.22 Weeks.


I feel more like I am 36 weeks.

My back hurts ALL the time. I reach my level of exhaustion WAY sooner than I would like. My patience wears WAY too thin some days. Hormones...I WANT MY BODY BACK!!!

Now on to the good stuff :)

I can feel Baby Boy kicking and moving around ALL the time!! I absolutely love it. He usually wakes up at about 7am every morning as Aaron is climbing out of bed to head to work.

The other morning, Aaron laid in bed with me for a few extra minutes just to feel our little guy kicking and moving around. I hope it made his morning the way it makes mine every single day.

It seems like the weeks are just flying by. I don't think I will be able to believe it has actually been 9 months when the time comes to meet this little one.

.20 Weeks.

There it is...my belly at the halfway mark!!

That's also a baby BOY in there!!!

I am SO excited I feel like I could go around telling complete strangers that we are having a baby boy.
Don't worry, I haven't done that...nor do I plan on doing that. 
It seems that when you are obviously pregnant, people ask you enough what you are having and when you are due. 

Baby Boy looked great at the ultrasound. He is measuring exactly with the dates we originally had.
I went in to the ultrasound 19 weeks and 6 days along...and left the ultrasound with baby measuring at 19 weeks and 6 days. He is weighing in at 11 ounces.

Yes, we do have a name picked out. We have told family the name, but we aren't planning on sharing it with everyone else until he arrives. That part will just have to remain a surprise. :)

.18 Weeks.



                Well...this baby definitely has grown a lot in the past 2 weeks.

I am still feeling the same as I was 2 weeks ago. 

Not really having any cravings, just feeling big. Starting to feel a little fat! :)

I am still eating normally, not a lot of sweets. I do have dessert once or twice a week. I haven't been as hungry at night before bed lately. I think my body is starting to adjust to pregnancy pretty well. 

This morning, while laying in bed, I was laying next to Aaron and put his hand on my belly. The baby hadn't been kicking or anything, but it kicked Aaron's hand as soon as I had put it on there. Must have known Daddy was there. :)

My fears of having 3 kids come and go by the day. Some days I wonder "How in the heck do people with 3 kids leave the house?" ... those days tend to be the days that the girls are living up to their nickname of
 "Mommy's Little Monsters"

We find out what we are having on the 14th! 

What do you think?
Girl?
or
Boy?
