Half way!!!

I had no intention of the blog becoming only baby updates, BUT  life has been so busy that it's been about all I have had time to do.  Ike and I are both doing great both been really busy with work. We are looking forward to the holidays and seeing our family and friends at home.

Now to the baby update. Last week was week 20!  I can't believe we are already half way!  We celebrated by spending Saturday registering and getting a few more things we needed for the nursery.  I will put up some of the progress on the room soon!

20 Weeks

How far Along: 20 weeks
How big is baby: The baby is the size of a banana.
Weight gain/loss: 10 lbs
Maternity Clothes: Still a mix in shirts and dresses. Pants are strictly maternity
Stretch Marks: No
Sleep: much better
Diet: GREAT! hungry all the time!
Gender: Boy! confirmed again this week!
Movement: Yes just a little.  Ike still can't, and the few times I have tired to get him to he says that must be gas ewww. 
The belly: BIG!  It crazy when I look down and see such a belly!
What I miss: nothing in particular this week

19 weeks

I have not fallen off the face of the earth, but work has been so busy and crazy!  I thought I would do so much better with these weekly updates.  But let's face it not a WHOLE lot has changes from week to week.  So here we are...

Weight gain/loss: to be honest not real sure.  I think about 8lbs.
Maternity Clothes: Still a mix in shirts and dresses.  Pants are strictly maternity.

Gender: Boy!
Movement: Yes, I can feel just a little every now and then. 
The belly: just take a look above!  It's GROWING!

Symptoms: Heartburn, frequent urination. I am really feeling pretty great!
What I'm looking forward to: Feeling him move more, and I will be excited for Ike to feel him move.  AND our doctor's appointment next week when we get to see him again.
Best moment of the week: Starting to feel him some.
