Bump Pic Finally!!

Here is my most updated bump picture! I still think I look borderline pregnant/chubby belly. But it's definitely coming along =-)

He's still moving a ton also. He always moves the most between 9pm-11pm every night, so it's my routine to put my I-Pod on for him and watch him kick the headphones. (It's CRAZY being able to see him roll around, watching the ripples on my stomach!) I'm not sure if him kicking the headphones means he likes the music, or hates it, so I don't leave it on for long. I get so excited with our little bonding time every night--then I remember that this cute little thing is going to have to come out someday, and won't just be a silent one that kicks...he's going to cry and poop too. Haha, so I'm just taking advantage of the time now. I know the only thing I will miss about being pregnant is feeling him move, kick, and punch, so I want to focus on enjoying it while I can!

Shout out to my out of town family member: I hope I get to see you all for my showers in September, or sometime soon! I miss everyone, and wish I saw more of you! We'll be making lots of trips once the baby's born of course though!

20 week Pics (sorry bad quality)

Profile of his face

Definitely a boy!!


He's still moving a TON through out the day. I introduced to him to music the other day through my I-Pod headphones (some Jim Brickman piano music, and some of my relaxing yoga music) and he loved it! There was a loud part in one of the yoga songs (like a loud booming sound) and it must have scared him because he did a crazy roll, punch, kick movement that I could see from the outside--it even knocked my headphones off my belly! I feel like he already has a personality, and it gets DJ and I so excited to bring him into our lives. What a beautiful surprise he was to us =-D

Anatomy Appt./More Movement

So, we had our anatomy appointment yesterday morning and it went great! According to the measurments of the baby we're actually at 20 weeks not 19! Which would be awesome, because that way the baby will probably come earlier. And the earlier the better since the due date is the day after Thanksgiving! I think it's enough having my birthday on Christmas =-). So we found out he weighs 10 oz which is normal for 20 weeks along. Also, he would not stop moving! I have a feeling we're going to have our hands full =-S. I felt him move for the first time Saturday morning, and then I figured I probably won't feel him for a while since a lot of first time moms say that can happen, but he moved the next day all afternoon! (And like I said below, DJ was able to feel him for the first time...he was very excited!) And then he moved Monday afternoon, Tuesday all night, Wednesday all morning (and through the appt) and also all through out the day! I haven't felt him this morning as much (he's probably catching up on his lack of sleep for the past 5 days!) I actually love it though. A lot of people say I'll get sick of it, which I probably will, but for now it just puts me at ease knowing he's alright and having fun in there! I just can't wait 'till he gets here, he's so adorable! I have a few friends who've had their babies already, or are due really soon, and it's making me so anxious!!

I'll be posting up the pictures from our appointment as soon as I can! ...And I'm also starting to get a little bump, so hopefully I can post some pictures up of my belly too!

Movement!!!

I felt the baby move for the first time yesterday!!

It was early in the morning, and I was trying to go back to sleep (I wake up a lot while I sleep) and I felt a punch! I thought it may have been a twitch, but I put my hand where I felt the movement, and he kicked 2 times more! It was sooo crazy! I loved it =-D I called DJ at work right away. Then, today he was moving all over in the afternoon! I just sat there in bed for an hour just feeling him, and he even moved for DJ. He was so excited to feel it!

Ahh I'm so excited =-) We have our long appointment on wednesday to check on the baby's measurments, and make sure everything is developing well, so I'll put a new post up then.

Love you!
