Half-time!

We're at the halfway point! As of today, I am 20 weeks pregnant - and the normal pregnancy is 40 weeks, which means we made it half way. I can't believe how fast time is flying! It really seems like we just found out that we were having a baby, and now we're already at 20 weeks. It's so crazy.

We met baby Macy last week, which was fun. She is very cute - and gave us a little taste of what we have in store for ourselves. It was great to see her parents Jonas and Christy as well - they seem to be adjusting very well to being parents.

We had a great weekend with Lizzie and Casey - we went whale watching yesterday and saw tons of whales. We even saw a whale from the window on the ferry. It was amazing!

All in all, it was a good week :)

How far along?: 20 weeks

Total weight gain: 18 to 20 pounds

How big is baby?: 6 1/2 inches, 10 1/2 ounces

Maternity clothes?: I need some maternity pj's I think :)

Stretch marks?: Haven't seen any yet

Sleep?: I'm not getting enough, but what I am getting is decent

Best moment this week?: Finding out that baby S is a BOY!!! Also, hanging out with Lizzie and Casey and going whale watching!

Movement?: The "gas bubbles" that I thought weren't kicks definitely are kicks. So yes I am feeling some. They're still pretty small and hard to feel from the outside, but he's definitely getting bigger and stronger in there :)

Food cravings?: I had a craving for "muffins" last week, so I had to make myself some raspberry muffins (which were delicious, I might add). That's all this week.

Labor signs?: Nope.

Belly button in or out?: In, and no sign of it popping anytime soon.

What I miss: My wardrobe!!! I have a decent amount of maternity clothes, but it's just not enough - a girl needs choices!

What I'm looking forward to this week: Hanging out with baby Jackson tonight, maybe starting our registry this week - and then my mom and Magdalena (my niece) coming to visit on Wednesday night. We're going to go to the fair, the children's museum, and whale watching again - I am SO excited!

Weekly Wisdom: Enjoy the days before baby gets here - the pregnancy goes by so quickly!

Milestone: Feeling kicks! (And knowing what they are!)
