Half way there...

This week we had our 20 week full anatomy check up and ultrasound. Stephen and I were SO excited to see our baby again...we couldn't wait all morning for our appt.! :)

                                            19 weeks 5 days

        Confirmed - He's a BOY for sure!!! :) Dad was proud, hehe!

Our little guy is a growing machine! All of his body parts (arms, legs, belly, head, etc.) are measuring normal, which is a wonderful sign, and all organs are growing perfectly. It was incredible to see his heart chambers and brain....and my favorite picture - of his little toes!!

                                                 Precious little feet!

My favorite part of the whole check up was when the doctor was trying to get a good shot of his face for us. Of course, he is already stubborn and kept moving around - so we didn't get lucky, but....we did get him to sit still for a view seconds to watch him drink. Yes, I said drink! :) The doctor pointed out how baby was opening and closing his mouth with his tongue moving back and forth. Doc said that's a good sign and that baby was drinking. Thirsty little guy! :) Of course, that brought tears to my eyes. He is growing so fast and we just can't wait to meet him.

I have been feeling him move now for a few weeks. It is the quickest little tickle and SO amazing! It has been very sporadic though...which has had me worried a couple times, but I talked to our Doctor and he said it's very normal. I will feel him a couple times a day and then nothing for a few days. So every couple days baby does kick around to assure his momma he's safe and sound. :) I cannot wait for Stephen to feel him move!!


                                      20 weeks.... 140 days to go!

We are finishing up painting the trim/edges in babies room. We will post pictures soon..
We better get ourselves in serious baby-mode....he'll be here before we know it!!!! :)
