I am somewhere around 16-17 weeks pregnant. It's hard to tell after the ultrasound when they measure and change things, but it's close enough :) They asked me at my doctors appointment yesterday if I have felt the baby move yet, but I can't way I am to sure. When they tell you it can feel alot like gas (something that I have more of these days) it is hard to tell (ha!) It was so good to hear the baby's heart beat and know that he or she is growing and healthy as far as anyone knows. Sometimes it doesn't feel real until I hear that heart beat again.
My sister has 12 weeks left, which is just insane. I am so glad that she is having a baby and I will not be far behind, and yet I won't be able to be there to meet the little guy when he comes into the world because I won't be able to travel.
We are starting to plan baby showers for her and myself (at least the ones I have to travel for). It is exciting, and yet overwhelming when I think about all of the things we need to register for. Research one day at a time to pick out so many items, that I may or may not know how to use :) I know things are returnable, but I am very slow to buy anything even for myself and now I have to pick out things for someone who is not here, and not know if they will use it or not. It's just pure craziness...
It's time to start taking the fun weekly belly pics, but there are so many creative ideas on Pinterest that I just know which one to choose.
I can't wait to be a mommy, I used to think that single and independent was the way to go, but I see the joy God has in creating families and I am excited and truly blessed!
