Belly Pics!!

Hey everyone!

So I am finally posting some belly pics on here. I know it has taken forever and many people have been at me to put them on here. The first one (in the black and white) is me at 18 weeks and the second is at 20 weeks.

Things in pregnancy land are great. I am feeling great and Hayden is kicking (and kicking and kicking) all the time. Its neat to lay in bed at night and watch my belly move from side to side with his powerful kicks. Pregnancy is such a miraculous and special thing that has already brought so much joy to our life. I know little Hayden will bring a lot more joy as the years go by. The days of throwing up all the time and gagging constantly seem to be like eons ago. I can vaguely remember what they were like and it seems like it only lasted for a brief bit. However if you read the previous posts you will know it lasted much longer than a week.

The nursey is starting to be cleared out. It was previously a junk/catch all room that is slowly but surely taking shape as Hayden's room. Josh and I are going to try and register sometime soon, once we figure out what exactly we need. We hope to ahve the nursery well on its way within the next month or so. I want to have it done as soon as possible just in case anything goes awry, I don't want Josh to have to worry about it and I don't want to worry about Josh worrying about it! :)

I am officially at 21 weeks and have passed the half-way point. I couldn't be happier that everything seems to be progressing normally but it just seems to be flying by. I can appreciate every step of the way but can't wait to meet our little guy. We talk to him every night just to make sure he knows exactly who we are when he comes out. Its fun dreaming of what he will be one day and imagining what/who is going to look like. I secretly hope he looks like Josh with the bright blonde hair and blue eyes that Josh had as a child. I don't want to let Josh know these hopes because it would probably just make his head big or something.

Anyways, I think thats all from our end of the world. Hope everyone is doing well. I am counting down the days until summer break!
