Baby #2

I am now 22 weeks along and things are going great with the new baby! I have to remind myself that I'm pregnant sometimes, thanks mostly to the fact that I stopped puking around 15 weeks and the nausea stopped for the most part around 17 weeks. I am showing enough now to start wearing some of my old maternity clothes, and I get a strange look from Amelia when dressing and undressing-haha;) I can feel the baby move all the time now, especially after I eat;) We're still not finding out the sex of the baby-but I am VERY curious! For the most part I feel good, but as all of you mothers know, "good" in pregnant terms does not count constantly feeling tired, body aches, the absolute inability to get comfortable in bed, and the rediculous indigestion/heartburn! All of these things are nothing compared to the joy of bringing another member into the family;) Here are a few pics of the work in progress:


Doesn't he/she look cozy! I love those lips;)

I'm sure this one looks crazy to most of you, but to the nurse in me it's absolutely beautiful. I love that you can see all of the body parts and the facial features, and I even love the umbilical cord (but be careful baby and don't get too crazy flipping around in there!)
Stay comfy in there baby and grow-we can't wait to meet you!

Happy Birthday to ME!

March 24 was my **th birthday (ok really I don't care-it was my 27th, and no that's not old, but it sounds older to me). After ruining the surprise that Chris had planned for that weekend for me by offering to work for a friend, he offered to take me to eat with our friends and family at Turoni's-one of my favorite pizza places! It turned out to be 30 of our closest friends and family (nothing Chris does is small)!! We ate and visited, kids played, celebrating was done. I think 27 is gonna be a good year!
