21 Weeks

I'm writing this on Monday but backdating to Sunday to keep the timing correct.

Let me preface this picture by saying that it's horrid! I actually looked decent both days this past weekend and forgot to have Walter take a picture. Today it's raining and the boys and I are staying in so my outfit choice is pretty scruffy. Combine that with the fact that my butt looks bigger than my stomach, the pic is blurry and there is an awful reflection from the mirror and the window, this is clearly not my finest moment. But, it's what I've got.

So here it is, 21 Weeks!

To catch up since my last post at 16 weeks:

• I started feeling the baby move regularly at about 17 weeks. I can now feel movement daily and it's stronger than I'd expect for this stage.
• I'm pretty much in all maternity pants now except for sweats. Shirts are still 50/50 as I can make some of my regular clothes work if they are long enough.
• I don't know exactly how much weight I've gained, but it's around 15lbs right now. I clearly need to slow that down or I'll be pretty darn heavy by the end. This time around I've been craving Little Debbie Nutty Bars. They are sooooo good -- too good! I have to ban myself from buying any more.
• Some days I feel more pregnant than others. We went on a family walk this weekend I was kinda winded at the end. I'm ALWAYS tired, no matter how much sleep I get. I think that's due more to the demands of X and W rather than being pregnant. I've been trying to nap when the boys nap lately.  I've also been getting sick occasionally in the evenings.
• I already posted about our 20 wk ultrasound - everything looks good and we are really thankful!
• We haven't talked about names the past few weeks so no decisions have been made as of now. 
• I had a very vivid dream that this baby is a girl about 2 weeks ago. Hmmmm......
