Our Baby Girl: Week 20

"Making the decision to have a child - it's momentous. It is to decide forever to have your heart go walking outside your body." - Elizabeth Stone

I am writing this a day early, but I am officially 5 months on Christmas Day so I am pretty sure I will not feel like typing then.  Thus far, the pregnancy is going great! No big complaints, besides being tired all the time...but what can you do! Occassionally, I will get the sudden spurt of energy.  I am still under my pre-pregnancy weight but not by much.  Maybe just a pound or two.  My stomach is a little more uncomfortable than I remember it being with Colin...but that is tolerable.  I am wondering what my flights to Italy and Greece will feel like when I am 6 or 7 months pregnant...talk about uncomfortable, but so worth it!  We are still looking at names but I think we got it mostly figured out.  We are going to start on the nursery after the new year.  I do not want to go overboard with buying tons of new decorations, so I planning on doing Winnie-the-Pooh again, but this time a girlier take! I mean it is me, we are talking about so I am not painting the room pink, but it will definitely have a girly flare to it!  As much as I can handle at least! We are also going to paint Colin's room also!  We want him to feel as much a part of the change as possible.  His room is Super Hero themed.  My mom, the sweetheart, is going to make curtains for both rooms.  It is going to be cute!  Super excited!

Here are a few pictures from this last week.  Technically at 19 weeks but it close enough.  I look like I grew a lot in the one in the sweater, but I think it was due to layers because today I look more like the red shirt one.


Our little girl is finally moving more today.  I can feel her a lot as I type this.  Such a sweet thing to feel but something I am not sure if you ever quite get used to!
