20 weeks! (halfway there)

Wow! I can't believe I am halfway through this pregnancy. The first trimester seemed to drag at times, but mostly it has just flown by.

Here I am at almost 20 weeks

I feel pretty good overall (especially compared to the first trimester), so I guess the 2nd trimester truly is the promised land! I have some discomfort sleeping, but I did this great workout DVD last night that included some stretching that really helped. The other least comfortable symptom I have is heartburn. Sadly, the 'prescription' is to eat a small bowl of ice cream every night. HA. (I'm not even kidding, by the way, and the amazing thing is that it actually works.)

Bruce and I have been working on changing the layout of our bedroom and clearing out our storage unit to make space for this little guy. So far, so good!

For those of you who are interested, here are some of the ultrasound pictures from our appointment last week:

You can see his profile on the left. The little black spot in his middle is his heart  :)

Oh, and here's a little foot :)

Drum roll, please!

Well, it's official! "Squirt" is a boy! We are so delighted - this is the third generation oldest son in Bruce's family and we are so happy to know our baby a little bit better now :)
