Not too much new to share... belly still expanding at an alarming rate, due in part this week to the tremendous quantities of food consumed over the Thanksgiving weekend!
As you can see Rick and I were having fun with digital filters!
Baby's moving more and more every day... what a cool sensation!
Oh- found out my sister's having a girl- so one of each in our family now! Congrats to her and JT!

Pregnant in pink!


At our monthly brunch club we also celebrated Heidi's soon-to-be new addition... another boy for the group! For some reason we all decided to wear pink! Breakfast was delicious and the lemon cupcakes were the perfect finish- thanks Erin!

Little kicks!


It's official... the baby is moving and we can finally feel it- for sure this time! No more confusing those odd little twitches for gas or my imagination- and Rick can confirm it! The other night we were lying in bed and there it was again, that strange little flutter, unlike any other sensation I have experienced. I held Rick's hand to my ever-expanding belly and viola... he kicked! (the baby that is- not Rick!) It was a very cool moment- it felt like we were a little family for the first time- the three of us present and kicking ( : Just wanted to share the fun news!

21 weeks and growing, growing, growing!!! People keep telling me it will come right off- they better be right! I'd hate to thing all my extra lumps and bump will stick around too much after the baby comes!

Here are two pics of our little boy still baking in my tummy... the first is a foot- very sweet! The next is a picture of the face, an arm and a little body with the heart beating a mile-a- minute inside! Pretty cool, although the image is a bit strange! Apparently we have quite the little acrobat in there as he refused to be still hardly at all for dozens of pictures the nice tech was trying to take. The little bugger did flips, kicked, punched and even rolled away from us! This made catching a good picture of his sweet little face a bit of a challenge but our tech tried her hardest! It was just so amazing to see all that movement and yet not feel a thing (although I think I felt something today... more on that later). In any case, our little bundle is about 12 oz- the size of that lovely can of diet coke I have given up in the name of a healthy pregnancy! Hope he appreciates it!
