Sono from October 14th - baby is 21 weeks



Its hard to see the pictures but from top left is the babies arm, she is flexing her bicep for daddy. Next is a picture of her tiny foot, which I can't wait to chew on! The bottom two are profile pictures of her, the last one she has her arm up resting on her head. Isn't she cute??? The sono apt. told us that everything looks right on track, she is healthy and growing like she should be! She is 13 oz and the length of a large banana. She is also beginning to suck down amniotic fluids that fill her very small tummy. Time for mommy to make sure to eat all the right foods, including all of my fruits and veggies so she will learn to like them.

I can finally feel when she is kicking me or doing belly gymnastics. What a crazy but really neat sensation. Al was also able to feel her kick me when he placed his hands across my belly. Now that I know the feeling she sure does do flips and turns frequently, especially at night when I am ready to go to sleep! Maybe we have a future cheerleader/tumbler in the making :)

PS. she is kicking me right now, I guess she wants to say HI to all of her future family and friends.

20 weeks down 20 to go


Happy birthday grandma Caslow... and on this beautiful afternoon
it is confirmed that Katie finally is growing a baby pouch.
The baby is now 20 weeks, we're at halftime and the name game continues.
Clothes are being bought, diapers also I think, and Katie
is on me about starting the room, ugh.
