Suffice it to say that a lot has changed since my last post…
…i just can’t get enough of this kid!
Here is a much overdue picture of my belly for anyone who wishes to see what a pregnant Kelly looks like these days. I am in the middle of my 21st week of pregnancy and it has recently been brought to my attention that babies in-utero don’t only kick out, they also kick in and up and down. What a trip! You would have thought that in all my life I would have considered this a possibility in pregnancy, but no. I never had. Until now. And I’d be lying if I said I hadn’t poked my belly and asked a certain baby to direct his feet elsewhere.
So far he’s decided to do what he wants instead of what mom wants. No big surprise there.
Other than that things are going well – dad got to feel his first kicks and both of us are enjoying the game where we press on my belly to see if ‘little g’ (as i’ve been calling him) would like to play. And sometimes he does!
Last but not least, if you’re wondering why I’m in such a yellow-y picture up there, here are my list of reasons: 1) it was still dark outside when we took the picture, so we only had indoor light, 2) all our indoor lighting has a tendency to cast a jaundiced look on everything inside the house, especially when the shades are closed, and 3) our walls are painted a neutral khaki color, which only heightens the yellow look. But it sure seems warm in there, doesn’t it?
Here’s an updated picture of my belly:
This picture was taken probably 2 weeks ago…we’ve been out of town off and on since then, so this is the latest. As soon as I take another one I’ll post it, because, WOW, my belly grew a bunch in the last 3 days. I didn’t even know that [...]
If you read my husband’s blog, you know we recently had our church’s annual Family Camp. We love Family Camp. Nay, we are completely ENAMORED with Family Camp! Gene had the good fortune of going when he was just a tiny guy, but after a number of years it got too costly and the church [...]
Well folks, we are now at 14 weeks and are officially into the 2nd trimester! (We even got to hear the heartbeat and some swishy “movement” noises from our little champ the other day. We loved it!) So far the biggest difference for me between the 1st trimester and the 2nd is…the belly. I’m still [...]
…that I posted again. And what better to post after a long hiatus than this:
And the best part is, it’s ours! It’s the littlest Pensiero. Jamie said baby p looks like a gummy bear and I think she is absolutely right. I’ve never seen a cuter gummy bear, that’s for sure!
When we had the ultrasound, [...]
