The past month has been a blur. School is keeping us both crazy busy and I admit I've gotten a little overwhelmed at times. But I've realized I need to just balance my life more and rely on the Lord and things will all work out. I was shocked on Friday night, I got home from work and showered and changed into my jammies. I walked past the mirror and did a double take 'cause I'm pretty sure my belly grew a ton just overnight! I even asked Tanner if it had looked that big the day before and he was surprised too. It's exciting to be looking more pregnant, it makes it all feel more real. We've been horrible about taking pictures, so these are the only ones I have now, but here is the baby bump:
20 weeks! Halfway there!
I might have already posted a picture of his crib, but I'll do it again, 'cause I love to look at it ever since our ultrasound.
Here are the exciting pictures, it's little Eric!! He's the cutest (little creepy in a way, but a good way) little skeleton baby I've ever seen. He was moving all over the place and kept his hands up by his face like he is here in the picture. I held it together for a while, but by the end I had to cry a little because I was so happy; plus I saw Tanner was teary eyed and that was too much for me.
He's so much bigger than last time we saw him, he's all squished! Tanner was worried the other night he's going to come out with his head sideways like that and told me I need to give him more room. If you can't see him very well, his head is in the middle, that's his hand and arm on the right, and the big circle in the bottom right is his cute lil tummy.
Here's his perfect little foot, five toes and all. This is where I finally cried. It's amazing, I can't believe he's really growing in there. I can't feel much still because of where the placenta is, but he's getting big so fast!
Last of all, proof he's a boy. :) Tanner and I laughed that they circled it for us. Tanner asked the doctor doing the ultrasound "Are you sure it's a boy?" She said, well, if it were a girl, nothing would be in that little circle, so yeah, I'm pretty sure. It made me laugh. Tanner is so excited, it's the cutest thing ever. He's going to be a great dad. I'll try to update more next month, they couldn't see a couple things last time, so we have to get another ultrasound next month, so we'll have more pictures, I'm excited to see how much he grows!
