Belly Dancing?

Today I called Johnny at work to tell him I could see my belly popping out when the baby kicked. It kept cracking me up and was such a new and exciting step in our pregnancy as we never got to experience that with Weston. I knew if Johnny was home he would have been able to finally feel the baby. When Johnny got home from work, the baby started kicking again so I grabbed Johnny's hand and placed it on my belly. The baby gave one last BIG kick, and Johnny looked at me with his eyes really big and said "Oh! I felt that!" I'm so thrilled that things are going so well up to this point. Actually seeing my belly moving when the baby's kicking is funny & exciting, and feeling the baby move is so incredible - I just love it!

20 Week Checkup

Today I had my 20 week doctor appointment. I got the evil eye from him because unlike I stated in my last post, I've actually gained a total of 9 pounds now - six were in the past four weeks! Yikes!!! He took the fundal height measurement & the baby appears to be growing at the rate he should be.....or it could just be all that weight I put on..... ;)

20 Weeks Pregnant

Today we are 20 weeks pregnant. As you can see, my belly hasn't popped out much, but it's definitely getting bigger. I also haven't gained much weight (probably only around 5 lbs total), which isn't a bad thing! :) I feel the baby moving quite a bit. He apparently takes after his parents and loves to eat because he goes bonkers when I eat. LOL. I'm very excited for Johnny to be able to feel the baby move - maybe in a couple weeks.

I also started a new job last Friday. I now work at JC Penney's Portrait Studio at Crossroads Mall in Waterloo. So far I'm just doing training so am trying to learn everything. I got to take my first pictures today. They were of a baby boy who wasn't very cooperative. He was pretty fussy and kept making crazy faces so not too many good pictures in that bunch. I think it's going to be fun. Next Friday I get to take Drake & Darek's (the twins Mom babysits) 3 year pictures. I'm looking forward to it.
