.22 weeks

Have I told you yet how awesome it is to feel a baby kicking in your belly all day?

And to be only four months away from meeting this spaghetti squash?

Its probably the best thing ever.

Not so awesome, however, is how awesomely fat I am.
I mean, have you seen my behind!? Yikes.

Don't look, just take my word for it.

This video made me laugh my head off (if you've seen Downton Abbey, you'll get it):

.It's Pat

At our ultrasound today the baby wouldn't cooperate again.

Although we did get to see his/her face!!!

So as a punishment we are calling it Pat.

Like from the silly movie which you may or may not have seen? (you should probably see it)

We may be forced to get ANOTHER ultrasound! $$$!! (I've already had four free ones this pregnancy. hehe)

**************************************

Anyway, Air and I have had a lot going on over the last couple of weeks! Air has been working like a mad man with some extra loads of responsibility at work. I got a new calling in the Young Women as the laurel advisor. Also, we're still trying to get our taxes done. Goodness, they get more complicated every year.

But, we're very excited for this weekend's General Conference!!! Yayay!

.sister winter + a movie

This winter has been lovely.

And I NEVER say that about winter!

Every winter since I've been in Edmonton has had

days with temperatures around -50°C (-58°F).

This winter didn't have a single one of those days!

In fact! Our shower pipes haven't been frozen for

one single morning!

Absolutely lovely!

I made a video of our winter days this year.

I hope you enjoy it!

And now...........................................................I bring you that very video...........................................................

Goodbye Winter, Happy Spring!!!

20120316 twenty weeks pregnant (24) edit

Gosh! Another post about this pregnancy? Are you guys sick of this?

To be honest, it’s all going by way too fast for me!
It's obviously our first time and we're a little excited.

This week our baby is as long as a BANANA from head to toe!

And I think I’ve been feeling banana kicks?? Still hard to say for sure…

Lately I feel really sad that I can’t be near my Mom during this pregnancy. I wish that I could sit down with my family and friends and share all of this excitement with them.

For me, there really is no option but to blog my life away. It’s the best way to feel close to you guys and let you feel involved in my life. I miss you so much!

Especially you, Ma&Pa…

.baby what?

*back of the head on the right and spine going out to the left

Our ultrasound on Tuesday was great, we got to see the
baby's head, spine, heart, arms, legs and FEET kicking around!

But you know what, we could only see the back of it's little head.
And you know what, we couldn't see anything gender related.

I was bummed.

We scheduled another ultrasound for the end of the month.

Please baby, let us see something this time!??

Air was really sneaky with my iphone in the ultrasound room.

What? There’s a big sign that says no cell phones? hehe

Thanks for all the votes this week!

The poll has stayed pretty steadily at 50/50... so that's good? :)
You can still vote on the previous post if you didn't get to yet!
Don't worry, it's completely anonymous!
I'll never know you voted, unless you tell me...
