19 weeks

Two weeks ago at 17 weeks

Thanks to a gentle and loving request from my parents (I heard they were wondering what happened to our blog) I have decided to make a point to blog more. Hence the three blogs in two days, which means I'm off to a good start!

Family is so important to us and we wish we lived closer to everyone. So we want to use our blog to share more details about our lives!

We are so excited to be 19 weeks this Friday! That means next Wednesday is our ultrasound to find out if we're having a boy or girl...so stay tuned!  I have been enjoying the second trimester much more than the first. I feel better both physically and emotionally and now am beginning to look pregnant rather than just feeling pregnant. I've started swimming and really enjoy that. It brings me back to my days in swim club when I was in grade school.

Our little one weighs about 7 ounces and is the size of a bell pepper. They can flex their arms and legs and since their ears are in the right position they can hear! Tyler has started to read to our little one (thanks Ash and Alex for the Winnie the Pooh books!) We are so thankful for God's gift of life.
