20 wk Belly Pics!

It has been requested (Amy) that I add another belly pic. So, here it is in all it's glory!

And, here's a cute pic from yesterday while I was waiting for the doctor.

20 week ultrasound!

Here's our 20 week ultrasound... It's still a girl!!!

Fun Thursday!

What a great day! I had my 20 week check up this afternoon and my doctor said Baby girl Thomas looks beautiful. She is 14 ounces and everything is measuring perfectly. Every ultrasound I have had, she is facing out... so no cool profile pictures.

I know this looks like it could be a profile, but it's not! You can see her ribs really well and her spine, though.

And this is her beautiful face... looking right at you! (the dark 'round' spots are her eye sockets.)

So, after all that good news, I met Erin downtown Apex for National Mom's Night Out. I am so glad we went! We had fun (and I am exhausted!). We met a lot of local moms, had lots of cookies and snacks, got free manicures and lots of little free handouts, too. Here's a picture of Erin and I with Krista (the owner of GreenPea Nursery)...

This her adorable shop (one of the four rooms!).

National Mom's Nite Out

This Thursday night is National Mom's Nite Out! There will be events across the country and one of the best will be right here in downtown Apex. Sponsored by GreenPea Nursery (a fabulous retailer) and Go Mom! this event will feature loads of local store & restaurant discounts and even some giveaways. To find out more, visit the Facebook invite.

I hope to see you there!

20 Weeks!

I am halfway through my pregnancy! Baby girl Thomas is getting big, too. It's estimated that she now weighs 10 or more ounces. Up until this point, her length has been measured from head to rump because her legs have been curled up tight. But now, she will be measured from head to heel... she is probably about 10 inches from head to heel!

I am feeling great! We had a busy weekend... Kevin was home most of the time finishing a project for school (Spring semester is almost over!) and I spent time with some girlfriends. Yesterday, we started painting the wood trim and doors in the nursery. It's amazing how much "cleaner" it looks in there now! All that's left is the baseboards. I ordered the adorable window valances last week so those should be coming soon. I can't wait to get them up!

My next doctor's appointment is this Thursday. I will probably get another ultrasound since it's my 20 week check up. I am so anxious to see what my baby girl looks like now! She is still just as active as always. It will be interesting when she is kicking and punching hard enough to keep me awake at night.
