19 Weeks

19 Weeks
9/11/12

As I should, I have learned a lot about myself while being pregnant. For example, my mother and older sister say I am now "bossy". Which means I'm basically just like you MICHELLE! :) I really thought my tears would be constantly flowing while pregnant but they don't come often. When they do, I'm pretty upset. I try to hide them because I don't want to be that hormonal crazy preggo lady. Instead, I'm the bossy crazy preggo lady. :\ Sorry! Especially those of you who are in my path over the next 21 weeks!

21 more weeks!!! We are almost halfway there! So hard to believe! I told Josh last night that the first half of this pregnancy has flown by, his response was, "Not fast enough!" I'm going to assume that he means because he can't wait to hold that sweet Virginia Lynn. And not because I'm crazy hormonal bossy preggo lady. :)

Virginia Lynn is the size of a cantaloupe this week! Putting her around 10 ounces and about 6 1/2 inches long!

Have you seen me? I mean, I feel like I'm huge and I'm only half way! Can't wait to see how big I look full term! I went back to the doctor on Thursday and when it was time to weigh-in, I was shocked to find out that I am down a total of 10 pounds since my first appointment! My scale has been totally wrong! I guess that just means I have less to lose after the baby, right????

OH! Guess what! I FINALLY felt Virginia Lynn kick!! Yay! It seems like every night for 2 weeks I would lay in bed just waiting for something to happen. So on Friday night we were laying there and after a fight over whether we are going to watch Friends or College Football, I gave in and let Josh watch his game since I knew he would be asleep within minutes anyways. I felt this little flutter, not once but twice! I have felt her a few more times but nothing very consistent. Just happy to be able to feel her! So very exciting!! :)
