21 weeks

I think I could be pregnant at this stage of pregnancy forever.  Aside from not being able to remember things like I used to, I have energy and feel like I'm starting to finally look pregnant, which is fun.  I am so thankful that I feel great overall.  And, I can feel the baby moving (and some of the time Landon can too!), so I don't find myself worrying about the baby as much as in the beginning.  It's reassuring to feel him moving and kicking around during the day.  And, while overwhelming, it's been fun to begin thinking about decorating the nursery and picking out a name and registering for baby things.  Sometimes I just find myself smiling as L and I are talking about the baby because for as long as I can remember I've wanted to be a mom and it sometimes seems too good to be true that in a few months it will be a reality!

Right now, according to our baby books, Baby Speights is about 3/4 of a pound and about the length of a carrot.  However, at our ultrasound a week ago, she had him measuring at about 15 oz (almost a pound) already, so I'm curious what my doctor has to say when we go on Thursday.  So, maybe our baby is about the size of a big carrot. :)
