2 more sleepies

As of today we have 2 more sleepies until we go to the doctor to try--again--to find out the gender.

Some things to remember that Matt says...
Matt.  "Kick harder, harder, kick your mom harder!!!"
Me, "NO that would hurt, please don't kick harder!"
Him, "I want it to so I CAN FEEL IT!!"

He got whacked for this next one.
This one night I really was having a hard time sleeping while staying at Grandma and Grandpa Aitken's during spring break.  So I laid perfectly still, not to wake up Matt who was sleeping so sweet next to me.  The next day I told him...
"You have no idea how quiet I can be!"
Him, "Your right...I don't! (followed by evil smirks and giggles and his arm covering his chest cause he knew he was going to get beat!)"  Implying that I never stop talking!

Pregnancy perk

Just before I realized I was prego I had already stopped biting my finger nails. Since 5 weeks I have completely stopped. No desire, no anxious feelings that cause me to want to tear them off, and I can't really bite through them.
Pretty nuts how quickly they grow too! I have to cut them at least 2x a week. And they get this long every time before cutting them.

19 weeks

"When are you going to have a REAL pregnant belly??" Matt says with a real sad voice. Then kisses my tummy and says bye to go do another round through the library.

Just an hour earlier he kissed my tummy and then me and said bye. It was the sweetest thing ever!

19 weeks

Today is the start of week 19! This is seriously going so much faster than I thought it was going to go.  I really didn't believe people when they said, "it's going to fly by."  "Nah you crazy" is what I thought.  Well they were right.

Also, we will be trying AGAIN to find out what we are cookin in the oven in just a week! I am going to try to keep calm and chill so the baby thinks that I'm just laying down on the bed.  Cause any time I'm laying on the bed baby wiggles a ton.  So I'm going to psych it out!

Hopefully next week I will have more news to add to this thing!

Matt's first interaction 18.5 weeks

Tonight Matt felt the baby move for the first time!!! We were laying down after a heck of a long day working. His day especially--10-5:30 pm Boyce Avenue security. We just needed a little time to relax.
When I lay really still--which is hard for me to do--I can feel the baby. So as I was feeling baby move I told Matt it was wiggling around and he put his hand on my tummy and said I feel it! Unless that's your heart. I knew it wasn't it was our little baby! I was so excited to finally have Matt feel included in this whole baby growing process!
