Hi everybody! It's been awhile since we've posted anything and it certainly seems appropriate since we've reached a couple of major milestones. First of all, the baby started noticeably kicking and punching my insides on Christmas Eve morning. It was a very sweet thing to happen as presents were being opened at my parents' house. The feeling is indescribable and so reassuring. Now I'm just anxious for the kicks to get strong enough so Jesse can feel them too! Right now it's more like a tickle that makes me want to scratch the spot where I was kicked.
Last week we crossed over the 20 week mark! It's so hard to believe that we're halfway through this pregnancy. It's flying by and I'm trying to enjoy all the various phases, while still being super-excited to meet Little Bear in a few months.
A rounder belly is certainly noticeable now....and my belly button is doing weird things. There are some pants I can't wear and I notice that it can be tough to raise my knee up as high when putting on socks. Therapy friends, am I going to need a sock-aide eventually? :)
So with all that being said, here is a photographic update of Little Bear's progress going into week 21. Thanks for checking in!!

You look great, Erica! Little Bear is one lucky baby kicking around in there!!
ReplyDeleteYou do look great, Erica!!
ReplyDeleteI feel like this picture is a little rough, being that I had just gotten out of bed and all. I plan to look a little more put together for the next one. Murray is sure looking snazzy. I appreciate the love, ya'll! xo
ReplyDeleteIf you had an "innie" it might soon be an "outie"! Wondering if Jesse has felt any movement from Little Bear yet?
ReplyDeletehe hasn't felt movement yet...but hopefully really soon! and i definitely think i'm going to end up with an outie. it's well on it's way!!! can't wait to see you all in april!
