And we're half way there....... can't believe there are only four months to go. It really feels like only a couple weeks ago that Dave and I were in TCB and found out that we were expecting our little bundle of joy. You're daddy was extra sweet this week and surprised me with a 20 week massage appointment. It was just what I needed mid week with my lack of comfortable sleeping.
20 Weeks
What a fun week we had! Starting with my 20 week doctor's appointment. I was forewarned that it was a longer ultrasound and boy were they right, I was in there for about an hour where Linda my usual ultrasound tech measured every part of Baby Girl Walter. Great news from that day is that everything looks great and my pregnancy is looking good. So excited for that news and to be able to hit the gym and get active again - anything to make labor easier i'm up for! I found out that Baby Girl is in the 56th percentile, 13 ounces, and usually head down every time i'm at the dr's office. We also got some great pictures- which we will all really have to enjoy because it's the last ultrasound for at least two months.
such a cutie - look at her little nose and maybe a smile?
her hand and arm
I think those are her legs but that's a complete guess
Moving on to the weekend, we had a great girls night/highschool reunion with my Barrington Girls. We had a delicious dinner at Boarding House and then went out to Sprout for drinks afterward. While at dinner Rena had an exciting announcement that she and Tyler are expecting baby #2. It was really fun to have a girls night, I love love love these girls and feel truly blessed to have such long and wonderful friendships.
From L to R: Britini, Kelley, Rena, Jess, Me, Jenny, Megan
Our busy weekend continued for your mommy and daddy, Saturday we headed out to hopefully finalize a car for your arrival and we did! We ended up buying a BMW X3, which your daddy is definitely really happy about because he really likes driving that car the most out of everything we looked at! I'm so excited to have more room in the car, an actual trunk and space for all the things i'm sure we'll need when you arrive!
I've started planning the nursery but haven't gotten very far other than the color pallet we want to use. I'll include a little sneak peak as far as the theme goes, it's something that we are really excited about and think it will be really unique for Baby Girl's nursery.
