Yes, Us Webbed Toe People Can Have Pedicures!

Ok, I'm going to show my dorky side, I sometimes check to see what keyword phrases people type into google to find my blog...

Someone actually googled "can people with webbed toes get pedicures"? Seriously? Wow! In case anyone else is curious, the answer is yes! :)

My freshly pedicured toes are on the right. :)

Kicking My Bladder and a Miracle Pill! 21 Weeks

I guess I've been feeling Mcbaby for a couple of weeks now but last Sunday I was sure of it and yelled for Jared to come feel him! He kicked a few times for his daddy but since then Mcbaby has found it more amusing to kick my bladder making my bathroom run count RIDICULOUS!

babycenter.com says:
Your baby now weighs about three-quarters of a pound and is approximately 10 1/2 inches long — the length of a carrot. You may soon feel like he's practicing martial arts as he initial fluttering movements turn into full-fledged kicks and nudges. You may also discover a pattern to his activity as you get to know her better. In other developments, your baby's eyebrows and lids are present now, and if you're having a girl, her vagina has begun to form as well.

Mommy News: 
  • While I have way more energy then the first trimester I do get tired quickly.
  • I've never slept well but it has gotten worse with my many tinkle trips and having to be careful when sleeping on my stomach. 
  • I experienced my first case of heartburn!! OMG! I thought I was dieing and since Jared nor I have ever had heartburn we didn't have any TUMS in the house. So one night last weekend from around 9:30 PM until 3:00 AM I was in agony! Needless to say we are now fully stocked in that miracle pill, TUMS! :)

PS. I keep finding out more and more friends are pregnant so if you haven't told me yet please let me know when your due date is and what your having! We'll add you to our prayer list! :)

I'm Half Way There, 20 Wks!

We had our 20 week ultrasound and doctors appointment this week. This "would be" when we find out the gender but we cheated and went to Virgina College, see A Tiny Penis is Growing Inside Me. (BTW> Don't tell real ultrasound people you went to Virgina College to get a free ultrasound... they get a little scrappy!) Mom, Papa and Katie came to the big show! We are so glad they came, we ran into Dr. Gregory in the elevator so they were able to meet my doctor too! :)

He is a confirmed BOY!

I didn't take pics during our yummy brunch at Another Broken Egg so oh well... it was funny that we all ordered different things. The Eggs Benedict (an English muffin, our finest ham & two medium poached eggs, covered with our creamy hollandaise & chopped chives) and Cinnamon roll french toast (thick slices from our cinnamon roll, grilled w/ our famous french toast batter, layered with warm cream cheese icing, topped w/ banana’s foster sauce, a mix of warm berries & whipped cream) were delicious!

I'll upload the ultrasound pics later... Jared left them in Papa's truck after they played golf. :)
