21 weeks pregnant

My body
I continue to feel good, but did feel more tired this week. I think it has more to do with my busy schedule these past weeks and less to do with being pregnant. I am surprised to be at the point where strangers ask me when I am due. Honestly, I was always so fearful that a person wouldn't actually be pregnant, that I would never ask. That being said, I am happy to tell the strangers my due date. After talking to a friend of mine, I realize that the "hip pain" I have been complaining about is the sciatic nerve that I have always heard about. I thought it would feel different, which is why I didn't recognize it as this. This pain continues to bother me at night, but is still alleviated easily and I am very thankful for that. This baby is moving moving moving. I feel the "flutters," which I think feel more like a "flop" all the time. Right now, the baby seems to sleep when I sleep, which is very nice of him or her:) Any chances it will stay that way????
The baby

What we are up to
Jonathan is so excited about this weather because he can finally get back in his boat this weekend. I am excited about it, but for the same reasons everyone else is excited about it. This past week, I took a trip to Louisville with the girls to see Teresa's beautiful new home. We had a really nice time visiting with Lauren who is still in town from Seattle. Also, I am honored to have been asked to be in my oldest friends wedding. Gina is getting married March 5Th, 2010, so the planning has begun. She asked me before we attended a mass at the church where she will get married next year, St. Barbaras. I am very excited to be a part of her big day! Last, Jonathan and I have plans to register this weekend at Babies R Us...I have a feeling it might be a daunting task.

  1. Just to warn you...it might take more than one trip! I went with my sister-in-law for round 2 of registering and if you pick everything that Babies R' Us tells you that you "need" on the little list they provide, you will have registered for the whole store!
