The nursery is painted!

Patrick and I spent our weekend painting our little boys room. We had lots of fun doing it! Every little thing we do makes the whole experience a little more real! Our little boy will be here to enjoy his pretty (and unfinished at this point!) room in a little over 3 months. Sorry the picture is a little dark, but we wanted to share anyway!

15 more weeks!

I am still in disbelief at how quickly this pregnancy is flying by! It seems every week goes by a little faster, and with the holidays on the way Will is going to be here before we know it! The little guy is as active as ever these days. Every night when Patrick and I get in bed he has boxing practice inside Mommy's tummy! It is funny because it is like clockwork, from about 9:15 to 9:30 he moves around and then he settles back down. Daddy is loving it since he can finally feel him and see him through my tummy (which is also growing daily as you can see!)
We had another ultrasound last week and got some awesome pictures! Will looks like a real little person, it is so amazing!

What a strong little boy!

Friday night as I was laying in bed I felt Will kicking VERY hard! So, I looked down at my stomach and saw this little something (arm, foot, elbow?) protruding through my stomach! It was a very weird thing to see, but SO neat! I yelled for Patrick to come and OF COURSE by the time he got there Will was completely still....maybe next time!

We've got a 1 pounder!

What a milestone our little boy has reached! All of my books and websites say that around 22 weeks the baby reaches 1 pound! He is also about 8.4 inches (and that is from the top of his head to his bottom ~ no legs included!) His eyes can respond to light (we read we can put a flashlight to my belly and he will recognize it) and his ears respond to sounds from outside the uterus.
Will seems to be getting on a schedule with me....he kicks and moves in the morning when I wake up, again after lunch and always at night before bed! So far he is not waking me up at night, but I realize he has some growing to do!
