Week 22 coming to a close.

So, here I am at the end of week 22!

Not much exciting has happened. I've been feeling pretty good, just tired. Most mornings I wake up forgetting I'm pregnant. I wake up and I just don't feel it anymore. It's so strange. I've been trying to think of new experiences or feelings. Well, I really been starting to feel baby girl kick, even from the outside. It's such an amazing feeling, and I love it. Sometimes I'll drink a little OJ and try to make her move just because I love feeling her, it's such an amazing feeling. And, with this new experience, this has suddenly become much more real to me. In about 17 weeks we will have our baby girl in our arms. I'm starting to freak out with the amount of things we need to do around the house to prepare for her arrival!! I feel like there is so much to do, and not enough time to get it done! But, I'm sure everything will get done in time.

This past Monday we had our fetal echo done. Our little girl was moving all around! The tech was able to get pretty much all the images she needed, there were just two the tech couldn't get, so the doctor tried, she could only get one of the two. But, her heart looks great! The doctor didn't see anything to worry about, and everything was still looking great! Plus, we found out she weighs a whopping 1 lb 3 oz! Next ultrasound is set for the end of the month! It's so wonderful to see her!
