19 Weeks

19 weeks 2 days. That leaves 146 more days :) This week, Baby Hall will grow to 6.5 inches and 10.6 ounces. Roughly the size of a small cantaloupe.

I was able to feel the baby move this past week. Honestly, I think I felt the baby the week before, but it's hard to tell what is baby and what isn't! We have even gotten some strong kicks that Kevin was able to feel too. I have noticed that Baby Hall likes it when I eat because he or she moves around a lot then. Baby is also very active when I'm trying to sleep which makes falling asleep a bit difficult.

18 weeks

18 weeks. Only 153 more days to go. According to the books, Baby Hall is 6 inches and 8.5 ounces. Apparently that is the size of a heirloom tomato - who knew? We went to the doctor last week and all is still going well. Though my belly size is roughly the same as last week, I've gained 4 pounds so far. The doctor seems fine with that number, so that's good.

Yes, we are still undecided about if we are going to find out the gender or not :)

17 Weeks

17 weeks down, 23 weeks to go.

Nothing much different from last week, including my size :)

My cravings in the past few weeks include ANYTHING fried and pickles. I try to limit the fried food, but sometimes you really just need an onion blossom. Or fried chicken. Or fried pickles, which covers both cravings!

Have you noticed how Rocco has to be in every picture of me? I try to rush and get the picture taken before he follows me, but he's always there! At least this time he was looking at the camera :)

16 Weeks

I'm going to have to teach Kevin how to take better pictures :)
