21 weeks 4 days

Holy moly! How have I not posted on here in such a long time? Insanity, I tell you! Currently I am 21w4d and feeling every bit of it. I have never been so excited for Thanksgiving in my life (foooooooooooood!) and I feel like I'm counting down for that more than Ryan's big debut! I'm sure after it passes, I'll be able to concentrate on more important things :)  Currently, I am still in school and trying my hardest to not get too excited about other things. This has by far been one of my hardest semesters....all because my mind is every where else except where it needs to be. I guess there is a good reason for that, though! 

We had our anatomy scan almost 2 weeks ago and as excited as I was for it, it was torture! What the hell What To Expect When You're Expecting--thanks for telling me that passing out during an ultrasound 'is normal'--OH WAIT, you didn't! I had a really hard time even getting through the whole ordeal and we still didn't get all the measurements of this little dude like we should've SO- extra ultrasound in 2 weeks to get those measurements! I thought I would be happy about the extra pictures but really, I'm nervous of the same out come of the last one! It was pretty ridiculous. I thought it was the waffles and grape juice I drank before the appointment to get him moving.

As for everything else, we are doing well! This dude is kicking me as I type this, in fact. I still cannot believe we have made it to this point. Saying we feel blessed is the understatement of the year! We are beyond blessed-- purely a miracle!

18 weeks! (tomorrow)

I would never had though in a million years that I would be at 18 weeks (this picture was from our NT at 12 weeks)! Crazy thought! On top of being 18 weeks, we are (read that: The Husband is) painting our front room for our little dude. It looks awesome and I can't wait to start getting things together. This whole school thing sure is getting in the way of becoming a new mom. This weekend was definitely a busy weekend for us. Besides the painting that is getting done, our new crib that the in-laws bought came in. While I went to Target, The Husband and his dad went to pick it up. I LOVE IT! We were looking at our calendar and after this weekend, we are almost booked solid! There is so much fall and holiday stuff...I can hardly contain myself. I'm glad we are able to get this stuff done now or we'd be in January/February trying to get everything together. Funny how time becomes very relative when the holidays come around!
