Half Way There!!

Well, I have finally reached the 20 week mark. It was actually Monday, but yeah I am moving a little slow at updating the blog. We went to the doctor on Friday and everything is going great. She said that I was measuring right on and I had even gained two pounds (I think it helped that I made sure to wear jeans and a sweater, as well as my watch and other jewlry). Andrew has basically been force feeding me when im not hungry. I'll just mention that something sounds delicious and he will get it for me. Today I went to the grocery store and when I came home and Andrew was going through the groceries he asks me, "Were you hungry while you were there?" Yeah, I was because I ended up with a loaf of french bread (so yummy to eat on the way home) and cheetos, tortilla chips and everything for homemade salsa. I originally went for milk and eggs and ended up with a cartload. I told Andrew that I think Jackson will LOVE mexican food. I crave mexican food AT LEAST 1 a week.
Anyways, I have my 20 week ultrasound next Friday (not tomorrow the following Friday). They are just going to check the growth of the baby and make sure that everything is good there. I don't mind, I love being able to see him! Speaking of Jackson, he is moving like crazy. Yesterday I had my hand on my belly and FINALLY felt him on the outside. Im pretty sure he just likes to kick straight out. Anyways, I told Andrew to come over and feel it and of course, he stops moving! Andrew was bummed, but hopefully within a couple of weeks his kicks will be harder all the time so we can feel him easier on the outside.
Well, thats all for now, I'll write again when i am bored.

Oh yeah he will kick harder and soon you will be able to feel all sorts of body parts. How are you feeling?

It's always fun to hear pregnancy updates. It's funny because you are half-way there and you still don't even look pregnant!

Brigham always did that. I would say, "Lincoln, come feel this" and he stopped. He still does it. HE never rolls over, laughs or anything for Lincoln. It's funny.

I totally craved chips and salsa the WHOLE time I was pregnant. I've been to every mexican restaurant in orem/provo. Chili's has the best chips and salsa if you are wondering.

Take care, glad it's going so well!
