21 Weeks - The Halfway Point

I am now 21 weeks! Today actually marks the halfway point of the actual pregnancy. My pregnancy journal says that the baby sucks its thumb every once in awhile now but we have yet to see that on ultrasound...even though we get one every time we go. As I am typing, I can feel the baby moving around. The best times are when the baby decides to rearrange itself (which usually happens right after I decide to lay down) and I can feel the different parts of the baby's body moving under my hand. It is incredible. My waist has grown almost an inch in the past week bringing it to 34 inches.

We just got back from visiting Jeremy's mom and husband in St. Augustine from Wednesday, July 4th, until Friday night. It was alot of fun and we were able to see the fireworks right over the bay. They were amazing. We were also able to visit our friends Carin and Mike and their family and Jeremy's aunt and cousin. On our way back from St. Augustine, we stopped at the Motherhood outlet store and I bought a new sundress. We also stopped at Babies R Us, since we don't have one here, and made sure we liked all the stuff we picked out online. We received a free gift box with lots of great baby stuff in there. My friend Cassie sent me a lullaby CD for the baby which is so precious. I am continuing to clean out my closets to make room for the little one. ;) We still haven't decided on a boy or girl name yet but we plan to go to Borders and look through their books soon.
