Recently I have been finalizing the registries (still have to add a few things though) and getting a few goodies for myself (maternity clothes) and Forrest some goodies :) baby clothes and accessories are so dang cute, it is hard to pass them up!
Next week (Nov. 18) we will have Forrest's 20 week sonogram where they will look at all of his insides and we will get a more accurate due date. We are excited to see what he is up to and then Nov. 23 we have our 20 week check up with the doctor!
Speaking of seeing what Forrest is up to I have been feeling Forrest moving and grooving a lot lately! I first felt him Wednesday Oct. 20th I had a sweet tea a little earlier and I was about to take a bath and I felt something move up and down towards my ribs. It literally made me laugh...at first I just though it was gas but then it was constant movement and I knew it was Forrest letting his presence be known! Then last week (Tuesday Nov. 2nd) I felt Forrest move for the first time from outside my stomach and Phil even got to feel him just a little bit though. I have felt him before but just little thumps here and there. This past weekend though Forrest really decided that he would let us know hes in there, by kicking a little bit harder, so much that when looking at my stomach you can see my skin move up, Phil got to feel him do one of the big kicks and he got so excited, grinning ear to ear! It is so amazing to feel him moving around in there and especially feeling him from the outside, it is an unexplainable feeling!!! Forrest is really active between 7-9 at night when I am relaxing watching tv, and especially if I am laying on my back!
I have been feeling really great but occasionally still getting pretty tired but have pretty much regained my energy (no more 8:00 bed time! Hooray!) Phil is doing great too and getting eager to meet our little man!
Okay so now for belly pics!
Both of these pictures were taken today of each side at 18 weeks and 6 days !
That's it for now! I will update everyone again next week after the sonogram with new pics, so be sure to check back next Friday (Nov. 19th)
Love you all!
Court, Phil and Forrest
