Pregnancy - Week 21

Week 21 of Pregnancy!  It feels crazy that I'm now over halfway through my pregnancy.  It really has flown by.  It has been such a special time in our lives.  Finding out we're having a son last week makes it more real, in both an exciting and slightly scary way.  Before we knew it was a boy, we were having a baby.  Babies are cute and fun.  Now we're having a son and that implies raising another human being and that's slightly scary :)  It's also super exciting because now we can picture Brandon teaching our son all kinds of manly things like sports and imagining the kind of man he'll grow up to be. 

On Monday for Halloween, I dressed up as a Bun in the oven Bakery worker and won third place at my work costume contest.  It was cute and I had fun, too. 

More exciting things coming soon, we are going to Memphis next weekend to buy our nursery furniture.  And Babies R Us is having a sale on nursery furniture, so we're going to save over $100!  I'm so glad to finally be working on the nursery a little.  I know I have plenty of time, but I'm such a planner, I want to have everything perfect long before Aiden arrives.   

This week Aiden is about the size of a banana and is 10 1/2 inches long and weighs around 12 ounces.  He now has eyebrows and eyelids.  I've been feeling more movements and I've noticed that he's more active after I eat.  It's so cool to be able to really be able to feel him kicking!
