22 weeks: first baby prezzies

22 weeks and counting! I'm showing more and more now, but not as much as I thought... Guess one day I'll just wake up and have a huge bump. Good thing is that I've been feeling much better these days. I can actually cook and not get nauseous... and unlike in my first tri, I have more goals on a daily basis than just to keep my food down and take a shower :)

Our last doctor's appt (July 22) went well.. nothing abnormal going on, so that's a relief. I've made another ultrasound appt since they couldn't check out the baby's spinal cord last time. Shel thinks that the tech made a mistake at our first appt saying that it was a girl and expects them to tell us it's a boy next time... silly man. Although it's highly possible that they made a mistake, the tech seemed super sure it was a girl. So, anyway, we'll see...


We got our first baby prezzies... first was Uncle El who got us a onesie from his trip to Florida over the Indie holidays. Super cute! And this is really the first baby item we've gotten so it's special. Then just yesterday, our friends Joel and Ashley from Tucson gave us a super soft baby blankie from Pottery Barn Kids and a couple of dresses from Jack and Jane. Joel is in town for business and gave us the gifts yesterday... so generous of them! The dresses are adorable.

















If ever we had any doubts, getting baby clothes really makes it hit home that we are actually having a baby! And now that we've gotten girly clothes, the baby better be a girl because girly clothes are so sweet... :)

We finally cleared out the soon to be nursery, so we can start decorating it... but, we are not really settled on colors and such. So, hopefully soon, we can decide and make something happen there. So much to do.. :)
