Week 21

I can't believe I'm 'over the hill', so to speak. I'm still feeling great with the exception of being a bit tired, although this time change is killing me. I haven't recovered from losing an hour of sleep over the weekend, but I can't really complain. I feel good otherwise.

BG is about 12 ounces this week and about 10 1/2 inches long. I can really feel her kicks, punches and flips now. She's quite active - especially after I eat. This girl loves food - kind of like someone else I know :-)

My mom and sister came up this weekend and we did some baby shopping. They couldn't resist being the first to buy some of BG's first outfits. My mom bought her a 3 month old onesie that is covered in pink and red strawberries - very cute. My sister bought her 'babies first bikini'. Totally adorable. I didn't take a picture of her first onesie, but here is a pic of the bikini.

I was so exhausted from shopping this weekend. We shopped for about 5 hours and it took me an entire day to recover. Of course, my mom could have shopped for 5 more hours. When we got home I was complaining of my feet really hurting. They weren't swollen or anything, but just hurt. I managed to get a nice foot rub from Aaron that night and another one on Sunday. When I put my shoes on for work this week I realized why my feet hurt so bad. They totally SPREAD! My leather shoes were now tight! Not good. For those of you who don't know, I already have MASSIVE feet and don't want to go up a size, or have them get any wider (although I'd prefer to have them be a little wider instead of longer). If this keeps up, I'll look like I have flippers on the ends of my legs.

Here's a pic from this week. I skipped my photo last week. You didn't miss much. I can't tell a difference between the two weeks. I almost feel like I look less pregnant here than at 19 weeks. Camera angle must make all the difference.
