There's no hiding it now!

I have surpassed the "Is she just getting fat, or is she pregnant??" stage. There should be no question when people look at me now...LOL!

Getting bigger everyday

Now that I'm starting to show more, I catch people staring at my belly all the time. People who know I'm pregnant are fascinated with my growing tum-tum; people who don't know me are starting to give off that "Is she fat or pregnant?" stare. I'm kind of self-conscious about it (since this is the first time in my life that I've been a full-figured lady), but I mostly find it amusing. I haven't had many people want to rub my belly yet, which is good. I don't mind showing people, but I get kind of uncomfortable when people touch it. Maybe when the baby is a little bigger and actually occupies my whole mid-section I'll be more comfortable with people touching me. Right now I feel most of his kicks in my lower abdomen, so when people rub my belly, they're probably not getting much but fat!

Jason and I are going to visit his mom in Tempe, AZ next month. I'm so excited! I know I'll be 6 months pregnant, and flying probably won't be too much fun, but I can't wait to go out there. It'll be nice to get away for a few days before Seth gets here.

IT'S A BOY!!!!

I've been so busy posting my news everywhere else that I've neglected my blog!

I had my 20-week ultrasound last week, and Jason and I found out that we're having a boy!!! We were so thrilled with the news - and also with the whole experience of the ultrasound itself. It was so neat seeing his hands and feet and head on the screen. Made everything that much more real. We've decided to name him Seth, and we're already calling him by his name when we talk about him. :-) He's been a very active baby lately, and when I lie on my back, we can see him swimming around and kicking in my belly. Such a cool feeling! I'm completely fascinated with it and can lie in bed for hours just feeling him move.

I love my baby boy.
