20 weeks!

Wow -  a lot has happened since I last wrote, which I'll detail in another post, but I wanted to get this post up, as I am 20 weeks pregnant with baby girl!  In each of my past 2 pregnancies, I have taken pictures every 2 weeks documenting my growth (and consequently the baby growth as well!)  This time around, I have been avoiding the pictures as I was afraid to see how I would turn out in comparison.  I feel that I have grown soooo much quicker this time around, and I was guessing I was maybe around week 28 size from Reid's pregnancy.  I'm within 1 pound of where I was at with Reid at this point and I have been working out and feeling overall better for a couple of weeks now so that is all promising.  It's just truly amazing what pregnancy does to a body and makes me realize, once again, how amazing God is!


The largest version of me is from this current pregnancy.  Micah is top right and Reid is bottom right.  While I am the largest here of the 3, it's not near as drastic as I felt it might be with Reid.  Clearly Micah is no question :)  When looking at past pregnancy pictures from the boys, I was reminded of how much larger I will be getting - which is a little daunting, haha.  But to feel the baby inside of me and know what an amazing little miracle will be occurring in less than 20 weeks now, I'm humbled that God has given me this opportunity once again and grateful to have a little girl growing healthily away inside my belly.

I'm praying the next 20 weeks will go well and I'll be able to manage keeping up with my two active boys before the sleep deprivation of a newborn hits!  Fun stages of life!!
