Half Way There

We're halfway there!! Here I am at 22 weeks...black isn't all that revealing I guess, but there's no doubt there's a baby in there.

Hello Stella Kate

Ms. Stella Kate is doing a lot of kicking these days.  Her feet are definitely down because I only feel her tapping on my bladder and no where else. She's pretty active when I eat & late at night. It's kind of amazing!! I'm ready for full-on movement. The sporadic kicks are cool though.

We registered this weekend. It was pretty fun, but also a reality check that she'll be here before we know it. I'm getting closer to room decisions. I know which crib we're getting & we picked up her dresser today, but that's about it. I love this amazing rug from Anthropolgie, but I haven't made it to the fabric store to pick bedding fabric. Once I get to that point, I'll be more on track. It's not surprising that I am having trouble deciding on what I want. I'm trying to be as reasonable as possible, but reasonable is not really in my purchasing vocabulary.

All of the stuff I said we were doing in my last blog...none of it happened. No Adele...she's not coming...skank. No Thursday concerts at the Arboretum...I've been too stinking busy/tired. Race for the Cure...it just didn't work out. Slacker is what I'm feeling like. I have been so sleepy that by 8:00 I'm ready to call it a night. I couldn't even start, much less finish my book club book, so I powered through it in one week on audiobooks (thank god for 6hrs in the car to Austin & back). I really feel good during the day and have energy, but when I stop, that's it!!

One of our good friends gave us some baby stuff...it's now Roxy approved. We might have jealousy issues or they'll be best friends.

I turned it on and everything...she's down with it :)
Dogs and baby...I really hope they don't flip!!

It's Confirmed!

Baby Girl Williams it is!!! Not much to report except that we're doing great at 20 weeks! Been feeling little kicks for a couple of weeks now (just little flutters & bubbles).

This baby needs a name...Daddy, just agree to whatever mommy says :)

No doubt...it's not a boy

I'm super excited that I can finally start putting things together for her room...Name to be announced as soon as we agree on one. Which could be today...or...the day she arrives. My vote is...if I have to give birth to her and go through pregnancy I should get my pick!

I'm loving this fall weather! Lots of outside time to come. Thursday concerts in the garden at the Arboretum, Adele in a few weeks, and Dallas Race for the Cure are a few of our upcoming events. I hope to throw in a little ATX time next weekend. Haven't been down since Mother's Day :/

Congrats to my sister on her new job with the American Red Cross as a Disaster Services Specialist! Katie moved to San Angelo this past weekend.

Until then...
