22 weeks tomorrow!

I will be 22 weeks pregnant tomorrow! Wow! Time is just flying by! Things are going well and I really can't complain. I do feel particularly fat today (I washed my jeans and now they are not buttoning as easily as before), but other than that I feel good.

The little guy is still just kicking away. I feel him at least once every day. Usually when I feel it I feel a few kicks in a row. MrKLB actually got to feel him kick on Thursday night! We were laying in bed and I was feeling him kick and MrKLB put his hand on my stomach and all of a sudden he kicked! MrKLB jerked his hand away and said "Whoa! I felt it!" It was really strange for him, but also amazing. More than seeing my belly grow and more than hearing the heartbeat on the doppler or seeing the images from the ultrasound, this was his first real interaction with his son. Really cool. Oh, I actually felt him kick just now! (Seems to be common after lunch!)

MrKLB and I stopped by a consignment sale on Thursday afternoon and bought 4 cute little things for the baby. We got 2 polo shirts and 2 polo onesies. They are so cute and MrKLB was so proud that his son will be so well dressed. LOL! We got each of them for $5 so that was the best part! Also, we had a coupon for carseats at Babies R Us so we went there on Friday and ended up getting an infant car seat. Then we took it home and practiced putting it in the car. MrKLB is really funny... he keeps carrying the thing around the house and talking about how his little baby will be in there soon. I can tell he is really excited. We actually call him by name now when we're alone, but we're keeping the name a secret until he is born so I have to be careful not to type it here. :)

I'm supposed to be heading up to NYC for work this afternoon but I'm not sure if I'll make it. We actually got several inches of snow here yesterday and the northeast is supposed to be getting dumped on today. So, we'll see if my flight actually takes off or gets canceled. I wish they would cancel it BEFORE I go to the airport if that's the case, but I guess I'll just have to wait and see. Anyway, assuming I make it I'll be in NYC through Wednesday night.

That's all for now. Moving on to week 23!

  1. Um, if you are wearing non-maternity jeans that button at 22 weeks, you are NOT fat! I feel fat just reading that :-) I'm glad things are going well. Isn't feeling the kicks amazing?
