Halfway There

Yesterday was the halfway point. It's all downhill from here -- to the birth and meeting our little bundle of joy!

Not much to report. I think a few times I've felt the baby move, but nothing definitive yet. As much as I want to feel it, I'm trying to enjoy the little bit I have left before this kid starts going ninja-style on my insides.

I finished reading a book about writing a birth plan and now have to actually sit down and write one. Adam and I also need to start thinking about registering for baby goods and decide what we plan to do with the spare bedroom.

I finished making my maternity shirt this weekend. It turned out pretty well, I think.

Overall, I've been feeling pretty good. I can tell my abs are stretching more because I can feel them ache a bit in my lower abdomen, where they are now holding up my little belly.

Speaking of bellies, I hope to have an updated picture up soon. With my dad's visit, things got hairy and getting the camera out was overlooked. As far as I can tell, it hasn't changed much since the last picture, but I was reading today that I could wake up at any point and find myself with an engorged, protruding belly that appears out of nowhere.

But we've made it halfway. Unbelievable!
