19 Weeks

Week 19 has been an exciting week for many reasons!  I took this pic right before I took off to a family reunion in New Orleans.  I've got lots of great pics to share in a later blog post about that trip, but in the mean time I'll fill you in on lil nugget and me.  We're doing great!  Appetite is back in full swing (minus chicken still), and he/she is growing at a fast pace.  Baby Taylor is 6 inches, about the size of an heirloom tomato, and about 8.5 oz.  My belly officially does not fit into regular jeans...I finally bought two pairs of maternity jeans, one from H&M and the other from Motherhood, and they are ooooooooooohhhh so comfy.  Me and elastic are currently bff's. 

THE BIG NEWS?!  I felt the baby kick over the weekend...it's been very subtle; it just feels like little bubbles popping, but it's the first time I've actually felt the baby and I was so excited!  The other BIG NEWS? We find out the sex this Friday and I'm counting down the days!!
