halfway! 20 weeks

The first half of this pregnancy has gone pretty fast and the way our schedule looks over the next few months, I'm pretty sure the second half will fly by as well. 

Some details from the past few weeks:

-I continue to feel awesome. so thankful!

-My nap days are pretty much over (as in I don't feel like I HAVE to take a nap... but sometimes I still do :)

-I felt the baby moving around for the first time during week 19. Chad got to feel it too. Crazy!! About 2 days ago, I could just look down and see my belly moving. So strange and exciting.

-So far I'm still wearing all my normal clothes. Although most of my pants I have to wear with a rubber-band through the belt loop. 
Think I can make it until I get back to the US? About 8.5 more weeks? Then I'm thinking a mother/daughter shopping day is in order :) what do you think, Mom? 

-I had an awesome 19 week appointment when we were in Delhi on the way home from Nepal. Everything looked great with the baby! 

-As I mentioned we weren't able to find out the sex of the baby while we were in Nepal. So now we have about 8 weeks to decide if we want to find out when we get home in August or just wait and be surprised (I mean, we will have already waited 30 weeks). We're still debating...

-Here are some belly shots from the past few weeks
-We really appreciate your prayers for a healthy baby and pregnancy!

adorable! can't believe you're halfway there! I think it is a girl and that you should just wait till SHE is born to find out for sure :)
