18 weeks!

Taken today at 18 weeks!

We are only 2 weeks away from half way! Crazy how fast this whole thing is going!

Our sonogram is 5 days away and our gender reveal party is 9 days away! I'm SO excited to see if we are having a boy or a girl!! It's all I can think about!

At 18 weeks the baby is 5.6 inches long and 6.7oz! Man this baby is growing fast!

Baby is yawning, hiccuping, sucking and swallowing according to TheBump.com and is the approximate size of a sweet potato.

Josh and I were laying in bed Sunday morning and he had his hand on my stomach and the baby kicked his hand twice! Josh couldn't feel it but I could and it was pretty darn cool! I'm excited for the baby's kicks to get harder so Josh can start feeling them.

Last night at youth group Pastor Lori told me that the church wants to throw me a baby shower on May 11th. It's mother's day weekend and they thought that fit well! I'm excited for my first mother's day weekend and the shower!

My dear friend Leah Griffith gave me a bunch of maternity clothes and I tried on some of the clothes last night. I was so excited when I put on a pair of maternity pants and they fit perfectly! You're darn right I'm wearing them today and I'll probably be living in them until I get some more pants. They are so comfortable! Don't get me wrong the belly band was great for keeping my pants up and getting to wear my prepreg jeans unbuttoned but I'm just getting too big for that and it got old having to adjust it constantly.
