20 weeks, Half Way There!

5 months down, 5 more to go!  


Baby is growing like a weed lately! Or at least my belly is :-)  And little baby V is an active little one.  Keeping me company and constantly reminding me he/ she's in there.  Last night we went to see Hunger Games 2 and at all of the really loud noises and action scenes I got a swift kick straight to the bladder.  One of them caused me to jump out of my chair.  Maybe no more action movies... 

This week Baby is the size of a banana, or about 6-6.5 inches from crown to rump.  Baby's bones continue to harden (which makes the kicks stronger and stronger) and Baby's skin is thickening and forming two layers, the epidermis and the dermis.  As for me, lately I can't seem to get enough water, I'm always so thirsty.  Getting hungrier more often, but craving healthy things right now with lots of nutrients.  Ironically, bananas are my biggest craving of late :-) 

In other news, we close escrow on our new home today!!! Can't wait to get settled in, although we'll have to wait a little longer since the previous owners are sticking around up to an extra 10 days until their new home is ready.

Can't wait to finally find out if we're having a girl or boy!  Reveal party is this Sunday (the 15th) at Grandma Janine's house at 3PM.  If you haven't done so already let me know if you'll be joining us.  Look forward to sharing such a fun and special moment with everyone!
