end of week 23!

So pregnant life is wonderful. The most exciting part of my day is feeling the baby move, and the trying to get Adam's hand on my belly in enough time for him to feel too. Over the past few days I've actually seen my stomach thump up when the baby has kicked - which is amazing. Overall I feel better now than I did before I was pregnant. My feet have not been swelling - I credit that to our new ONLY water beverage diet, and walking everyday that I can. Lately I've been feeling under the weather, and tonight the weather is not cooperating and I almost feel guilty that I'm not walking! I've come to love it! My next appointment is in a week & a half, on May 18th. This shall be the day we know once & for all if this is truly a baby boy or not. We're still 99% convinced it is a boy, I think the doctor was just rushing. If there is still any question, I won't hesitate to ask them to switch it to the 4D sonogram so we can know for sure before I leave that doctors visit. Four week after that appointment I'll have my 28 week visit, and then I'll start going every 2 weeks I believe. I hear that is when the pregnancy really starts flying. I can't wait to meet this baby so I'm ready for turbo speed. We put the first coat of primer on the nursery wall. I tried to help as much as I could but the fumes were too much, and Adam's being awesome about it. We've decided to paint the room khaki instead of chocolate brown. We realized with brown walls & dark wood furniture our baby would be living in a bear cave. Maybe he'd sleep a lot then?! But we think with the khaki walls, plus the AWESOME tree decal [8 ft x 8 ft = the whole wall!] we found, the nursery is going to be the coolest. I painted the used side table we got from a friend the chocolate brown so it will go along with the "espresso" wood furniture. If we end up getting the bedding we picked out, we will stick with the green and yellow accents in the curtains, lamp shade, and glider cushion. All of it's so exciting!!! Whether this baby turns out to be a boy or girl, we feel so blessed.
