Houston...we have movement!

The start of week 19 brings baby movements and a bigger belly!  I haven't felt too much yet but I'm definitely noticing it more.  Not much of the flutter that I've read about but more like a little muscle twitch.  I've tried to lay down quietly to see if I can feel movement but I usually fall asleep :)

My 20 week ultrasound appointment is this Friday!!  Cross your fingers Mayhem cooperates.

We got dressed up last night and went out for a really nice dinner.  We went to Tiburon and it was fabulous.  Of course the wall of wine when we walked in was a little sad but we will definitely be back.  I had the beef tenderloin and Andy tried the house specialty of Elk.  So good!  The drive home was even exciting.  We were stopped at a light and all of a sudden we hear a crunch next to us in the right turn lane.  I thought the guy got rear ended but his tire actually fell off!!!!  It rolled right around our car just like a cartoon.  So crazy.  He wasn't even driving a clunker.  So glad no one was hurt and that he was going slow and coming to a stop.  If he'd been on the freeway it would have been really bad. 

We're pretty much done registering which wasn't quite as overwhelming thanks to my lovely sister-in-law Katie.  She was nice enough to take Andy and I on a walk through when we were home last weekend and help us figure out what we need.  We're going pretty gender neutral but we're waiting to register for bedding, jammies etc until we know if it's yellow flowers or yellow stripes/dots.

Cali and baby were also officially introduced this week.  As most of you know, Cali thinks she is a lap dog instead of 85 lbs.  Either laying in bed or on the couch she loves to pretty much lay on top of you and she must have a paw on you at all times.  Since her paws seem to weigh 10 lbs each it's like she's punching you.  This is coming to an end quickly as my tummy gets bigger.  Cal had her head on my stomach so I introduced her to the baby and told him/her that he/she will have plenty of time to punch back when he/she gets older :)

We've got a busy weekend so I'm just hoping the week goes fast.  I've got my normal 20 week appt on Thursday, the big 20 week anatomy appointment on Friday, Andy runs his 3rd marathon on Saturday morning and then we're going to have a little get together Saturday afternoon to celebrate the marathon, enjoy the hot tub and hopefully reveal the pink/blue status of our little one.  Stay tuned!

Till next week!
Love,
Lexi and Andy
