Weeks 17 & 18

I'm finally starting to show!!!! It is very exciting! I catch Nicholas looking at my belly sometimes and I ask, "Are you looking at your baby?" He is so sweet! We have had a very busy last few weeks. Nicholas has a brand new job (he starts on Monday) and I've been working daily in my classroom getting it all ready for the August 21st start date. This past weekend we took a long weekend trip to visit our Godparents, Scott and Heather in Baltimore. We were able to see Heather's new house and a lot of downtown Baltimore. On Monday, Mimzey, Great Grams, Great Aunt Kathy and Cousin Maria (future babysitter) flew in for a visit. We spent the day with family around Baltimore. We even stopped in a shop and found the PERFECT rocker for the baby's nursery! Thanks to Mimzey it's made it's way to Pickerington where it is getting some much needed "warm up" rocks.

Baby Montgomery is ~7 inches long and weighs ~6 oz. I haven't felt any movement yet...but I imagine I'll feel him/her soon. Nicholas and I go for our BIG APPOINTMENT on Sept. 6th at 8:15am!!! As long as the baby feels like sharing we should then know if we're having a little boy or a little girl!!!! Mark you calendars....I'll try to blog that day at school but it might not get posted until later that evening.
