So we are officially 4 months pregnant this week! I can hardly believe it - well, in some ways I can when I think back to how sick I was for the first three months, but in all honestly, I cannot believe I am writing today about being 16 weeks pregnant... at some level, this is all still VERY surreal.
What an amazing week... while reading some pregnancy books, I discovered that beginning the 16th week, mom's can begin to feel the baby move. When I woke up on Saturday morning, I had a mild case of the butterflies (it literally felt like little flutters in my stomach!). It only lasted but a few moments, but it was such a fun, amazing experience!! On Saturday, Grandma Dot, Aunt Katie and I started shopping for the nursery... since our little pumpkin is going to be a surprise, we were shopping for both a girl and a boy! While shopping, we randomly came across the most amazing, antique crib (Dot found it!) and we all new it was just perfect... so thank you Grandma and Grandpa Gross for buying us our first nursery piece!! I absolutely LOVE it and know that it is going to be adorable in the baby's room (I will post pictures when we get into our house)! We also found the fabrics we love for a little girl's room and we have SOME ideas for a little boy's... we are meeting with the woman making everything in late March, so we still have some time to put things together.... We also found out that we are moving in less than ONE MONTH!! We cannot wait to get into our new home and start preparing for our baby's arrival - what a true blessing that the Lord has provided us a house, truly a HOME, to bring our baby home to... we are so humbled!
