24 weeks

Here are the pictures I took this morning. Technically at 24 weeks and 2 days.





These last few weeks have been going by so fast. I can't believe it is already September. Penguin will be here before we know it. We're still trying to decide on a name. So far we haven't had much luck with names that we both like. I don't know why boy names are so much harder. Last night I thought I had finally thought of the perfect name, until Argentinian pointed out to me that they (first and middle) were both city names. SO... I feel like I have a first name (well...maybe. it hasn't been agreed upon yet), and we still need a middle name too.

Other news, my mom will be coming to visit us next weekend, which is also my birthday (Friday). So that should be fun. I haven't seen her since the wedding, so it's been a while. So far we're planning to get some stuff for the baby taken care of, which will be nice. I just hope I have the energy for it.

Fast

This week has been going by pretty fast. I think it was because of the long weekend, and I had one less day I had to be at work.

Yesterday was my doctor's appointment. I'm now officially 24 weeks! These last few weeks seem to have gone by quickly. I mean, as individual days or whatever, slow, but as far as the pregnancy is concerned, it seems like it was just last week i had hit the halfway mark of 20 weeks. Now I'm a whole month past that. Crazy. The appointment went well, and we got our forms and everything for pre-registration at the hospital. As well as some brochures and everything to read through about what the hospital offered, and all of that. We are going to try to sign up sometime soon for a childbirth class, so that should be fun. I've begun to notice how big I've gotten. I don't always notice just looking down. But every once and a while, like last weekend when we went shopping, I catch my reflection from the side. Man! I'm bigger than I thought. And it's just going to keep on getting bigger.
