momma & baby...20 weeks

...

and we're so excited.

seeing him move around was the most incredible sight i've ever seen.
i've fallen in love with the little guy already!

our little timmer weighs right around 10 oz. and is about 8 inches long - which apparently means that we are measuring right on track with our due date.

oh and i'm totally okay with the fact that i was wrong and brett (and pretty much everyone else) was right. i'll try to scan the ultrasound pictures and post some within the next couple days.

A Busy November

I can't believe it's already November. I'm just about halfway through my pregnancy (what...already!?!), the holidays are right around the corner, and so much is going on this month.

I just got back from a 10-day trip to Hawaii with my 2 best friends, Sarah and Lyndsey, and it was such a great time. I'm sure I could take up quite a bit of this blog post with all the fun, relaxing and crazy times we had, but instead, I'll just post a couple of pictures.

The pictures include:

* a hike into Green Sands Beach

* snorkeling at Snorkel Beach

* dinner in our Halloween costumes, provided by Sarah

* and a day at the Hilton

I just returned from Hawaii on Friday night and I'm only home for a week before heading out again to go be with my family. I'll spend a week in San Francsico, helping out with my sister's chemo treatment in the hospital, and then home to Nevada for the week of Thanksgiving. It will be really good to see my family, but my poor husband...he is having to survive without me for 3 out of the 4 weeks this month.

So...in this week that I am actually home...

We get to find out if our little one is a he or a she, and we can't wait. As I've mentioned before, Brett thinks it's a boy, and I think it's a girl. Our ultrasound is on Tuesday afternoon at 4, so come back on Wednesday to find out who's right.

Here is my 19 week baby belly:
