20 Weeks, 18 Months, & a stomach bug...

...that pretty much describes last week for us.

20 Weeks...I can't believe I have reached the half-way mark of this pregnancy! It has gone by so very quickly.  I have learned to not wish one day away; to cherish each little movement and milestone -it goes by so quickly. 

18 Months...My little man is 1-1/2 years old! Again, hard to believe.  I guess I can officially call him a toddler.  He's doing all kinds of new and exciting things lately.
When he was in my belly and I told people it was a boy I would hear so much about how very much little boys love their mommies.  I am learning that this is SO true, he melts my heart everyday with the love and affection he shows me!

3 fun things he likes to do all in one picture: coloring, praying, and wearing his gloves.

We woke up this morning and headed straight to Luke's 18 month well check.

He's a healthy boy and I'm a proud momma.

The downside of an 18 month old?
Getting a good picture! 
I try so hard and most turn out like this:

 
and finally, the stomach bug:
Andy started the week off with a stomach bug.  We thought we were in the clear until Wednesday when Luke woke up sick and I got sick the following night.
Thankfully, we are all much better and looking forward to a healthy and fun week ahead.
Happy Monday!

It's a GIRL!

We are excited to announce we are expecting a 
GIRL!
More exciting than finding out the gender of our baby was finding out that everything looked healthy on the sonogram!
So far, this little girl has been more active than Luke; I've been feeling her since about 16 weeks.
We are coming very close to deciding on a name.  When we know for sure, I will let y'all know.
Thanks for all of your thoughts and prayers!

Luke with Brooklyn

Luke has been great with Brooklyn. He is very gentle and hasn't shown signs of being jealous of another baby being around.

He loves to wave at her and say, "hi!".
Then he loves to check out all of Brooklyn's things....
