Kicker

At 18 weeks, 6 days, Michael and I finally felt TBD move!  Woo hoo!  

I've thought that I have felt some movement in there over the past few weeks, but I have always been able to also blame that on gas.  Not yesterday!  I felt a little jab deep inside and no flatulence followed.  I told Michael to come quick, and he was able to feel a little movement, too!  I so wanted Michael to feel TBD kick before he left and I had just about given up hope, but TBD didn't disappoint.  I felt a few movements today, too.  I have to admit, fetal movement is one of the best parts of pregnancy.  The movement also makes the pregnancy that much more real.  :)  

I've also decided to post a belly photo.  Please be prepared that my belly is not cute and round, it is two fat rolls being pushed out by a cute baby belly deep inside.  Oh well, this is my body type and all I can do is embrace it.  So bring on the fat-rolls-baby-belly!  :)  

18 weeks, 6 days

P.S.- You can thank my sister, or Tia (to TBD), for this belly shot.  She gave me a guilt trip about how second kids always get screwed out of things and that if TBD is a girl she will be especially mad since her baby book will be lacking her mama's belly photos.
