Here is the picture! I think I'll try a darker background next week. And I'm gonna play with some lighting. Hah. But there's the bump!
Jonathan and I were looking at a picture of us in the paper in January and I have definitely grown some! He was surprised I wasn't pushing out my belly in the 17 weeks one. It's fun to watch how my body is changing... but also a little scary. Ha. Which is why I have to start getting active! So that I can stay active when my little one is here. :D and teach him or her to be active as well.
That being said, I did a little lifting this weekend, arms and hips, and I think it's maintainable... not too heavy of weight at all, but enough to get me some exercise and enough to get ready for a heavy baby when it comes along. Hah. And Jonathan and I went for a long walk, which was hard, but it was nice to get out and about. I love that he wants to help me be active! My mom also got me a nifty pregnancy work-out video. I'm pretty excited to try it out!! :D
So this past week was sort of a weird one. It was one where (because I can't feel the baby yet) I didn't really feel pregnant. So I'm really looking forward to my appointment this week, so that I can hear the baby's heart and get all giddy about it again. It's strange because I'm almost halfway (3 more weeks!) and I feel like it's just flown by! Before I know it there'll be a baby here! :]
