how far along: 21 weeks
gender: BOY!
movement: yes, and his kicks are getting stronger. When I lay on my back, his kicks move my stomach. Justin, my mom, and Sara have all felt him move, too!
what i miss: my jaw. It's having a mid-pregnancy crisis and acting more like an extension of my cheek. gross.
what i'm looking forward to: my first stranger comment. hopefully they will be polite but i feel like it is a sure sign that the world can see my belly is a product of baby making and not potato chip eating.
weight gain: 10 pounds as of this morning. So far I'm staying on track according to Dr. Skweres' recommendations, but i'm sure I'll balloon out soon (especially since I'm always hungry!).
best moment this week: Hearing the heartbeat at my checkup. I like being reassured every four weeks that baby Skweres is doing well.
weekly wisdom: When you are pregnant, it is wise to lean forward while you eat. Otherwise crumbs and such land on your belly. This seriously detracts from the cuteness of said belly.
milestones: We're half way through the 40 week wait to meet baby Skweres!

Oh, yeah...a definite change from two weeks ago. There's no way that anybody would mistake you for a potato chip muncher!
Love, Aunt Mimi
