20 weeks

Yes, it's true I reached my half way mark in my pregnancy today. 20 weeks. I was really excited to wake up to our little baby girl kicking. We haven't felt her much, just a few kicks within this last week, but today it just made me smile to fell those tiny little kicks. I stayed excited until I got on the Internet and read my weekly pregnancy update; only to find out I am expected to gain a pound a week for the next 20 weeks. All I can say is, I am sorry Greg. Although you probably don't care, I feel bad. Will you still love me? Will I still love myself?
Well back to the exciting stuff, Baby Steele is the length of a banana...about 6 1/2 inches long from head to bottom and about 10 inches from head to heel and she weighs about 10 1/2 ounces (these are estimates). In our last ultrasound visit, the Dr. saw all 10 toes and fingers, 2 eyes, 2 ears, her nose & mouth, spine, brain, verified she's a girl and said she was, "A perfect baby". Who doesn't like to hear that.:).
We are anxiously awaiting her to join our family. I think Greg is a little more anxious than me. Almost daily I hear him say, "I can't wait for baby Zoey to come." (we've been calling her Zoey, but that could change.)
Greg is going to be such an amazing father. He is already such a loving, giving and caring husband. I couldn't have chosen a better partner. I love him with all my heart.

These were taken at our latest ultrasound, we have "Baby Girls" profile and little foot. We love her already.
