Baby update #2

Our special Christmas gift

I had my 20 week ultrasound last week and got to see our baby again on the big screen:) It is amazing how much it has grown since our last ultrasound which was only three and half weeks ago. Everything is looking good and baby is measuring normal from what they can see. The baby is also measuring a week ahead so my due date was showing up as April 29th, so not sure if this is going to be a May baby or an April baby. I am now officially past the 21st week mark of when we lost Faith. It is a little bittersweet. I am thankful to be where I am at in this pregnancy but I do wish Faith was still here too. From now on this pregnancy will be new things for me, I haven't been 21 weeks and two days before so I am excited to keep getting to experience this amazing miracle of carrying a baby. I can feel the baby move all day long and makes me smile each time, I don't think this could ever get old. Bryce got to feel it kick for the first time last night and he got so excited, it was cute! God has really humbled me through this. Not a minute goes by that I am not thankful for this baby and don't want to take any of it for granted. My belly maybe growing faster than I want it to, I may not be able to sleep through the night anymore, and my legs may be starting to bother me but all of this is so small compared to the blessings that He has given us.
