20 Weeks

I can't believe I am already half way through this pregnancy! I seriously feel like time is flying by but I'm enjoying every minute of it. From the kicks I can already tell that this baby is a little gentler than Adelaide. She would kick in spurts really aggressively while this baby gives more gentle kicks all throughout the day. We just had the 20 week ultrasound and it was so fun to watch the baby give us a little show. He kept bringing his hands up to his mouth and kicking and punching and at one point he even did a slow little back flip trick causing the ultrasound technician to call him "yoga baby." I know I just referred to the baby as a he, but that is just because saying "it" over and over gets a little annoying. We still don't know the baby's gender, when they were checking out down there they had Rick and I look away and chat. We have brainstormed a few names though; for a boy we like Cash (it is a family name on Rick's side of the family) or Bentley, and for a girl we like Caroline or Clementine. Any thoughts?

Sorry these are a little blurry, they are taken from our phones... I really should learn how to use our scanner.

Here are a couple belly pictures of me at 20 weeks. I have the best husband ever who kept Adelaide for five days while I went back to San Diego for my sister's graduation and to spend time with family. It was a great trip made up of multiple breakfast burritos, lots of giggle fests, a relaxing bed and breakfast stay, planking sessions and trips to the beach.

From the front I think I just look like I ate a few too many donuts.

I LOVE the name Caroline for a girl...and our Claire was almost a Charlotte. Something about C names, I guess. As for the boy names, I think either one sounds great. Can't wait for the baby to arrive so we all know what it is!!

You look great, by the way...pregnancy suits you well!

You are like the cutest pregnant girl Emily! I like all your names! I am going to guess right now that you are having a boy. This one is much more agressive in the belly than Kade ever was. Maybe girls are little divas in there ;)
