I feel like I'm in denial. I never honestly expected this pregnancy to go so well. Or for so long. Is that doubt and fear or what? Anyway, as my belly expands my denial is forced to retreat. I am beginning to really get excited, but am now facing fears too, which I'm sure are somewhat normal. Are we actually ready for this? We're working on it. We've been stocking up on diapers... and buying little things on clearance when we go to the store. We bought a changing table and glider off of craigslist. We're slowly accumulating A LOT of things. Why do we think babies need so much stuff? Anyway. I feel like I'm rambling. I am.
We are 22 weeks. More than halfway! It's pretty exciting. I have taken 1 picture. At 20 weeks. (Sorry it's dark. I haven't really figured out how to light the living room without a thousand lights. The light just gets sucked away... that and the camera on my phone sucks).
In other news, I get to go to Boston for a week for work. Surgical Education Week. Sounds exciting eh? I'm looking forward to a week on my own, as a grown-up. I'm sure I'll miss Noel and my pups terribly, but I love my job and I am really looking forward to this opportunity.
*Note- Next year's conference is in Orlando: which is a much better location for a March conference.
These pictures were taken at 24 weeks while I was in Boston for work. That's my hotel room. It was a nice place to live for a week, but I'm glad to be home. 
So I'm definitely feeling movement. Twice in Boston, I was able to feel it from the outside which was kind of exciting... it's getting a little stronger and more noticable now, which really makes me feel at ease. I have had it pretty easy, I definitely can't complain. I'm looking forward to finishing the basement this month and being able to start setting up the nursery. :) We're thinking the house will go on the market around May 1. Crazy? I think so.
