Well-- somehow, I have made it to 20 weeks (20 weeks and 2 days, actually) without documenting almost anything besides a camera phone snapshot of my belly at 15 weeks!!! So, just for my personal memory, I am going to post a few facts about this pregnancy;
March 13, 2011-- First positive pregnancy test (so VERY faint!)
March 17, 2011-- Told family we were expecting #2!
March 29, 2011-- First Doctor visit, pregnancy confirmed
April 2011-- Nausea, but no throwing up
May 20, 2011-- Hit second trimester-- feel AMAZING!!!
End of Mayish-- started feeling baby move!!!
June 13, 2011-- Doctor visit-- heart rate: 169
June 28, 2011-- BIG ultrasound! Everything looked great!
July 2011-- Nesting hit...HARD.
So here we are--This baby is a banshee, practicing kickboxing on the daily in my belly, JUST like big sister Haddie! I started feeling her around 14 weeks and she hasn't stopped moving since! The ultrasound was a little tough, but I am still amazed (and impressed!) that we didn't find out the sex of the baby. All along I have said that I only really every wanted a girl, so anything else would just be bonus! So, hopefully in November, we will be blessed with a big fat surprise! I have also been nesting like crazy, something I never experienced with Haddie. I get something in my head about cleaning and I have to do it immediately-- I have been up until 1am the past few nights organizing or straightening up! We are loving it because I am not normally such a good housewife, haha! I go back to the doctor this week for a 20 week check up and I am hoping this pregnancy progresses without any drama, but knowing what I know about my previous pregnancy, I have it in the back of my head that something could pop up-- praying for a smooth 4 months!!!
Now, even though we didn't find out the gender of the baby doesn't mean I don't think about it very second of every day--so some fun (and not factual!) gender quiz results!!!

If I had to guess I would say it is a boy...but tomorrow, I may feel like it's another girl! Either way I'll be so excited, but honestly, I feel like its a boy right now!!!
