Oh Baby we are half way there! Literally, we are half way through the pregnancy and 15 weeks (give or take) away from meeting this little wonder of ours! It has been a truly amazing experience from the moment we found out could it be; yes it might be; holy cow it is! I have been lucky to have felt well so far and am thoroughly enjoying the pregnancy life. We had our mid-way appointment about a month ago and got to see the baby in all of his/her glory...not to mention glimpses of all the organs and inner works. Chills ran through us both as we held hands tightly while the Dr. performed his duties and explained all of the measurements along the way. We chose not to find out the sex of the baby prior to birth. No true reason other than the additional magnitude of surprise on the actual birthday!
The baby has taken on several nicknames but the one that has stuck is R2B2...insinuating the name will be Rick II or Beth II. I can assure you while we both love our names, the name R2B2 takes on will be different from both. Naming aside, this little wonder has developed quite the personality inside and even hosts daily kickboxing classes! We are thrilled at the thoughts and daily discussions about the life this child will lead, the traits they will take on and the experiences we will have as new parents. In the meantime, we are in full "nesting" mode. The new carpet was installed as part of home remodel version 3.0, the nursery projects are underway and boxes and bins of goods we once thought we could not live without are being sent to the Goodwill. Stewie even senses a movement of change but him just isn't quite certain what that change will be yet! Now we just need the weather to start cooperating as we know the most amazing miracle will be arriving at the end of the summer!
XO,
EAT
