Downward Slope

Tomorrow is week 21 and that means we're on the downward slope of pregnancy and so far it hasn't been too bad. The back aches are not fun by any means but I'm not the size of a whale yet and my hormones are mostly under control. Her kicks are getting a lot stronger and she moves quite often, especially between 4 and 5 a.m.

My dad visited this weekend and painted the peanut's room. We picked a very pale yellow to match the colors in her bedding. It looks great. Some of the furniture has been ordered so that should start arriving soon and I've started on the Alphabet Wall that will be above her crib. And by started, I mean I ordered a couple of the letters.

I have my next doctor's appointment next Monday and looking forward to another good report (fingers crossed). I know I've said this before, but I'm amazing at how quickly this pregnancy has flown by. It's hard to believe I'm 5 months pregnant. Before we know it, the peanut will be here, and we can't wait! (Well, we can, stay in there as long as you're supposed to!)
