Baby Stuff!

Oh my gosh ... I tried to get a car seat in the stores a few weeks ago and just got frustrated and upset. The one I wanted online (which said they had it in stores) is not really in stores here.

So, I just ordered the darn thing online ... along with a pack 'n' play, stroller, and a high chair, all matching zoo themed sort of stuff, so it's gender neutral and can be used if hubby decides we want another baby. (tongue in cheek; he's said he doesn't know if he can handle me pregnant again. bwahahaha).

I feel better now. We have some clothes for him and the car seat will be here in a week or two, so we can actually bring him home at least ... lol.

The best part is that because I ordered it all at once (and spent so much ... *sigh*), I ended up with free shipping. $50 saved. Wahoooo!!!

KICKING!!!

Baby has been kicking a LOT harder this week. Hubby was trying to feel it this morning, but his hands were numb after work (6 hours holding a power wash hose will do that to ya), so he couldn't. Baby started kicking again just now, so I had kiddo come in the office and she felt it! She's so excited.

I just wish hubby had felt him first, but owell. *sigh*

It's so different from my pregnancy with kiddo -- she barely moved, only to poke or head butt my bladder. This baby is a lot more active. I saw my belly move the first time last night from his wiggles; he wasn't even kicking, just moving around. And then I was laying on my side, reading a labor and delivery book, and he was pushing against the bed, just stretching. I never felt any of this with kiddo. So weird. It's like being a first-time mom again.

I'm 22 weeks tomorrow. I realize this picture is blurry, but it's a cell phone like normal and for some reason I couldn't hold still.

I was desperate for a haircut today and stopped at Great Clips. I don't have a stylist I like, so once in a while I'll pay the 12 bucks to them and get a trim ... but ... 6 inches is a bit more than a trim. And it looked WAY better before I ran a zillion errands in the wind that plagues us today ...

ULTRASOUND!!!

It's a boy!!! We're very excited. Hubby is just thrilled to bits and said watching him move around and seeing everything on the ultrasound was worth having to stay awake for. He's never seen an ultrasound before. Kiddo said she was secretly hoping for a boy, but didn't want to tell before. She was thrilled we'd checked her out of school for it. lol.

It was a very good experience, and I keep catching hubby looking at the pictures of his son and getting all gooey. hehehehe.
