24 weeks and he is moving!!

Wow, It has been awahile since I have wrote in this journal. Lets see if I can capture everything that has been happening over the last 3 weeks. We have a friend that has a four month boy and is moving back to North Carolina. Her and her husband gave us a bunch of stuff for baby. It really helps us out on intitial cost.
We had a 3rd Ultrasound where the Ultrasound tech went over the whole baby to make sure all his parts and are growing right as well as to verify he is a boy. Well that took a while because he decided to sleep and not move a whole lot. He had a face plant the whole time and the Ultrasound Tech was not able to examine his face. So we get to go see baby again in an ultrasound. Hopefully, he will show his face. We would have been done with Ultrasounds. So I believe this will be our last one.

Nick and I get excited everyday wondering what he is going to look like. Well since we are both great looking people Ryder is going to be very cute and handsome!! Ryder no can hear sounds of our voices. It is said that Nick should read to him so when Ryder comes out of the womb he will be connected to Nicks voice. He will alway's be connected to my voice because he is with me 24/7. Nick reads him books and I play him music from the Iphone. We have headphone's that attach to my stomach which masks the volume a bit so it doesn't startle baby.

Baby is moving a lot now. It feels like he is tickling me from the inside. It is an amazing feeling and I often forget that it is a baby inside me doing that. sometime I will see a little pulse come from my stomach when he moves. The only is is when Nick goes to feel or even if I place my hands on my stomach he stops moving. Does he really feel us and doesn't move. I wish Nick could feel him more often.

My stomach is getting a little bigger and trying to find descent looking clothes that are good price are hard to find. Anyway, Things are great!!


Above you will see a photo of me at 23 weeks and Nick's belly as well. I think he is jealous that I get to show my belly all the time!
