Week 22..Hello Summer!

Hi All,

Wow..can I say HOT? I think summer has officially arrived. It's been a beautiful, but very hot weekend (especially for this pregnant momma).

On to week 22 already, can you believe it? I sure can't, I still feel like there is so much to do and such little time!

Over the course of the past week I've started to feel the baby a lot more. I'm also starting to feel some real kicks, it's such an amazing feeling. Jon has yet to feel them though, every  time he tries the baby stops kicking...seems like he is getting shy around daddy :). I can't wait until Jon can feel them, he is going to be so happy :).

I went to a pediatrician information session this past week. It was really informative and seems like a great practice. It covered a lot more than I expected including baby safety, how to care for the baby, and what to expect when you bring the baby home. They also mentioned that we should take a Baby CPR class which I think we will do in the coming weeks. It was a bit overwhelming hearing everything, there is just so much to think about. I hope once he's here..it will all come together and that I'll do the right things.  I'm also going to visit another pediatrician next week. One of the great things about living in this area is the access to awesome healthcare providers. I'm feeling very comfortable about the Dr./Nurses I have met.

I've also joined a group called Mamistad. It's a group in NOVA for first-time pregnant mommies (Thanks Taylor for the recommendation!). I'm in a group of about 6 pregnant new moms who are also due in the Fall. We've had a couple of events, and it's been great to meet new people and share/learn about everyone's pregnancy experiences.

Well on to another week.. I've got a lot going on at work this week, so I hope it's a quick week!

Live.Laugh.Love,
