18 weeks

Baby Bell is 18 weeks 6 days today....tomorrow he will be 19 weeks! It's crazy how fast this pregnancy is going by!!! In a week we'll be halfway there. As far as nursery business goes, mommy ordered bedding and DeeDee ordered the crib in the past few weeks so all that came in this past week. Needless to say, this weekend was full of projects. Uncle Eric, Aunt Jennie and the kids came to Paducah and the boys spent all day Saturday painting the nursery while Aunt Jennie and mommy went shopping. They got it all painted and it looks great! On Sunday, Daddy put the crib together. We just love the way it looks!! Hopefully, once the rest of the bedding and furniture is in, it will look more put together. So much fun working on his room!!

Other than that, everything's been pretty uneventful. I'm feeling great and I think I've felt him move a couple of times but I'm not sure. It's still early though so I'm sure he'll be more active in a few weeks. All I've felt so far are just little flutters so I'm not sure if it's him or not! Oh and I did get the H1N1 vaccine on Friday. I found the preservative-free one at the Marshall County Health Department so I drove there on Friday after school. Jon and I had gone back and forth about it but we prayed about it and decided it was the best decision for me to get it. I feel so much better going in to the holiday season knowing we're both protected!! I have not gotten the regular flu shot and as of now I don't plan on it. I was just so relieved I found the preservative-free vaccine. That made me feel so much better about getting it. We go on November 30 for our 20 week ultra-sound so please just continue to pray that everything goes ok and that mommy and baby continue to stay healthy and strong!
