21 weeks and 19 to go!



So far so good! Feeling great for the most part. Still a little bit tired...but I think that has more to do with my wee toddler! Also more aches and pains than the first time around. this growing a baby business is hard on your body! Lots and lots of wee kicks and punches and the odd somersault - I love it! I swore the first 19 weeks of my pregnancy this baby was a boy...now I'm not so sure??? I keep thinking girl...and the only names I can come up with are girl names...We shall see!!! :)

Our Trip to Santa's Village in Wilmington, NY

Another place that Brad has fond memories of as a child. Olivia enjoyed her visit there - a place her daddy had been to over 25 years before!

I think the rain scared all the other visitors away - but not us!!!

CHOO CHOO!!!
