21+ weeks

I finally broke out the maternity clothes today, so I thought it would be a good time for the first belly shot. I've been feeling the baby move now for about five weeks, and it's kicking as vigorously as Jack was by this time, especially when I lie down to go to sleep at night. We were pleased to see an active, healthy baby at our ultrasound this morning.
We've decided to get our prenatal care through the Midwife Center, which we heard about from our friends, the Wards and the Tomans. They recently went through the Midwife Center for their pregnancies. We really like the atmosphere of the center-- it's very child-friendly, and I've brought Jack to almost all of my appointments. We have yet to meet two out of five midwives, but so far, they have all been very accommodating and personable.
This pregnancy has flown by, and I'm sure that's due to the fact that I now have an almost-toddler to keep me occupied all of the time-- but I wouldn't change my occupation for a thing in the world. I'm just looking forward to my further promotion come June, when I get to be the full-time mommy of two sweet babies.

I don't see a picture?

Glad you like the Midwife Center! We were really satisfied with our experience there. And our kids loved the toys.

And, go on and divulge the gender, already!
