20 Week Appointment

We went to Dr. Lampkin's office for our 20 week visit today. Everything continues to be going great and very smoothly. I still haven't been sick! Yea! Ever since I started feeling the "real kicking" last Friday, Tucker hasn't stopped! He kicks all the time! I played with the ultrasound machine at work the other night but it turned out he didn't want to play! We have our next appointment with Dr.Hales on December 30th. We will get more US pictures and we will also find out how much he is weighing and check all my fluid levels etc.! That should be fun! Grant and I are trying to get all of our last minute Christmas shopping done and presents wrapped before I have a long stretch of work that will lead right into going to Dallas for Christmas! I can't wait!

Kicking/Hiccups

Around 7:30 this morning I was laying in bed after waking up from a dream. Suddenly, I felt something funny in my tummy. It was rhythmic....hiccups! And then a few movements that seemed to resemble kicking! I just laid there taking in every movement! Like I have said before, I have felt flutters but today was the most distinct feeling of any other day! I hope to feel him move more and more everyday (and I know I will;) )! Anyone that knows me knows that I am NOT a morning person. I couldn't go back to sleep after feeling Mr. Tucker--how special!....Anyways-Grant and I are doing well. We decorated the house for Christmas last night! Our last time by ourselves for Christmas! Wow! It looks so pretty and I love being surrounded by Christmas decorations! I am frantically trying to get all my presents bought for the family! I realized yesterday that there are only a few more days left to go shopping with my work schedule, etc! Aghh! We go for your 20 week appointment next Thursday! I will have more Tucker updates then! For now-----everyone enjoy the days until Christmas! I know I will!
