Over Halfway There!!

If you'll notice my pregnancy ticker on the right, you will see that I have surpassed the halfway mark--yea! Since I went past the 40 week mark with Connor, I can safely say that I am probably JUST halfway there. Much like my first pregnancy, this one has been pretty uneventful, which I'm definitely not complaining about. Other than being tired, I have not had any sickness, nausea, etc. I don't crave anything nor does any food gross me out. Does that mean I'm having another boy?? We'll see come March, but if I was a betting person, I'd bet yes. I went to the doctor last week and all is well. I've gained 10 lbs and the nurse said most people have gained closer to 20 lbs at this point, so that made me feel good! :)
Here are some beauty pictures of me at 21 weeks. I just stepped out the shower so forgive the look.

On another note, day 2 of Mother's Day Out went well! I did leave him crying a bit but the director called me after an hour and a half and said he was doing fine. He ended up staying the whole day -- yea!! He got tired toward the end and I guess was a little fussy off and on, but she said mostly, he was happy. For those of you who send a little one off to MDO, I need some good lunch ideas. He hasn't completely mastered a fork or spoon (without food getting everywhere) and there is no refrigerator or microwave. SO, last week I packed cheese, crackers, turkey and fruit. Any ideas???

Oh and I can't forget to say WAY TO GO BEARS!!!!

I've packed quesadillas for William and cut them into little triangle or square shapes. Just the right size for little fingers. Also, you can pack a few nuts for extra protein and energy (William's favs are the cashews and almonds). I cant believe you are 1/2 way already...where does the time go??!! You look great; good for you hot mama!!!
