Half way there!

This week is 20 weeks- the half way point in pregnancy!  The weather here is Chico is finally starting to look like Spring just in time as I am getting over my third cold since being pregnant.  The sun is out, Spring is here and those birds aren't the only ones nesting!  Now that I am feeling better I really feel the need to get some unfinished project done here around the house and start setting up the baby's room.  We find out later this week (so check back soon!) if Baby is a girl or boy.  Tim and I are so excited!  Then I'll really want to get the nursery ready!

We were very blessed two weeks ago to receive many needed baby things from another family at church.  They gave us a car seat and stroller travel system, a very sturdy changing table, bassinette, many boy clothes from newborn to two years (does that mean we are having a boy?) and many other little things.  It was very bittersweet but we are so thankful.

 Tim has been a great help and blessing to me during this time of sickness and pregnancy.  Thank you to all those who were praying for me over the last few weeks during this recent and worst so far of my colds.  Let's pray that was the last one!  Tim has been taking pictures of my tummy as Baby and I grow.  We will, of course, post the ultrasound pictures when we get them.

 From around 17 weeks


 Now at 20 weeks!
