We had an ultrasound about a week ago now. I was 20 weeks and baby is growing just right smack dab in the middle at 54% for age. Baby is 13 oz. It amazes me that they can figure all that out. HUGE smiles spread across our faces as we watched this beautiful baby rolling around inside me. A few tears even found their way to our eyes. We told the ultrasound technician not to tell us the sex . . . however, she kept saying "he".

I'm beginning to feel the nesting syndrome. Our home is a wreck even though we still don't have our household goods from Hawaii. So I decided we need some baby stuff. I went to the local Toys-R-Us and Baby One stores to prices some strollers/car seats, etc. . . wow, even if the Euro were equal to the dollar the price would be outrageous. So I was very disappointed in the price outside of base and with the limited selection of on-base shopping. In steps AMAZON!!! Thank goodness they deliver to APO addresses. I don't know how else we could get all the cool baby stuff there is out there at a reasonable (dollar) price. So, in case you want to get us something, we have a baby registry on Amazon now!
