21 weeks

I'm 21 weeks today. Maybe I'll get a belly picture tomorrow. I stayed home sick today - had a fever last night and have a sore throat, stuffy nose, headache and all that funk. I feel really bad that I haven't taken a single belly picture since a few weeks ago! I gotta get better at it!

I'm definitely looking pregnant now. But some days I still don't feel pregnant - until I feel the itty bitty baby moving around. Richie was finally able to feel the baby moving a few days ago. I'm feeling him moving around all the time. I kind of forgot how much I absolutely love that feeling :)

I've been surfing the net looking at a bunch of baby boy clothes... but haven't bought anything. We did go to Kohl's this past weekend to use a $5 off coupon and our 30% off code - got lots of great things -
Richie: Sneakers, 2 jeans, 2 tank tops, watch
Laura: Pink sheets for twin sized bed, 6 pack white socks, black allstar converse sneakers (for Christmas), another pair of sneakers for next summer/fall
Baby Boy: a cute little blue and brown sleeper with a fuzzy bear on it
Me: maybe I'll get something next time...

You know all those girly clothes I had? (HAD!) ... I had a friend come over last weekend and she took it all. I'm headed to her house this weekend to take all her blue stuff. Her son is 6 months older than Laura, and she just had a baby girl last month. Perfect! I did go through and pick out about a laundry basket full of stuff that I just couldn't part with - or things I'd like to pass to Neleh or maybe another neice some day.

Tomorrow I'm going to meet up with my mom and Neleh... we're going to eat breakfast at Cracker Barrell and then do a little browsing/registering/shopping. I know you're all reading that saying "What? She's registering for baby #2?" Yes. I have a coupon for a $10 GC to Babies-R-Us if I set up a registry. So that's why I'm doing it. I'm sure I'll put maybe 5 things on there just to say I did it and get the GC. I keep waiting to get lucky and get one of those "create a Target registry and get a $20 GC" things in my mailbox, but no luck yet - if anyone reading this gets one and won't be using it - send it my way please!!!

Nothing wrong with creating a registry for baby #2. You'll need some new things for him, such as diapers, wipes, etc. And maybe some things specific to a baby boy. Just as long as it's not a 10-page registry, go for it!
