Baby Girl Rivera is getting stronger every day! She likes to make sure I know she's around at about 10:30 - 11pm. My belly is getting bigger every day, and yes.....I know I need to post more pics! I'll try to get around to it this weekend (and yes, I know I've said that before too).
It's the most amazing thing to feel her moving around in there. I wish David could experience more of what I feel with her - she's just so active! I love her so much already!! She likes it when I sing to her in the morning while I drive to work - and I also think she liked listening to the book I was "reading" on CD. While I know she didn't hear that well, I have read she picks up on the lower, deeper sounds - and can even become startled by loud noises. I think this is why she is awake when I'm hungry - she wakes up to the rumble of my belly!

Here's another ultrasound pic from our Week 20 Ultrasound. Look closely and you can see her giving her parents the 'thumbs up' sign. I think she was telling us she's doing okay!
My "round ligament" pain seems to have subsided quite a bit, so I'm not worried about that any longer. I still feel some minor growing pains every once in a while, but nothing that concerns me. My belly really itches from my skin stretching, so I find myself itching A LOT. (Yes, I do put lotion on it....but that doesn't help all the time.)
So that's about it for now. David and I still haven't picked out a theme (or wall color) for the nursery, but I'm hoping to get that done this weekend. I found two cute themes at Babies-r-Us while I was home, but I have also been checking out some things on-line - so we'll see.
Lots of love to everyone and we'll be seeing everyone for the holidays!!!

Today is November 13th. 34 years ago I gave birth to a beautiful blue-eyed baby girl. We named her Julie Norene. PaPa called her little ding ding boom boom cause that is what she said when the ice cream truck came down the street. Soon she will give birth to her own beautiful daughter. Time flys but love never ends.
