20 weeks and the babe is movin!

I felt the baby move last night for the first time! It was like it had a little stick and was poking me to say hello! 2 little pokes and one sort of roll and that was it! Everyone said that I would be sure when it was the actual baby and not gas or indigestion (gross I know).... It was so amazing! I can't believe that we will be feeling the actual kid from here on out!


So, we are at 20 weeks now . . .(pardon the terrible self portrait - self timers stink). Half way until our lives are changed F-O-R-E-V-E-R!

So here is what else is going on with the little Howelling ---

Your baby weighs about 10 1/2 ounces now. He's also around 6 1/2 inches long from head to bottom and about 10 inches from head to heel — the length of a banana. He's swallowing more these days, which is good practice for his digestive system.
