Father To Be Who Me?: Oh boy where did 3 weeks go????

I know I know. THREE WEEKS

How does it fly by? Honestly Kelly and I have been going non stop and just been too tired and lazy to keep up. We vow to be better from now on.

I will try to summarize and bring up the important parts of the last 3 weeks as best I can.

In week 23 Kelly's belly button finally popped outwards and I got to feel Jackson kicking away inside mommy's belly. So neat knowing he is dancing around in there.

This was the last week of the honeymoon for Kelly so to speak. the second trimester was wonderful she had energy, felt good, and had been super happy all the time.

This was her end of week 23 Belly.

In week 24 we were so blessed to get so many baby outfits and odd and ends from both Kelly and I's mothers. This baby is gonna be spoiled by two wonderful grandmas!

In week 24 Kelly became ravenously hungry again. It was like flashbacks to 15 weeks pregnant when she had to eat literally every 2 hours. Regardless, she still has kept a lovely figure and is all belly and glowing!

We got more clothes sent to us by family and our dear friend Ashley. I knew nothing would fit in Kelly's closet so I hung the baby stuff in mine. it was so surreal to see this tiny lilttle shirts next to mine, and to think " oh my God, my son is going to be here soon!" I think is tickled Kelly as well so she took a picture of it.

A cool thing happened to Kelly this week. She was in the bathtub and Jackson let out a big kick and it sent ripples across the water!!!

Here is the end of week 24 belly shot and a picture with Kelly's face showing how gorgeous

she is!

Week 25 came and went fast as well. Kelly is starting to waddle even more, and that belly button just keeps pushing out. When Jackson kicks Kelly will lay on her back and we can watch her skin and actually see where he kicks. That is the neatest feeling in the world. I can't wait until we can make out feet and such. How fun! Kelly has been tired again and even felt a bit of morning sickness, they say the 3rd trimester is a lot like the first and we can see why now. Technically we aren't in it until week 27, but I guess it came early. I am trying to just be comforting to her and remind her that it's not good for her nor the baby to stress. I really love this woman and admire her for working full time through her pregnancy. Which includes getting up at 5 AM every morning and getting home near 7 pm. She is my super sexy hero!

My little brother came up for a visit and brought us a bassinett from my mothers house. It is really nice and we are lucky we get to borrow it. Since diapers are so spendy anything we can borrow or have has been such a blessing!

Jackson kicks are now getting higher and Kelly's belly is expanding rapidly again so we know the little booger is really growing! I was just thinking WOW he is going to be here in 12 or so weeks! Not long at all! Well for the father anyway, I am not carrying him around, Kelly might feel differently =).

We finally registered on http://www.babiesrus.com/ and actually got our first gift, a baby bjorn carrier from Kelly's coworkers Scott and Jessica. That was so kind of them and we hear they are expecting a little boy not too long after ours is due.

Here is the end of week 25 belly shot, we tried to have more fun this time, we compared Belly's in one picture and took one of the belly head on! Hope you enjoy...
