Yoga Stretch
I hope everyone had a great weekend. I spent the majority of mine of the edge of my seat cheering the Tar Heels to victory. I have said this many times before...this has been a stressful season to be a pregnant Tar Heel. They seem to love the close games! If anyone didn't receive a bracket invitation and would like one, shoot me an email and I'll invite you to join Coast2Coast for our annual bracket competition.
On to baby updates...I started prenatal yoga last week. I'll go once a week for 6 weeks. It was a wonderful hour to just relax and breathe. It was the first time I was around other pregnant women. We spent the first part of class introducing ourselves, due dates, baby gender and discussing our most annoying ailments. I think for most people in the class sharing some of their stories was the best part. You get a lot of truly sympathetic feedback! I've mentioned before that the baby Floydster is very active. He was kicking up a storm in yoga. Somehow I've got to get him in a more relaxed state when I'm meditating--haha. He also decided to kick me as hard as he possibly could during Mass yesterday. I literally jumped off the pew in church. We are now officially at 22 weeks. I will continue to post updates. Have a great week!

Busy Weekend
We had a very busy weekend with baby preparations. Our Rock Star Baby stroller arrived on Saturday. Shane had done some pretty extensive research on strollers, car seats and travel systems and this is the one we finally decided would work best for us. Of course, I just love that Jon Bon Jovi is the one who designed it--haha. Thank you to both Teresa and Sarah who checked on the stroller delivery. We never knew when it was going to be shipped.
Shane has also been diligently working on refinishing my and Christopher's baby cradle. It has been through some hurricane flooding, so it needs extra TLC. The stripping is complete, so next he'll be on to the sanding!
We worked on the nursery a bit too. I took inventory of the baby clothes we have received. You think you have so many things until you divide the clothes up into months. I do know at this point, this kid is going pantless the first year of his life--haha. We have all of the furniture pieces in place, now I just get to fill the drawers!
The best part of the weekend however was last night's Tar Heel victory over Dook! Go Heels!

Today's Check Up
Today was my scheduled 20-week check up. I was able to hear the baby's heartbeat. He was moving around so much we got an earful of more than just heartbeat sounds. The actual meeting with the doctor was pretty quick. He walked in and said, "You're perfectly healthy. Any questions?" He went over all of my stats with me, but there wasn't anything to really discuss since all of my tests, BP, weight and overall health are in great range. Those are the kinds of appointments I look forward to having. Shane is flying home this weekend, so we'll keep you posted on our baby projects.
