HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

| So thankful for our little bundle of joy! |
Total Weight Gain: Last doctor's visit 13 lbs & 12 oz. I don't think I've gained any additional weight this week. In fact, since I heard the total number, I started to slow down on the bad foods and started to focus more on eating more of the healthy foods. That doesn't necessarily mean I laid off on all "yummy stuff" I've just limited it's frequency and portions.

| The Hogie Bun at 21 weeks |
As mentioned in the previous update, baby is doing great and pretty active inside the Hogie Bun!
On another note, while we were having our 20 week ultrasound and after they told us it was going to be a baby boy. The baby was constantly moving his little arms and legs. At one point the baby did a "hi" hand movement, which of course, we were very excited and assumed he was waving at us. As first time parents, I think we were both experiencing a lot of "aww moments" and smiling from ear to ear with whatever we saw him doing.
However, there was a time during the ultrasound when the baby was really working his little arms and moving them in a forward motion (up and down) and Dan said "look at him, his practicing his quarterback moves", well sure enough a little bit after that comment, the baby ended up making a hand motion that resembled a #1 with his little fingers. See picture below. It was the cutest thing!

We are looking to do some Black Friday shopping, so we'll see how comfortable I feel during and after shopping. Wish me luck!
Skin Changes: normal
Bellybutton: not much change since last time
Looking Forward to: Finding some great deals and saving some money!
Predictor Tests: It's official, all those wives tales are fun to test but not accurate and obviously 50/50. Most of my tests came up as our baby being a girl, and only a couple of them being a boy. Sure enough, the way you carry high/low or the fact that your face might look "fuller" does not matter either. BUT IT'S ALWAYS FUN TO KEEP GUESSING! at least up until a certain point!
We're Thankful For...
We're thankful for the basics:
food, clothing and comfortable shelter;
the rest is a bountiful bonus.
We're thankful for work, play, and the treasured people
who make these experiences richer and more meaningful.
We're most thankful for family and friends,
especially the dear friends who are and have always been there for us!
Happy Thanksgiving!
