Baby HaHa
Today I'll be 18 weeks and two days or 4 1/2 months. Oh yeah, I've gained 8 pounds. I asked the doctor if that was too much too soon and she said no, I think she's a liar. I've been feeling the baby move for a couple of weeks now but it hasn't really been that exciting because it doesn't feel like much. I expected it to feel a little more like a baby kicking rather than a cotton ball floating around. Three days ago I saw him kick. It was very pronounced. That was pretty exciting. Adam is still nervous. He's crunching numbers for college and worrying about work. He is not as easy going as I am when it comes to worrying. Might explain his full head of grey hair. 
I've finally decided which room the baby will go in. For those of you who have been in my house... it's the brown room. It will get painted bluish seafoamish green. (the same color as the blue fabric, although it looks more blue here) I'm making his bedding out of the cutest fabric that I got from fabricworm.com (above). I'm going to applique a surfer on it per Adam's request. I wanted to do his room in airplanes, it would be so fitting but Adam insisted on a surf theme. I don't really like the whole Hawaii theme, so it's going to be fish and surfers... close enough right? I took the fabric with me to lunch with the grandma's yesterday and Adam's grandma Ann was like.... "THAT'S different". Why is it so hard for old ladies to lie? Just say you don't like it or say you love it. "that's interesting" means you think it's horrible. But that's OK, she'll probably never have to look at his room anyways since it's on the second floor. If it turns out ugly I'll just buy something last minute.
This baby still has no name. We know his middle name, 'Adam' (family tradition-Adam's side). It's a great first name, but not an easy middle name to work with. The only name we both like is Harlan and I've gotten very little positive feedback on it. I don't want the boy to be embarrassed to tell people what his name is when they ask. Oh yeah... and his future wife will probably not appreciate that she has to work with the middle name "Harlan"...!! I have to state for the record that Adam wants to name his first born son Tully, Hunter, Gunner, Skylar, or Dax. This kid might appreciate Harlan once he hears the alternatives. I'll keep thinking.
