20 Weeks

I thought it was about time to post another picture of me pregnant.


Here I am with my 20 week belly. I CANNOT believe I am half way there already. I feel kind of bad because I rarely pay any attention to the fact that I am having a baby. With Brooklyn I read every baby update I got telling me what was happening with her and all that. This time I glance over the email just to see how big he is and that is about it. I guess there is nothing that compares to being pregnant with your first one. I can barely tell you how far along I am...thank goodness for that baby count down I have on the side of me blog. It is just so different!
************************
Here are some things going on in this pregnancy:
*I am SOOOOO feeling fat and chubby all over. I HATE that feeling more than anything!
*I am SOOOOO hungry come 9-10 at night. I don't know what to do about it, so I cave in and eat a bowl of cereal. I told Wade last night that he now is responsible for stopping me from doing that. I could easily gain a ton of weight that way!
* I am still wearing my regular clothes, although I have tried putting some maternity clothes on and they are just too big still. ( I kind of like my maternity clothes, so I am almost anxious to where them.)
*I am having contractions already. It started about 2 weeks ago. NOT A GOOD SIGN since last time I had pre-term labor!
*I have to pee all the time and sleeping is getting uncomfortable.
*The baby is moving all the time now...which I still love! Feels like a little fish is flapping around everywhere.
*We have a few names picked out. Are you curious as to what they are??? None of them are final. We really have not talked about it other than throwing out a name here and there. With Brooklyn..as soon as we found out she was a girl we picked out a name right away and that was that! Here are some, but like I said we have not even really thought about it and I am not in love with any of them at this point. Oh and the middle name is DEFINITELY Slade after Wade's mom's middle name and madden name. Brooklyn is Renee after my mom's middle name.

Here are our names so far.
Tyler
Ryan
Logan
Ashton
Eastin-Wade already vetoed!
Cameron-Wade Vetoed
William-I vetoed
Tristan-Wade loves this name but I can't seem to like it at all. But I should because it sounds like a name I would like.
I cannot remember the other names. Shoot. Maybe there are none!

You look great. Names are so hard. good luck with that. I think boys names are even harder than girls. Eeek!

K- you know that I love the name LOGAN and I really like RYAN, I am not keen on Ashton only because it is too much like Ashlyn and I think it sounds a little feminine. So basically if you don't go with LOGAN, then I would do RYAN as my second choice. I also love the name Matthew Wade...That is cute =D

Oh and how the heck is it that you don't even look prego!?! I know you think you are huge, but hunny you're not!!!

You know my opinion since we seem to like the same names! LOGAN!

First, you don't even look pregnant! I just know when/if I get pregnant, at 20 weeks I'll be ready to burst. I say you're very lucky.

Now, I have to give my two cents about the boy names. (Mostly because Brooklyn is my girl name I have picked out so I must have good taste.)

I like Logan, of course. But I also like the name Braydon, but no one seems to like it. And I think Tyler is very cute. I also really like the name Cody too. I agree with Sara about Ashton. The only Ashton's I know are girls...as well as Cameron.

There's my opinion, even though you didn't ask!

You look so great Lindsay! You know I will say Ryan is a great name because I have one:-) But William is too long in my opinion unless you don't mind him being called Bill. Good luck with the name, I know you will find one and it will automatically stick with you.
I am going to Michelle's this Saturday for a hair appointment, so wish me luch. YOu want to do something next week?
