25w1d- We have a name!!

Well actually we've had it picked out since a few days after Easter.  I just forgot to post it on here.  The thing is, we've decided not to announce the name to anyone because we don't want our family voicing their "thoughts" on the name.  I can say though, that his initials will be SMS.

25w0d- 2 colds and a kicking machine

Haven't posted in a while since I've been so sick over the last month and am just starting to feel better now.  It started out with a cold that I thought was going away and then came back with a vengeance.  I had a cough for over 2 weeks and missed a lot of time off work.

Over the last month we've had a midwife appointment (everything is looking good) and PP got to feel the baby kick on two occasions.  The first time he felt it, he was thrilled, then the other day he was resting his head on my belly and the baby kicked.  He's been kicking up a storm the past week.  I usually feel something every hour or two and sometimes he kicks so hard that my entire body shakes.  It's pretty thrilling.

We went and looked at Strollers today.  We're pretty sold on the Zooper Waltz.  It isn't a 1 hand fold but we figure that we probably wouldn't rely on that feature anyway.  The Waltz was the only one that PP could easily figure out, without much troubles.  It comes with a ton of accessories that we would have to pay for separately if we got a different stroller, it's lightweight and is a nice looking stroller to boot.  We're waiting for the 2008 model to come in, but if it's going to be a long wait, we'll probably order online from some stroller store if we can find one that ships up North.

I have another midwife appointment next Tuesday and we're starting parenting classes in 2 weeks and our 3D u/s is also in 2 weeks.  It's going to be a busy 3rd trimester but I'm really trying to savor every moment of this pregnancy.
