20 weeks: Half way there!

Today is my 20 week mark and I'm officially half way through this pregnancy! I'm feeling great and loving my baby bump.

Here is the latest pregnancy news:

1) Cravings: Still loving the fresh berries but lately I've been putting them on top of ice cream because my sweet tooth has majorly kicked in! I also had a week where I drank a root beer float every night. (real healthy I know!)

2) Movement: This little dude is going to be one ACTIVE kid! I started feeling him move around 17 weeks and he is constantly doing acrobatics in there. Taber was even able to feel him already because he doesn't just wiggle around, I swear he's trying to ninja kick his way out of there!

3) Names: Taber gets the final say on this one since it's a boy, but so far I've submitted 10 names and he hasn't really gotten excited about any of them! Teya is still insisting on Tyke and she heard me say Spencer once and will sometimes offer that name up as well. We'll see what Taber finally ends up going for...

You are just so cute I can't stand it! I am excited to hear what name you guys choose...are you going to spill the beans before Tyke comes, or keep it a suprise until after he is born?? Oh by the way I have been downing some root beer floats as well...yummy. If you were still here, I would insist on doing root beer float nights at least once a week. ;)

You look great!! Now you've made me curious about your 10 name choices. What is Taber throwing out there?

You are beautiful and I love that dress on you!

Yes I agree you look great! We've got a king sized bed, and we're really grateful since both our monsters always end up w/ us. Haha. Gotta live those cuddles & kicks I guess!

You look great!
Hilarious said that he's trying to ninja kick his way out of there. Katie was definitely waaaaay more active in utero than Anna...and she is still waaaay more active.
Tyke would be an awesome middle name/nickname.
Has Taber thought of any names that you like?
I love pg. updates!

I with Teya! Name him Tyke! She cracks me up. You look fab for 20 weeks girly! Good for you for letting Taber pick the "man" name, I'm sure whatever he picks will be perfect and the little dude will be proud of the name his dad gives him :)

I love it! You are just too dang cute! Why can't we all look that cute prego?! You are so nice to let Taber pick the name. Man if we had gone that route, I would have barely gottne a chance to name anybody!

I laughed about your root beer float craving because I just had one, about an hour ago. By myself. I felt like such a weirdo, since root beer floats are usually more of an "event" than a snack.. but I just wanted one! Funny. Can I blame it on a nursing craving? :)
Anyway! You are such a cute pregnant girl! I hardly took any pictures with this last pregnancy but if I was as cute as you, I would have taken a lot more. :)
Good luck picking a boy name, they are so hard! Spencer was also a frontrunner when we were picking with Jarom. Your family seems to have similar taste in names because if we were gonna have a girl we had already decided on Lily, and then Kyle was tied with Micah up until the day we filled out the birth certificate form. :)

You are the cutest prego lady!

I vote for Tyke.

And congrats on a boy! i must've missed that post...

You look so great! I love the rootbeer float cravings - when I'm pregnant I decide that anything I feel like eating counts as healthy.

So funny that Teya is rooting for the name Tyke!
