20 weeks today!!!!

WOW!!!  This day is incredible.  I have made it to the halfway mark.  Im so excited. Such a long journey, but finally great results, and one healthy baby on his way.  I am so thankful to be experiencing this pregnancy.  The whole process has made me a much happier person.  The feeling of love, joy, and excitement in my house is overwhelming.  But in a great way.  Everyone is excited to greet this little fella into our lives.  And that makes me feel wonferful.  We have decided on the name Carter Ray Gregory.  Its so fitting. My Papa's middle name was Ray, and I loved that man so very much.  So when we found out we were pregnant, my husband & I instantly discussed how we could incorporate "Ray" in the baby name.. My Papa would be so very proud of this. I know he is looking over us and enjoying every moment of it. So Carter Ray it is.  And it has stuck very well.  Almost feels like it was meant to be his name.  We ave bought all the furniture for Carter's room.  My husband and step daughter have it all nearly put together.  Just the rocker and glider left.  We painted last weekend.  Its a darker aqua blue and chocolate brown.  The two colors look amazing together.  It is so surreal to go into Carter's room and realize that not too long from now, there will be a little bitty baby boy in that room.  I just cant wait.
Well here lately the symtoms I have been having are the following, hungry, hungry, hungry.  I cant seem to get enough to eat. LOL..  Subway is my BFF.  With extra vinegar... Cant get enough vinegar.  OMG...  Umm, also starting to get very tired again.  I decided last night that 1030 can no longer be a bedtime for me.  So I made it 930 last night.  And it seemed to help.  So I am going to try and stick with that.  I am definitely showing. Quite a bit..  I actually saw myself in a full length mirror for the 1st time yesterday while shopping.  I stopped and froze in place.  I believe I started glowing at the sight. I mean, I actually thought I looked cute.  So that was great.. I have been feeling a lot of movement for about 2 weeks now.  My husband randomly walks by me and puts his hand on my belly to feel if Carter is awake, and it touchs my heart.  He is overjoyed with this whole thing.  Also  my daughter felt Carter kick just this past Tuesday.  She freaked out!!!  The smile on her face was priceless.  She just can't wait to be a big sister.  My step daughter surprised me last week.  I had shown her an outfit at Babies R Us  that I thought was the cutest thing.  Well she went and bought it, sent me a pic text  showing it to me.  She said, she would probably be spending a lot of money spoiling this baby.  LOL..  How sweet..
To all of you here at DS.  Thank you..  For the support, kind words, and encouragement.  Without this forum, I seriously think I would have went stir crazy.  But with the help of all of you (in combo with my Dr.'s) I am where I want to be.  And I am glad I can share this all with you. 
I will be posting new pics this weekend. I have to get it done, or some of my DS sisters are going to track me down and give me a beating...  :)  LOL..
