And he shall be called.....

well I'm almost into the third trimester (only a few more days) yay!!!  I've been feeling great overall!  starting to feel a little tired again but nothing like the first trimester!  I've also started to have more back pain and difficulty getting comfortable.  Thank goodness for my wonderful husband who bought be a snoogle pillow from babies r us a couple months ago in anticipation of this time period.  It is like a body pillow but curved into a C shape so that it curves under my head and between my knees and it has been AMAZING!  If we go anywhere for the night....the snoogle goes too!  Thanks to this genius invention I have been able to actually get some good sleep!  Dearest hubby likes to make fun of me as I prepare my "nest" each night to get into bed....but hey, I'm sleeping like a rock so go ahead and tease away!  :)

Right now baby D is about the size of a head of cauliflower and weighs in at about 2 pounds....here's what he looks like according to baby center:

and here's what he looks like according to the baby....in my center....  :)

ya know what....who cares if my Dr. says I "don't have to eat anything else for the rest of my pregnancy"(based on my weight gain)  to me....this looks like all baby!  hope he isn't too much of a haus!

And now what you've been waiting for.....we have had a name for a while now and have been calling him by this name.  We've shared it with family and close friends who have also been calling him by name.  I thought we probably needed to think of some other options and make sure we really like this one best, but every attempt to think of new names.....we kept coming back to the same things and couldn't get past it.  So I guess we should just stick with what we know we like.  So.....sweet baby D shall be called.........

daddy is very excited that they will have the same initials and that he shares his middle name.

That's all for now....thanks for letting me share!
