Baby Fuller is kicking!
So the best part of each day is when I feel the baby kicking. It's sooooo cool! I've been feeling the flutters for a while but then the last week and a half, I thought I was noticing that the baby was kicking when I put my hand on my belly. Then, on Thanksgiving, it was really obvious! I just sat in the recliner chair and lifted up my shirt and stared at my belly. I could watch the waves of movement and sometimes see the very strong kicks. Of course, I couldn't help myself and did it even though my family was here. But Caitlyn was adorable and crawled into the recliner chair with me and patted my belly and talked to the baby to get him/her to move more! Well, now it's all I do in the evening. It's simply amazing. Cannot get enough of it!!

Happy Anniversary-20 week Ultrasound
On our actual 2 year anniversary, we spent time together by going to our 20 Week ultrasound. It was a welcome relief to see Baby Fuller moving all over the place after the car accident two days prior. Baby Fuller was not always cooperating for "camera" shots, so it took a while to get these pictures! He/she loves to take his/her hands and put them in front of his/her face. It was adorable, of course. Also, the Ultrasound tech kept noticing that Baby Fuller was pouting, which the ultrasound tech at the ER also noticed. And then the big question as to which of us is the "pouter"...it might be mommy!
Baby Fuller measured 8 inches at 20 weeks, 5 days. (according to certain medical estimates, he/she is slightly large for estimated gestational age...consistent with previous ultrasounds)

A little pout!

Happy Anniversary!! Car Accident 11/7/2010
On our way to Longfellows on Sunday evening to celebrate our 2 year anniversary, we were in a car accident as we entered 87 north from exit 9. A silver car was tailgating Brian (driver) on the entrance ramp and then as soon as he could as we entered 87, that car crossed all the way over to the middle lane. But there was already a car in the middle lane that the silver car cut in front of. So, it seems that the car from the middle lane swerved towards us to miss the silver car and we think the car from the middle lane hit us forcing us to do a 360 spin.
So the rear driver's side ended up wrapped around the guardrail. Basically smashing into the guardrail is what stopped us from moving and spinning more. The tow truck guy said it was a real struggle detaching the car from the guardrail. Thank goodness for guardrails because it was a large hill we would have flown down if it wasn't there.

You will notice that the trunk was full of all my (Allison's) Madison Handbags stuff and everything is ok---phew!!
Driver's side--where Brian was. Both the front and rear axles were completely wrecked.
Passenger side--where Allison was--nothing was hit (the white marks on the front bumper are from pulling out of my garage spot months ago when someone was parked behind me in the driveway and I sort of scraped along the garage wall inaccurately navigating the turn--But, I don't have to get that fixed now!) Cannot believe that my side was spared---a guardian angel was looking out for us all.

Most adorable niece!
Caitlyn was helping Aunt Allison clean out the closet and drawers to get better organized. She got a little distracted after she found my glasses. And she paraded around wearing them for a bit! Now, she was already dressed in a very cute outfit, but I had some slipper socks that I purchased for her that added just a little bit of extra spunk to the ensemble. And, it may not seem evident by this photo, but she is wearing a tu-tu---OMG; Adorable.
And, with these glasses on, I can't help but think that we have a mini-Laura on our hands....

Baby Bump---amazing times!
Here I am a few days shy of the 20 week mark. So, if all goes as perfectly planned, I am technically half way through the pregnancy---cannot believe it. Time flies!
