17 weeks

Well I'm starting to feel the baby move around in there. Especially at night when I'm trying to sleep. This same thing happened with Reese too. It's fun regardless of how uncomfortable it will be in just a few months. :-)

Today I went to a very special tea party for Suzanne. It's also her baby shower. Baby Gianna got so many cool things from her aunts and grandmas. Her friends did such a great job putting it together. Little shaped tea sandwiches, delicious herb teas, fun favors and games. We even decorated the onesies. We had a great time! I got to hold Liliana, Debra's 3 month old daughter for about an hour while she peacefully slept in my arms....

Going back in time a couple of weeks....

For Christmas Reese got so many new toys we're having to put a lot of things in the circular file. You know..... some stuff he doesn't even look at anymore.

I got some really cool gifts this year too...
