15 weeks

I am a few days behind getting my 15 week post up. Boy, every since I started blogging I feel like the weeks are flying. I blog one weekt then the next time I turn around I feel like I am blogging for the next week. This week our baby is about 4.5 inches long. This truly amazes me just thinking about how I have a 4.5 inch human being inside of me. This week our baby is also growing fingernails and toenails, the three bones in our baby's ear are developing, the arms and legs are able to move all around, as well as, the baby being able to do somersaults and move all around. (This update is not as thorough BUT I am on a very slow network and I am not able to easily pull up a website to find out what exactly is going on, haha)
I also think that I have changed my mind on part of the nursery furniture. Orginally I was going to have a crib, changing table, dresser, and a glider, but I have been looking and found that they have changing tables and dressers all in one. Although the nursery is not small, I really feel like this will save a lot of room and not leave the nursery feeling like it has wall to wall furniture in it. Here is the one that I like:
This week I also started our stock pile of diapers. Since I was only at Kroger, there was not really that many options/sizes of packages. For newborn, I could only find a 36 pack but it was on sale so I took advantage and I got a package of size 1 that were on sale too. I plan on starting to stock up NOW so that when the baby gets here we might not be running to the store ALL the time.... or maybe we will but I like to think that this might help in the long run!
The thing that that I find odd is that when I wake up in the morning I NEVER look pregnant. I just look thicker then normal. BUT as the day goes on it is as if my stomach just grows and sticks out more. I know this sounds so weird but I guess unless you are me you won't really understand ;) BUT the other morning I woke up and I looked like I had a baby bump. I say this because some days I look pregnant and some days I feel like everything has disappeared. So here is a picture of the day I woke up with a baby bump....

We go back July 1st for our sonogram. This would normally be the "gender revealing sonogram" BUT I guess it will just be a time for us to see our little one. I keep thinking that one day I will wake up and we will have decided to find out the gender... but it's not likely. This has proven to be more difficult for me then I thought it would. The thing that I Have most trouble with is deciding what to decorate the room in. I can not find anything that LOVE. So mom and I are going to start looking for fabrics to make our own bedding. Another thing that I struggle with is the comment from others. I try to ignore them but some are uncalled for and some are just down right rude. My pregnancy rant for today: I know it's hard to find "gender neutral" things so if it bothers someone that much then they do not have to buy us anything. That's all until 16 weeks!!!
