Pregnancy Update 21 Weeks

It's hard to believe but I keep finding reasons to be surprised at how very fast time flies. You'd think I'd be more used to it by now :) 

Baby #8, we'll find out the baby's sex at the next ultrasound on the 27th, is already 21 weeks! If you follow my Facebook page (The Griggs Family Homestead) you may have seen last week that I posted that Baby #8 was half baked :) I'll make sure and post when we find out if he's a he or she's a she. Papa and I actually agree this time that he's a he and in the way life works: we have a girls name but not a boys name. But who knows we could both be wrong! :) It's been known to happen. 

Baby is active and I'm feeling movement almost every day. Mostly in the evening and early morning. Most of my morning sickness is gone as well with just the tiredness here to stay apparently. And yes, I'm resting often and pacing myself. We have been crazy busy but I take several more rest/water breaks then normal and make sure I get at least a rest, if not a nap, almost every afternoon. G&G Griggs were just up for a visit, more about that in a later post, and I got a nap/rest every day that they were here! Super nice! Thanks Mom!
