Balloons and baby kicks

So a little while ago, Brian, Lily, and I went to the Ogden balloon festival in Eden. It was such a great experience to see hot air balloons that close up. I never really realized how big those balloons really are. It's surreal. Lily couldn't get enough of it. She was ecstatic to see balloons that big. She kept telling us she wanted to go up in one. She thinks she's braver than she is. One of the best things we got to see was called the "balloon glow." When nightfall finally arrives, the balloons illuminate the dark sky. It's like a gigantic firefly display. We loved it!



I had my 14 week OB appointment (I'm 15 weeks now) and everything is going great. I'm loving the 2nd trimester already so much more than the first. I feel so much better, not nearly so tired. My baby bump has really not grown too much. I still can't wear my maternity clothes. The most amazing thing about being pregnant the 2nd time is that I can actually feel my baby move already! Every night I can feel little baby kicks. They feel like little pinkies pressing on my tummy. I love knowing I have a precious little baby growing inside me. Lily's so excited to be a big sister. I think she's going to be great! Another great thing is that 2 weeks from today we get to find out if we're having a boy or a girl. My money's on a boy. I'll be surprised if I'm wrong. I guess we'll wait and see.
