Things are good in pregnancyland. I'm feeling good these days and I'm still not big enough to have problems with that. I believe this is what they call the second trimester honeymoon period. I have been feeling lots of kicks and wiggles lately. They are getting stronger, so I am noticing them more during the day. I used to only be able to feel them in the morning and at night when things are quiet and I was relaxing. Those are still the favored times for Belly Bean(Thanks for the new nickname, Mari!) to have a party in there, but there is a little more activity during the busier times now.
Last night while Ryan was sitting in my lap Belly Bean gave a big kick right where he was leaning. I was sure he could feel it. I tried having him put his hand on my tummy, but no more kicks:-( When he put his hand on my belly he did say "baby." I was pretty doubtful that he understood anything about mommy's growing belly, but he surprises me all the time.
Zach has been saying "Goodnight, baby" to my belly for a while now. He likes to give it a kiss and lean his head on it.
Jay has been talking to the new bean too. BB recently developed ear bones and can distinguish sounds now. Daddy's voice will be nice and familiar when BB makes the big appearance.
We have an ultrasound scheduled for October 6, so hopefully I will be able to stop avoiding pronouns soon!

Pregnancy seems to go much faster when I am observing someone elses! I am glad that you are feeling well!
Yay for snuggles and kisses from sweet boys. They are so cute with the Belly Bean!
I'm so glad you're feeling better. Love you.
Do the rest of get to know, or are you going to check us guessing?
keep us guessing. Its been a long day.
Christina- get to know what?
what pronoun to be using :)
I'll probably share. I'm not big on secrets.
Yay for sharing ultrasound results! October 6th...how exciting!!!!!!!
I'm glad you like the new nickname. It's the one we used for Matt when the development books said he was about the size of a jellybean, and it stuck.
Take photos of Ryan kissing your belly. Those are the best. I saw a gorgeous bxw one of a mom who was wearing a button-down oxford that was unbuttoned from the top of the stomach, and opened to highlight the "bump", with a shot of a little boy kissing the baby through the opening. I'm not sure if I was clear there, but it was a truly adorable photo.
Enjoy the honeymoon phase!
Yep, I have my fingers crossed for a girl, but of course I'll be happy either way.
