Baby #2 - Weeks 19 through 21

Eeeek, I'm way behind, but here's an update of weeks 19-21!  The best part of this time frame was the fact that I was finally slowly getting into feeling great and into the 2nd trimester "honeymoon" stage of the pregnancy.  It made such a difference!  More energy, more stamina, and no throwing up!  I also had my anatomy scan, a visit from family, and started to somewhat organize and decorate the baby's space in our room.
