Signs of life

17 weeks
a small bump
can you see it
still in my regular clothes
but probably not for long
i felt it
the flutters like a butterfly
so faint and soft
but real
first signs
of growing life
of new reality
a miracle

Oh my goodness! I've been "away" from blogging for way too long.

Wow, Congratulations! You look great. You barely show even with #5. I wish I'd been that way with either of mine.

Hope you're feeling well and have a great rest of your pregnancy!

Wow, 17 weeks, you're nearly half way there!

We'll be leaving Friday morning to drive to MO. We're hoping to get there Sunday morning.
I'm looking forward to meeting you in person! =)

You look GREAT...just the tiniest baby bump. I love your jeans (where are they from?) and purple is a great color on you. :)
