Your baby now weighs about three-quarters of a pound and is approximately 10 1/2 inches long — the length of a carrot. You may soon feel like he's practicing martial arts as his initial fluttering movements turn into full-fledged kicks and nudges. You may also discover a pattern to his activity as you get to know him better. In other developments, your baby's eyebrows and lids are present now.
Note: Every baby develops a little differently — even in the womb. Our information is designed to give you a general idea of your baby's development.

I'm definitely feeling Ryan move more. I've actually been feeling "flutters" since about 11 weeks. Yesterday however, I was sitting at my desk working and I actually got a nice strong jolt that actually stopped me for a second. These are the things that I can't wait for Steve to actually feel.

20 week ultrasound pictures
Ok, sorry everyone got a tad busy last night with taking my "preteen" who apparently now has a social life to her friends house after dinner so I'm just now getting a chance to post these pictures. Hope you enjoy, they are not as clear as the 16 week pics because he was so active. Amazing how much he has grown!!
No, he is not flipping us off :-)
On tummy, face down, spine shot
Looking straight at us 
Hey YOU! (Finger pointing) 
STILL A BOY!!! No need for mom to return things WOOHOO!

Still a boy!!
I know some of you are patiently waiting for an update so I will make this quick . . .
We had our 20 week (20 week 5 day to be exact) ultrasound this morning and all went PERFECT. We were not even in there for 30 min because the tech got all she needed to. In just 4 weeks it is amazing how much he has grown.
She asked us if we were keeping the sex a surprise or if we knew. I told her that a reconfirmation would be great, so she told me not to tell her what we already knew. Thankfully she reconfirmed that there is still an "outtie" and we have a little boy! Pointed out the penis, scrotum and all. Yikes these are words I guess I need to get use to!
We got a great view of the heart and chambers as well as kidneys. The tech was funny and said that Ryan had a nice round tummy, we started laughing and Steve chimed in with "it must run in the family". He's lucky I was in a good mood and laughed with him haha.
Right now he is laying transverse, with his head to my right side. This confirmed the feelings in my ribs I was having last week. He is moving in the right direction, at our last ultrasound he was breech.
I asked her if she knew how big he was and she said that before 23 weeks its a little hard to tell but if she had to guess she would say around 1lb right now. So all in all it was a GREAT appt.
I will scan the pictures in and post them hopefully tonight.
