Seasons Greetings from the reasonable sized bump

Well half way through week 15 here and things are really starting to show. The baby is now approximately the size of a softball (sorry we had to move to sports balls as fruit just was not adequate enough anymore). Steph can no longer suck in her tummy to make it look like her usual self. The belly is protruding and there is no turning back now. I keep trying to listen for any sign of life in there but all I can hear is her ever hungry belly. We saw our midwife last week and we heard our babies heart beat roaring, it goes at a pretty fast pace so that was pretty cool. The doctors say that we should feel the baby by the end of this week so if the placenta would move a little bit so that we could in fact feel the baby then that would be great. Everything is healthy, Stephs energy level is really good.

Tomorrow December 22nd is travel day, Grandma and Grandpa MacKenzie as well as everyone else are getting a little itchy so we are making a trip out to spend a week and a half with them and share this awesome time with them as well. It is so hard to believe that we are already almost done week 15 of potentially 40.......so exciting. A picture should be coming pretty soon just be patient.

See you soon family MacKenzie
