The heat is KILLING me this summer. Its only running about 85˚F these days, but its a heat without a breeze and so - to me - it feels like walking out of my house and into an oven. 
I hate it! Avoid outdoors after morning until about 9pm...
I don't like being hot anyway though, even not pregnant. Once I start overheating I get incredibly bitchy and cranky. Its like instant. I can tolerate walking from vehicle to building, but ask me to spend 5 minutes sitting in the sun and I'm going to become intolerable.
I hate that about myself, but I just really hate being hot. Its why we live somewhere that has snow from October to late April 
I love the cold, even the really nasty -20˚F type of cold. 
Plans for the 4th... Nothing much, I don't think? We are going down to visit my sister for this next week, but I doubt we'll do any fireworks for the 4th, as its just recovering from a long drought where she is. We'll probably BBQ and drink ... lemonade. Going to the zoo and a baseball game and getting some BABY SHOPPING done while we're in an area with good shopping though!! 
My mother's intuition has been right twice now
I don't remember having a strong feeling either way with Ethan, though I was completely happy that he was a boy. I knew Parker was a boy, but tried to convince myself he was a girl because DH wanted a girl so badly -- still, I was thrilled with a second boy! And I've known this one to be a girl since the start... there would have had to be an undeniable penis on the ultrasound in order to convince me otherwise, and I still would have been shocked beyond belief. I still worry she's not REALLY a girl, but only because I have to have something to worry about.
buninthebelly - I was so anxious about my anatomy scan too. I had a feeling that everything was OK, but I was still so scared that it wasn't?? I went in feeling antsy that I'd be told the baby didn't have all its parts, and I came out so flooded with relief that I developed a mega headache that lasted 2 days I hadn't realized HOW anxious I was until we were told that she's healthy!
Names, anyone??? DH and I have a hard time agreeing on names. I've only made one list up so far for this baby - I had 18 names on the list, and he only liked one of them -- Zoey. But we've both agreed we need to keep looking, just in case we find something we like better, as I don't really feel that Zoey "fits", and I already know I panic enough after delivery about the name fitting the baby :ahah: But I've been looking on baby name sites and basically just keep making the same list of the same 5-10 top favorites of mine, all of which he has already nixed. I'm also drawing blanks on middle names - even if we go with Zoey, I am not coming up with something that sounds pretty with it.
Naming is hard!!

also enjoying before he start his new job. 
Also I started to make my baby registry but I'm not going to do a baby shower. I found an app for the baby registry that let me put things from different stores. This weekend grand grandma bough us the baby bathtub. 
Our method was just to read through a list rapidly and either go "never!" Or "hmm, maybe." Then if one of the maybes stuck in our heads we'd discuss it later.
and it really suits her 
Also I've been feeling ugly and fat and my husband tried to cheer me up and tried to buy me a shirt and was awful. 
There is nothing out there that fits me like I want and it's seems that theres a maternity section nowhere. Anyway we went with my husband family to the coast to see the sunset and walk a little bit and took some good pictures of the sunset, beach and city but now my legs and feet are painful lol. Hope everyone is feeling good. My 20w appointment is this friday and Im hoping to know the gender of my baby. Also I'm a little bit anxious because my doctor is going to read the trisomy test I hope everything goes ok in this test but I'm worried anyway.
