Officially 20 Weeks

Half Baked at 20 Weeks

This weekend marked 20 weeks! It also marked the first time I met the Intended Parents' extended family and friends. We attended their son's fifth birthday party on Sunday. I met the IM's mom, the IP's parents and brothers, nephews, and neighbors. It was actually a bit overwhelming, and the first time I felt awkward during this process. It was great to put faces to names, but the attention was a little uncomfortable. Plus, I felt like my little family was on display all day. That being said, they were all wonderful, and certainly didn't make me feel judged. Quite the opposite. Everyone was gushing about how wonderful of a blessing this is and expressing their gratitude. It was just an interesting place to be in and new energy to hold.
