Keeping Up With The Darlings

Wednesday, May 7, 2008

Meghan's belly at 21 weeks....yesterday, we took this picture...and we also felt the first kicks and punches on the outside of the belly! The little Darlings are quite active in there, fighting with each other and hitting Meghan's belly! It felt pretty cool feeling the baby's for the first time.
