Greetings from Bali/Lombok!

We arrived at Gili Trawangan island (an island off of Lombok) Friday morning local time. Mark and I took a flight to Senggigi and then a boat for 1 1/2 hours to get to the island. It's really beautiful! Very similar to Boracay - paradise! So relaxing! Mark and I had spa treatments and massages and have been hanging out with a few foreigners we met on the island. We will probably leave back to Bali on Tuesday and head to Ubud for a day or two. Everything is going great!
The baby is doing well. I'm pretty sure now that I have started feeling the "flutters" from the baby. The first really noticable one was when Mark and I were at LAX waiting to leave for Bali. It feels like a rolling push, similar to having gas/indigestion - sort of like a twitch/spasm in your stomach. :) I usually feel it in my lower mid-abdomen. I've also noticed that the lower part of my belly is getting harder. The upper part of my belly (above the navel) is still somewhat soft. We're not able to post a new belly pic from here since we are logging in from an internet cafe and cannot connect our camera. We will upload a new one as well as some vacation pics when we get back to Bali (where we are able to connect to the internet using our own computer).
Hope all is well back in the states!

I am 19 1/2 weeks today and this is what my baby is doing: http://pregnancy.baby-gaga.com/calendar/week19

Here are a few pics we took from the Gili islands. Enjoy...
