What's happening with the baby:
The fetus now measures 2.5 inches crown to rump and weighs between 0.3 and 0.5 ounces. It is fully formed from tooth buds to toenails and the baby's job will be to continue getting larger and stronger for the rest of the pregnancy. With the most critical development behind the fetus the risk of miscarriage drops considerably after this week.
I found a new aversion last night--Taco Bell!! Yuck, it makes me so sick. It's strange because I crave Mexican, but I guess this pregnancy settles the debate...Taco Bell is NOT Mexican!
I'm feeling pretty good otherwise. I am really tired again, so bedtime is around 8 or 9 on nights that I don't have class and I take 2-3 hour naps on the weekends. I am starting to feel crazy about the house not always being perfectly clean. I feel like it's full of germs and I need to mop 3 times a day. I don't, but I feel like I need to.
I think Scout is as excited about the baby as we are! We went on a walk yesterday and every small child we walked by, she just couldn't get enough. She about ripped my arm off trying to run across the street because she saw a 2 year old little girl. She especially adores them when they are babies up to age 3.
Well I'm off to do some homework now...check out the new pictures I posted and don't forget to vote on what you think we're going to have!
