Momma Has Grown!!!

After seeing the pictures below, it is rather obvious that Baby is growing and so is Momma!! I think it is my belly this time though. (Not so much my butt!) Or at least everything seems to be in proportion! :) It is very neat for me to see myself get bigger as this little being grows inside of me!! See the pics below! The first was when I was 10 weeks and the second was yesterday at 16 weeks.

Kung Fu

So the baby is playing Kung Fu today. When we went to the sonogram on Friday we saw him/her moving her arms all around, but Momma is feeling it today! I actually just felt him/her as I am typing this. The first time (ever) that I felt him/her was last Friday. Since then I hadn't really felt much movement, but I sure feel it today!!! It is truly a neat experience!!! :) So much fun!!!

Week 16

An avocado. From the sonogram Friday we found out that the baby weighs about 4 oz, not the 3 1/2 like the babycenter.com says. :) But I guess babycenter.com says their information is on "general information." See what it says about the 16th week of pregnancy "in general." :)

How your baby's growing:Get ready for a growth spurt. In the next few weeks, your baby will double his weight and add inches to his length. Right now, he's about the size of an avocado: 4 1/2 inches long (head to rump) and 3 1/2 ounces. His legs are much more developed, his head is more erect than it has been, and his eyes have moved closer to the front of his head. His ears are close to their final position, too. The patterning of his scalp has begun, though his locks aren't recognizable yet. He's even started growing toenails. And there's a lot happening inside as well. For example, his heart is now pumping about 25 quarts of blood each day, and this amount will continue to increase as your baby continues to develop.

And We Are Blessed With...

A healthy baby! We weren't able to for sure find out the gender of the little one, but it was still very neat to see how much bigger "it" was since the last sonogram!!! So much has changed. It actually looks like a baby, not just a blob!!! We got to see all the organs, arms, hands, feet, fingers, and toes!!! There was so much to see!!We even watched the heart beat in the little chest!! Posted below are some of the pics we were able to bring home this time!! We will hopefully have different ones in a few weeks! Enjoy, we did!

For anyone who wants to make any predictions (or change their prediction), you will want to do it soon. We may just know for sure tomorrow!!! :)

Happy Birthday Gpa Oakley!!!

Sonogram Date Moved Up!

I had a message from the doctor's office that the sonogram that was supposed to be scheduled for next months appointment has been moved up! It is going to be this coming Friday, June 6th! Although, I know we may not be able to determine the gender for sure yet, I am still excited at the possibility of finding out this soon! Maybe we will get lucky! Everyone keep your fingers crossed!! :)
