Week Fifteen!!!

Hello everyone! Hope you had an awesome Memorial Day weekend honoring people like my Daddy and enjoying time with your family.

Splash Day at Cici and RB's was fun, I can't wait 'till next year when I can join and splish, splash in the pool with my big brother Jr. Check him out in his "Big Brother" bandana Mommy made for him!

 

We also had some fun at Daddy's parents' house for some yummy food and to hang out. Cici's birthday is this week, so Mommy made her a sign!

On to me! This week I am the size of an orange!
Check it out:

This week I'm growing, growing. Gaining weight and inches in my head to booty measurement. I am moving my little fingers and toes now. My legs are longer than my arms (getting all proportional) and have functioning joints in them, so Mommy is going to start feeling me squirming in a few weeks. My ears and eyes are moving to their spots, I am looking good these days! I am still practicing my breathing for the big day! 

Mommy is gaining weight, now. She was losing weight last trimester, but that has caught up with her. She's supposed to be averaging about one pound per week, but Mommy doesn't believe in scales, so she leaves the weighing in to the doc. Since I am taking every nutrient I can get from her, she is having to eat lots of snacks and small meals to stay on her feet so she doesn't get dizzy... taking Jr out to potty in the morning going down to the first floor and back up to the third before breakfast is not going to work, anymore. So Jr gets to wait for Mommy to eat a cereal bar before taking that journey. 

We have a Dr. appointment on Friday, so I'll update you next week on how that went and hopefully Mommy and Daddy will get to schedule the 3D sonogram to make sure all of my organs and major features are doing what they're supposed to be doing (the most important part of the visit) but the 3D doc may also be able to tell if I have or don't have certain parts (the hoo-haa and yee-haw) which is going to be really exciting for Mommy and Daddy to find out! They say it takes until week 20 to determine the sex, but Mommy has done some research and the new 3D machines can see a lot better than those older black and white sonos, so they may get lucky! 

See you next week!!
