21 Weeks (and 4 days)!

Here's what's happening with the Little Miss this week:

She now weighs about three-quarters of a pound and is about 10 1/2 inches head to heel - about the length of a carrot!

In other developments, the Little Miss' eyebrows and lids are present now. Since we're having a girl, her vagina has begun to form as well. I will soon feel like the Little Miss is practicing martial arts as her initial fluttering movements turn into full-fledged kicks and nudges. I should begin to notice a pattern to her activity as I get to know her better inside the womb. I have to say, I wasn't thrilled with the 2am party in the womb the other night. Doesn't she know her Mama needs her rest!?

Here's the 21 weeks belly pic, taken at 21 weeks, 2 days:



In other updates, we're making slow progress on the nursery. We managed to clear most of the contents on Saturday and picked up most of the furniture today. The crib wouldn't fit in the vehicles we had available so we're borrowing a friend's truck to pick up the crib Monday. So now our nursery has a combo dresser and glider! Yay! We still need to paint all the walls but that's going to have to wait until after our upcoming vacation. I'll update with nursery pictures soon!
