19 Weeks! Almost to the Half - Way Mark!

I am 19 weeks along, and I was shocked when
I got the latest email, letting me know what's
going on. Look at the picture! My poor baby
is all squished! (that picture is from a website)
Today I have really been feeling some
movement - it feels like popcorn popping!
So crazy! Here is what the email from
www.babycenter.com said: Your baby weighs
about 8 1/2 ounces and measures 6 inches,
head to bottom — about the size of a large heirloom
tomato. The hair on its scalp is sprouting. This
is a crucial time for sensory development: Your
baby's brain is designating specialized areas
for smell, taste, hearing, vision, and touch. It
may be able to hear you as you talk. :)

What, you don't sleep with your legs wrapped around your face??? So amazing, isn't it? I am glad you are feeling the peanut moving now. It is crazy, huh?
