IT'S A BOY!!!

We went for an ultrasound to find out the sex of the baby (because I couldn't wait). When we got there the baby would not show the goods and had his legs crossed the entire time. I went to the bathroom and then came back and he had totally switched positions. We finally got a peek between the legs but it was for a real short time. The ultrasound tech told me to cough a few times to see if the baby would turn and that's exactly what he did. We were so excited to find out it was a boy. It's going to be fun having one of each and buying lots of blue instead of pink. Charlotte is excited to have a brother and talks to him daily and kisses my belly.

15 Weeks

Baby's now the size of a naval orange!
Continuing the march toward normal proportions, baby's legsnow out-measure his arms. And, finally, all four limbs have functional joints. Your fetus is squirming and wiggling like crazy down in the womb, though you probably can't feel the movements just yet.

14 Weeks

Baby's now the size of a lemon!
Your adorable little fetus is busy with thumb sucking, toe wiggling, (not so cute but equally amazing) making urine, and breathing amniotic fluid as the liver, kidneys, and spleen continue to develop. Lanugo (thin, downy hair) is growing all over her body for warmth

Just Peachy

Baby's now the size of a peach!
Your fetus is forming teeth and vocal cords...savor this, their nonfunctional phase. Baby is approaching normal proportions, with his head now only one third the size of his body. And intestines are in the process of moving from the umbilical cord to baby's tummy -- much more convenient.

12 Weeks

Baby's now the size of a plum!
As you move into the second trimester, baby shifts into the growth and maturation stage. After weeks in the critical development stage, almost all of her systems are fully formed

Our Little Baby

Here are some pictures of our new little guy/girl. Everything looks healthy and on track and we couldn't be happier. December just needs to hurry up and get here so we can meet this little cutie!!

11 Weeks

Baby's now the size of a lime!
Your fetus currently enjoys a 1:1 ratio between body and head, and has skin so transparent that blood vessels show right through it. But fingers and toes are no longer webbed, and hair follicles, tooth buds, and nail beds are forming -- setting up a significantly more attractive future
