A Bump in the Night

Well, not just in the night!  My baby bump is making it's appearance this week.  It's getting harder to look in the mirror and say that there's nothing there yet!  I guess you could say the bump is obvious if you think of me as a woman of child-bearing age but it's not apparent if you don't realize I want children (or you're male!).

Baby is still hovering at the size of a mango, but s/he has reached approximately half a pound in weight!  I think it's pretty cool that we've progressed to thinking about him/her in terms of pounds instead of ounces.  S/he has been making small occasional movements that feel like little bubbles making their way past my belly.  This happens mostly in the evening, when I've finally stopped cleaning and/or nesting for the day.

Craig and I are really excited because his mom announced that she was generously buying the crib & mattress we had put on one of our registries.  That's one big item that we are so happy is now out of the way.  Plus, it's really cool that it's coming from one of the baby's Grandmas!

Thanks Grandma!
