Weeks 19-21

It's a girl! And what a girl she is...check out the acrobatics! We're already hoping she'll get a gymnastics scholarship. No pressure, though...

Chris didn't get to come to the ultrasound with me, so we're getting a 4-D one done on June 1. Hopefully, we'll get some better pictures of her face, then. Less skeletal. From what I could see, though, she's a cutie! She was sucking her thumb, just like her mommy did! I wonder what she has that's like her daddy...we'll have to check out those computer skills ASAP!

She's moving around like a pro, and she either loves it or hates it when I've eaten a big meal, because that's when she moves the most. We'll say she loves it! Supposedly, whatever the pregnant woman eats frequently, the baby will develop a taste for. This girl is going to love Yoo Hoo and sandwiches!

I'm not quite big enough for people to walk up to me and try to touch my belly all the time...fine by me! I never was comfortable with all the touching that happens to pregnant women. A kid touched me in the hall on my way out of school on Friday, but I was on the phone with Chris about a flight mishap, so I didn't have time to slap her hand away! Hopefully, the baby gave her a swift kick. Maybe we should apply for some soccer scholarships too!

Current Baby Size: 10 inches. If she were a White Bass we'd have to throw her back.
Current Baby Weight: 12 0z., or about like a Wendy's Triple with Cheese*
