February 26th, 2008 - Unsung Hero!

I wanted to let you know how great a job Samari has been doing assisting you with your development. The doctor informed your Mommy that she must always try and keep her belly warm to help promote optimum blood flow. This is extremely important right now because it is the blood that delivers the oxygen and nutrients required for your ongoing growth. Each day when Mommy lays down on the couch to rest, Samari always positions himself right next to you with the sole purpose of keeping you warm. He is doing a fantastic job!

Twenty-One Weeks!

This is a picture of Mommy at 21 weeks! She is really excited because she can now feel you kicking around inside of her! Right now you are about 10 inches long and weigh between appoximetaly 14 oz. We are still amazed at the fact that you are entering your fifth month of existence! It almost seems like yesterday that we received your positive pregnancy result!

Twenty Week Anomaly Scan!

Today was your 20 week anomaly scan and your results were fantastic! The primary purpose of this scan was to tell us how well you are developing. All of your bone structures, vital organs and blood flow are measuring where they should right now. The doctor was extremely pleased with your results and said you are developing into a beautiful healthy little baby girl!

Nineteen Weeks!

Your Mommy's nesting instincts have definitely kicked into full-gear! Now that she has her energy back, she is taking full advantage of every second in each day. She has already accounted for everything that you will need for the next couple of years and beyond. I keep trying to tell her to take it easy and slow down a bit, but she is unable to quell the surge of energy she feels right now. I would imagine at the end of the second tri-mester things will slow down dramatically. We can't wait to see you on Thusday when you have your next scan!

Eighteen Weeks!

This is a picture of Mommy at 18 weeks! She is doing much better than she was a couple of weeks ago. Her appetite and energy have really improved! Now that she knows that you are a girl, she is spending a lot of her time planning your new room. I hope you like the color pink!
