18 Weeks. This week, your bones are starting to harden and you're able to start hearing my voice. You're even yawning and your heartbeat is steady. You are now a whopping five and a half inches long from head to tail and your nerves are developing. So exciting.
Here's what I look like now, little one:
 |
| Belly poking out, little by little. |

| Side shot! |
I haven't gained much weight (and in fact, I think I've lost some since my last appointment). I've been trying to eat better and drink lots of water, plus I'm walking 3-4 times a week while at work. That helps, too. As long as you're growing like you need to, little one, I"m okay with that.
This Christmas - your first Christmas! - we are spending a couple of days down in Alyeska. I booked our hotel room today and had to say that we would have two adults and one child! Later tonight, when I was talking with your daddy, I mentioned that "just the three of us" would drive down to the resort together... and it stopped me mid-sentence! It was the first time I had mentioned "the three of us" referring to our little family. Yay. Can't wait to celebrate with you!
Love,
Mama
