I am 13 weeks old today and I am the size of a Peach! Man, am I ever growing quick! I am nearly 3 inches long...I came a very long way since I started out about the size of a pen tip! Fingerprints are developing if not are already there on my little fingers and toes. My vocal chords developed and are working on being ready for when I greet the world! If I am a girl, my girl parts are developing inside of me. You still can't tell what I am from the outside...soon though! Some people say depending on where I am, you potentially could tell by 15 weeks! Mommy and Daddy won't know though until there 19 week appointment! That is, if I cooperate!
Mommy has been doing pretty good lately...She is still really tired and some intense cravings have started! One night, after Mommy got done with work, she called Daddy and asked him what he would like from Mcdonalds because she NEEDED chicken nuggets! Oh Mommy! She's so silly. She has been craving corn dogs too...which she is hoping stays a craving long enough for the State Fair! Mommy has been having some difficulties eating though. Not because she gets sick, but because she is just not hungry. She has been doing a lot of research on it because she thinks it has something to do with her Gastric Bypass surgery she had almost 3 years ago. She is just worried because she wants to make sure I am getting enough vitamins and nutrients seeing as its hard for even her to get them.
Aside from that, it has been pretty uneventful around here in the past week. My dog Jack has been cuddling a lot with mommy and never leaves her side. He is very protective of her and I love him for that! He is my buddy already and I can't wait until I get to meet him in real life!
Flooding is in full force where Mommy and Daddy live right now. They are trapped as Mommy would say. The Interstate shut down because of overland flooding and so Mommy and Daddy for sure wont be home until Memorial Day. I hope I can see everyone again then! I will get to tell everyone what I am!!! I cannot wait to get back to Minnesota, that's a nice place!
Okay world, until next week. I have a lot to look forward to this upcoming week as growing starts to become very rapid! Talk to you then!
Love you!

I have craved chicken mcnuggets and also corn dogs. Sometimes not the healthiest things, but it all balances out.
ReplyDeleteAnd don't worry, I didn't feel hungry either and nothing really seemed good, but you pretty much have to force yourself to eat SOMETHING! I got over that part about halfway into the 2nd trimester. So don't worry. :)
