Ultrasound:142 Days to Go (Halfway there!)!

Today we had our ultrasound! Baby Grate looks great (hahaha).... Everything measured perfectly, everything looked wonderfully developed and baby even showed off its skills by swallowing, stretching , opening and closing its fist and of course hiccuping!!! Our little bundle is quite active and was punching and kicking a lot too! It was so great and reassuring to hear that the baby was developing correctly!

Baby is about 7inches crown to rump but about 11 1/2inches from head to toe
Our baby weighs exactly 11 oz  that is in the 51% for weight. The ultrasound tech said we are on par to have about a 7 pound baby! The Baby's size is measuring 19weeks and 4 days which is just one day less than I am actually am!
We still don't know if it is a boy or a girl, daddy didn't want to know, and mommy let him make this VERY VERY important choice (he better remember that!!)

I am feeling fine, other than complete exhaustion after a VERY long week/weekend at work this week. Summer is a pretty busy time for me and I am still very worn out from all the work that went into the Backyard Bible Clubs and the Summer ICE program! It was a blast but very exhausting!  I have also gained just over ten pounds now.... which means I gained almost eight this past month... I think I better slow down... Here's a pic of me today...

And more importantly, here is baby Grate
