Wow - what a difference a week makes! Last Monday I was still just barely feeling any sort of movements or kicks, and now this week, I'm feeling them quite frequently. Unfortunately, still nothing hard enough that Mr can feel them. I really hope it doesn't take 4 weeks for him to start feeling them. That's the reference my OB gave me. Once I start feeling them, it should be about 4 weeks before they can be felt from the outside.

I've decided baby likes hot meals. Especially soup. Boy did she get active when I finished my Chicken Wild Rice soup yesterday! Since that's my absolute favorite soup, I thought it was pretty cute that she'd get super active afterwards. She must have enjoyed it too.

Since I did a show and tell of my diaper bag, I thought I'd include a couple of pictures of the daddy on the go bag. It's the Little Tripper by Land's End. He's got the black one with the red front. It seems like a pretty cool daddy bag. It's kind of small, but looks like it'll hold a lot. Perfect for those quick trips with daddy.



Project land is growing and growing. I still haven't made any more progress on the quilt. We had a little trouble with the wall letters and added a window covering to the ever growing list of things we want to do. Good thing we still have plenty of time before baby comes. We just might get through everything with time to spare. Maybe.

Let your spouse put an ear to your belly -- he might be able to pick up baby's heartbeat (no stethoscope required). Inside the womb, the formation of tiny capillaries is giving baby a healthy pink glow. Baby's also soaking up your antibodies, getting the immune system ready for life outside the womb. Eyes are forming, and baby will soon perfect the blink -- perfect for batting those freshly grown lashes.
