Oh yeah...

I weigh a whole half a pound! I can TOTALLY fit into those cute skinny jeans....

It's a girl!!

So I FINALLY got a look between my legs today, and there's NOTHING THERE! They tell me that means I'm a "girl" but I don't know much about gender issues yet. I think mostly this means my parents only have to argue about one kind of name, instead of trying to come up with two. Also, my dad made some comment about "never being allowed to wear anything with writing across the butt" and something about "killing any boy who even LOOKS at me". Again, all this adult stuff confuses me. I don't even know what a "boy" is!



All my parts look ok, at least as far as we can tell at 18 weeks. You can see some pics of them here. I'm still planning on joining the world on or around March 31st. My mom might be having another ultrasound around 30 weeks to make sure the placenta completely moves out of my way (the vast majority do).
Looking forward to meeting everyone! (especially these "boys" ;-)

Whole lotta shakin going on!

I've been active!  Just the past few days, my mom has noticed a few "gas bubbles" that were more likely me stretching my constantly growing limbs!  Every now and then she says "whoah...I think I just got kicked"!  Dad can't feel them yet, I'm still only about 5 inches long.

Oh yeah...almost forgot!  Tomorrow I find out if I'm a boy or a girl!  It's rough not being able to peer over your own belly and see for yourself (not that I'd know what I was looking at...I'm too young for that kind of thing!)

My first post!

Well...this must be a first...I'm blogging and don't even know my own GENDER yet, much less have my own internet access or email account! Kids these days...

Welcome friends and family to the place where my parents-to-be will be posting information and updates about my development and progress towards this thing they call "delivery". If you're lucky, they might even post pictures and videos of me once I'm here! Keep checking the site for updates.

As of this past Thursday, I'm 16 weeks and counting. My official due date is March 31st, but we'll see how THAT goes! On the 27th, my mom gets more pictures taken, and if she's lucky, they'll tell her and Dad exactly what parts I come with. Maybe I'll even get a name at some point after that!

All this dictating has gotten me tired (what...you thought I was typing? Nope, this is courtesy of my dad...I've just last week started forming fingernails!) Time to take another loop of the old womb and keep on chugging away making organs like eyes, ears, and other parts! More soon!
