Size of a Naval Orange

Continuing the march toward normal proportions, baby's legs now out-measure his arms. And, finally, all four limbs have functional joints. Your fetus is squirming and wiggling like crazy down in the womb, though you probably can't feel the movements just yet.

Thought I would share where we are in our process.  It is fun to image our little XP as the size of an orange now.  This has been a pretty rough week for me...maybe the baby has been squirming so much that is making me sick but for whatever reason the second trimester "honeymoon" period isn't happening for this mommy!  I can't wait for the day when i don't feel sick and tired.  We are heading to the doctor next week to listen more to the heartbeat and run more tests.  Hopefully we will have more photos to share.  

Thanks for reading!

The Bean at 12 Weeks



We are so happy to show our little bean to the world. Or as my dad calls it "XP" X for no name and no sex and P for Polihronis. I have finally hit my second trimester and for the last 3 days I have started to feel like I am finally back to myself, I can stay up past 9PM and I can eat whatever I want without feeling bad. YEAH!!! Over the last 3 days all I have wanted is lots of orange I guess "XP" likes vitamin C. John has been so great - taking care of both of us. What a good dad he is going to make.

We got our new bedroom furniture and entertainment center. We have a beautiful King Size bed. Which will be perfect for the 3 of us. Rub-a-Dub-Dub :) It is so nice and comfy. A little high it comes up to my waist - should be pretty funny as I get bigger to watch me get up on the bed.

Keep watching for more posts!
