How your baby's growing

Head to heels, your baby now measures about 13 1/2 inches. Her weight — a pound and a half — isn't much more than an average rutabaga, but she's beginning to exchange her long, lean look for some baby fat. As she does, her wrinkled skin will begin to smooth out and she'll start to look more and more like a newborn. She's also growing more hair — and if you could see it, you'd now be able to discern its color and texture.

Amy's been moving a lot lately. Some days more than others. Brandon felt her move a few days ago and just thought it was strange :)

I've also been doing a lot better on my weight, so hopefully my doctor won't get mad at me this time. We got Wii Fit, so I've been exercising a bit. It calculates BMI, but of course doesn't account for the baby in my belly, so it just says I'm quite a bit overweight :P

I have to go get my glucose screen this week though, so wish me luck on that!

Everything has been great lately though. Me and Brandon went and got ice cream at Ben & Jerry's yesterday, and that was delicious. We're very happy with this apartment and the surrounding area. I've been sleeping a lot better. Everything has just been really good.

We're gonna be dog sitting this week, and we can't wait! We haven't had a dog since Lexi before we moved, and we've missed her like crazy, so it will be nice to have another dog in the apartment.
