22 wks

We are 55.0% of the way there!

At 11 inches (the length of a spaghetti
i squash) and almost 1 pound, your baby is starting to look like a miniature newborn. His lips, eyelids, and eyebrows are becoming more distinct, and he's even developing tiny tooth buds beneath his gums. His eyes have formed, but his irises (the colored part of the eye) still lack pigment. If you could see inside your womb, you'd be able to spot the fine hair (lanugo) that covers his body and the deep wrinkles on his skin, which he'll sport until he adds a padding of fat to fill them in. Inside his belly, his pancreas — essential for the production of some important hormones — is developing steadily.
I stay hot with this baby, thank goodness for dresses! What is sad is it's only March! By May 1st You'll find me floating around in Nino's pool everyday I'm sure!

I thought I would share some of my cravings that I've had with this youngin.
~Corn Flakes with a Banana and milk
~Smoothies (tropical flavors)
~Chicago style hot dogs...(you know mustard, relish, sauerkraut,celery seeds, and tomato's)
not my usual thing at all!
~Cranberry, pecan & apple salads with Briannas Poppy Seed Dressing
~Any kind of meats really...This must be a "boy" thing
~I really love Pei Wei! I could eat it every day!
~Sharp Cheddar with crackers.
Last but not least strawberries! (Thank goodness they're on sale right now!)
