Baby's skeleton is hardening, changing from rubbery cartilage to bone, and fat is finally accumulating around it. The umbilical cord is getting thicker and stronger, and those little fingers and toes are now topped by one-of-a-kind prints.
So another week has passed and I still haven't felt any movements, so who knows when that will come!! The nurse at my doctors appointment this week said that it was still early to feel anything and that a lot of people don't feel it until 22 or so weeks, so that makes me feel better. Brian and I are really looking forward to the day that we can find out what we are having!! I'm going to take that day off work for that appointment, and then I can go shopping for boy or girl things that afternoon!!!! haha! I'm a nerd I know!! I am just so anxious to find out. Brian and I were at the mall for a bit this morning returning a couple of things, and we saw some cute boy clothes, and some cute girl things, so we are just ready to know what we have in there!
Still no word yet on our blood test results, but they did say 7-10 days, so it hasn't been that long yet! We are obviously saying our prayers that the test comes back negative!!
I got a call from my mom today who is up at Camp Perry with my dad this week, and is crocheting my first baby blanket!!! She called me today and said that while she was sitting there while my dad was shooting, working on my blanket, that it hit her that 27 years ago, she was doing the same thing at Camp Perry...but that time, she was making me a baby blanket!!!! Isn't that funny?! hahaha. I thought it was really cute! She is making me a white, lavender, green, and yellow baby blanket!! I think it will be beautiful!!! I know that between her and Nana making us blankets our little one will never get cold!! :)

your mom is an Excellent baby-blanket-maker!
