Well, after the 20 week point the baby is no longer compared to a fruit in terms of size. Now, they compare the baby to a fruit in terms of length. Either way- baby is as long as a banana!
Here is a pic of Q1-13's foot! :)
Here is the long strip of photos they gave us. We were both a little disappointed with the quality. We thought we would get to see more distinct features, but I guess that will be the ultrasound we have in the 3rd trimester. They did put the images on a disc, which was nice.
Matt did a lot of work on the basement this weekend, built the shelves for Q1-13's closet, andddddddddddd put together the crib!!!!! :) :) I'm so excited! It's a 4 in one crib (it will turn into a daybed later, and a headboard eventually as the baby gets older). I'll post pics after we announce the gender. We are finalizing details for the theme for Q1-13's room.Matt had an exciting weekend, while I had a restful weekend (but not the good kind of restful). I came down with a horrible cold rather quickly late Thursday night (stress induced, no doubt). I barely slept Thursday night as my throat was on fire, and I woke up Friday feeling completely miserable. Friday was awful, but I came home after cross and fell asleep on the couch around 6:30. Other than getting up for dinner, I was in bed between the hours of 8 pm and 7 am the next morning. After the cross country meet, I took a 3 hour nap, ate dinner, then went back to bed for a total of 15 hours of sleep. Sunday, after sleeping in, I laid around all day grading and barely working. I'm happy to say all the sleep paid off though! By Sunday night, I felt like a new person. Although I was horribly congested today at school, I made it through Monday with much energy. And that is how you beat a cold without Nyquil/Dayquil- you sleep for over 25 hours!
Tonight we practiced filling the cupcakes for the Gender Reveal Party on Saturday! I am SOOO excited to reveal the gender of Q1-13 to our closest family and friends. My parents and brother are coming in to town, as are Matt's mother and brother. Plus, both of our sisters are Skyping in for it- one from 3 hours behind us, the other from 6 hours ahead.
Q1-13, everyone wants to know if you are a boy or a girl! :)
