20 Weeks- Halfway there!!

Your baby weighs about 10 1/2 ounces now. He's also around 6 1/2 inches long from head to bottom and about 10 inches from head to heel — the size of a cantaloupe. (For the first 20 weeks, when a baby's legs are curled up against his torso and hard to measure, measurements are taken from the top of his head to his bottom — the "crown to rump" measurement. After 20 weeks, he's measured from head to toe.)He's swallowing more these days, which is good practice for his digestive system. He's also producing meconium, a black, sticky by-product of digestion. This gooey substance will accumulate in his bowels, and you'll see it in his first soiled diaper (some babies pass meconium in the womb or during delivery).(Babycenter.com)

I can't believe I'm halfway through my pregnancy!!! Boy has time flown! Since Randy and I have taken over the young adults class in our church I have been very very busy so besides that nothing much has been going on. Jay has been quiet lately but he reminds me he's here by kicking me occasionally. I love those little kicks, it's the coolest thing in the world to feel your baby inside of you! I have two more weeks until my vacation to California and I cannot wait!!!!!

We can't wait either! Do you have any new pictures to post? I agree with you - the kicks are the coolest part of being pregnant (except maybe for all the wonderful attention and pampering you get). Glad to hear things are so wonderful!
