11 weeks

No scurvy for our baby! Baby G is now the size of a lime!Your baby, just over 1 1/2 inches long and is now almost fully formed. Her hands will soon open and close into fists, tiny tooth buds are beginning to appear under her gums, and some of her bones are beginning to harden.

She's already busy kicking and stretching, and her tiny movements are so effortless they look like water ballet. These movements will become more frequent as her body grows and becomes more developed and functional. You won't feel your baby's acrobatics for another month or two — nor will you notice the hiccupping that may be happening now that her diaphragm is forming.

Check out this 3-D ultrasound image of what baby looks like during this week!

What's been happening this week? I've started feeling a bit better, but still ridiculously tired. Now that we can hear the heartbeat on the outside with the doppler I'm really breathing a sigh of relief, no more need to subject baby to ultrasounds to curb momma's worries, a quick check with the doppler will do just fine. We got some more presents this week, the first from Grandma and Grandpa (that's the Jensens) was more BumGenius!!!! Now we're 2/3 of the way to all the diapers we should need until 35 pounds.

Plus, we got our first gift from a patient! This little lovey is just adorable and oh so soft.

I've also been updating the registry with more must haves. I find it's much easier to research one topic a week and then add those products. That way I'm sure that we're picking the best rated most useful things out there. I started at Babies R Us and then added Target because there were several things that weren't available at BRU. Now, I'm considering just doing one big registry at Amazon.com because you can add items from multiple online sources, things like BumGenius diapers and etsy products! Speaking of etsy, I found a brilliant little store that sells stick-on month labels for onsies. here's the link to the store: http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=6653837 and here's the labels I've been eyeing http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=29812689. It will allow us to easily track baby's pictures, plus I've got some fun present ideas up my sleeve with similar stickers.

Can't forget the belly shots:
