This week the baby is about the size of a prune, nearly 1 1/2 inches long. Small indentions in the legs are working to form knees and ankles. The elbows are already working, and tiny buds of baby teeth are forming under the gums. The stomach is producing digestive juices and the kidneys are producing urine- hard to believe all of that is going on in something the size of a prune!!
Thankfully I still have not experienced any sickness- although I have come close a few times at the smell of a few puppy "accidents" which has never bothered me to that extent before! I've noticed a change in the way some foods taste.....mushrooms, which I have always loved, have a very dirty taste now...where as any kind of fruit tastes ten times better than they ever have before! I will get Jason to start taking pictures of my belly next week....hopefully by then I will be past the "beer belly" appearance as I like to call it. If anyone has any good clothes places they could recommend please let me know! I'm having a hard time finding places that have good selection at decent prices.
We had a bit of dog drama this week- poor Coach (our newest puppy) has had some trouble getting sick to his stomach at all hours of the night. The vet thought he might have something stuck in his tummy that wouldn't pass. Turns out the lining of his stomach is really inflammed and his is borderline diabetic! Isn't that sad? He got some more medicine and they gave him some prescription dog food to eat until things calm down. Poor little guy- he and Layla have really been enjoying playing with each other. This is a picture of them in their sweaters earlier in the week when it got really cold. I thought it was a cute one :)

I was so excited to see that you updated your blog! I'm glad that you haven't really been sick...what a blessing! Tell Jason Hi for me. I can't wait for the belly pics!!!
You are so lucky you are not sick. Fruit was one of my favs too. I really liked watermelon. You might try Motherhood for clothes. They are not too bad in price. Some Old Navy stores have maternity but not all of them. Sorry your new little puppy is sick. They are cute!
ross, old navy and gap (has good sales) on maternity clothes and for something special like a shower outfit go to pickles and ice cream. so excied for ya'll and it is lots of fun when they get here!!
