The 29th Week!







Happy Thanksgiving! We spent the holiday at my Aunt Sue's house and had a great dinner! Darren and I also got the chance to see Lauren and Joe while they were in town and pregnant Corrie!!!

PRODUCE UPDATE!!!! Owen is now the size of a butternut squash and now weighs about 2 1/2 pounds and is a tad over 15 inches long from head to heel. His muscles and lungs are continuing to mature, and his head is growing bigger to make room for his developing brain.

The 28th Week!


We are now in our third trimester! By this week, Owen weighs approx. two and a quarter pounds (like a Chinese cabbage) and measures 14.8 inches from the top of his head to his heels. He can blink his eyes, which now sport lashes.

I had my 7 month appointment today and got to hear his healthy heartbeat! The doctor said that everything is moving along great!

The 27th Week!


We spent the weekend - cleaning out closets and making room for baby Owen and all of his things...This weeks produce update...Owen weighs almost 2 pounds (like a head of cauliflower) and is about 14.4 inches long with his legs extended. He now sleeps and wakes at regular intervals. And they say I should chalk up any rhythmic movement I may be feeling to a case of baby hiccups, which may be common from now on.

The 26th Week!


6 1/2 months! Boy how time flies. I have been feeling very good and Darren is taking good care of both Owen and me. Our books say that Owen probably weighs about one pound and two thirds and is 14 inches in length. The size of (an English hothouse cucumber), from head to heel. It is pretty funny- they always compare the baby to some type of produce! My friend Corrie - who is also pregnant (due in April) do our weekly produce update with each other. Her baby is now the size of a lemon!!!
