16 Weeks To Go

What we were doing last July.
This year, it's just too hot to get out.

This week is really important. It's the 24 Week mark. It means that Baby will start gaining about 4 ounces a week for the next four weeks. It means that his/her lungs will be developing at an amazing rate everyday.

There must be a tiny little control panel inside my womb. I'm pretty sure that there is an "Initiate Weird Pregnancy Dream Sequence" button. There is also one of those throttles like they put on lawnmowers with a turtle and a rabbit, and a big red MUST USE BATHROOM button. I must be big because it get's pushed A LOT. I really don't know what color it is. Maybe it flashes.

Milestones

• The baby is about a foot long. That's the same size as my very favorite sandwich from, ahem, a place that makes long sandwiches -- Seafood-and-crab-with-pickles-lettuce-tomato-and-olives. It's also as long as most rulers. But you probably had that figured out. 
• Weird dreams. I mentioned that above. But yeah, seriously crazy stuff. 
• My belly is growing by leaps and bounds. Sometimes literally. I feel them.

Over all it has been a pretty hectic week. One that I am very glad to see finished. 

We had our garage sale on Saturday. It was really nice to see all that stuff leave. Even if most of it left in the back of the truck that T and Mama were taking to the thrift store. I also made this observation: people buy the weirdest stuff at yard sales. The stuff we were sure we would have to haul off were the first things that sold. 

I did not take pictures of our entrepreneurial adventure. It was miserably hot. Nobody wanted their picture taken.

This coming week is going to be pretty special. T took off all week. Tomorrow is our wedding anniversary. I'm working on a really special post so be sure to come back and visit.
