Development This Week: I'm gaining about a pound a week and roughly half of that goes right to my baby. In fact, he'll gain a third to half of his birth weight during the next 7 weeks as he fattens up for survival outside the womb. He now has toenails, fingernails, and real hair (or at least respectable peach fuzz). Her skin is becoming soft and smooth as she plumps up in preparation for birth.
Maternity Clothes: I wear maternity jeans, pants and some tops. I LOVE anything stretchy or drawstring at this point along with stretchy dresses and leggings!
Gender: We are having a precious baby boy!!! Robert William Christensen
Movement: Whew!!!! I have a very active little boy!!! He moves mostly in the evenings and just before bed!!!

Cravings: Mike's Jersey Subs Provolone, veggie sub. Oh my goodness!!! I could eat these everyday of the week!!! :) This week

This is the sweetest post ever!! I just found your blog today and have loved reading it :) Congrats on the precious little one inside you!! I love babies!! Maybe because I am the 2nd oldest of six kids, or maybe because this is just the way the Lord wired me :P
I love reading your sweet posts and love your enthusiasm for your new precious baby. However, as I tell a sweet new momma at my church ... do not count each four weeks as a month of pregnancy unless you are prepared to count it as being pregnant 10 MONTHS (since pregnancy is about 40 weeks)!!!!
MY GRANDCHILD is NOT a Jicama, melon, an orange or any other flora/fauna.
I don't like the comparisons.
SO THERE! My darling squash-girl!
Regards to my onion son in-law.
Love,
Your Rhubarb Mamma :)
You are so cute pregnant! I just love your little belly!! It wont be long now!! Enjoy! Hugs
