8 weeks!

Your baby is now about the size of a kidney bean and is constantly moving. He has distinct, slightly webbed fingers.

I had my follow-up ultrasound this morning, and I heard the heartbeat! It was the neatest experience, and made it very real for me. The heartbeat is doing very well. It's up to 157, which is pretty fast, and I've already had 2 predictions (one of them being my mom!) that it will be a girl!
They took an ultrasound picture for me, too, so now I can show him/her what they looked like at 8 weeks old. :) I'll be needing to start a baby book soon!

You need to take pictures too when the belly starts to grow. Oh, are you excited about maternity clothes. Remember when we went with April to try on clothes? I have a few really cute stores out here! :) Want to come visit?

I am so glad everything is good with the heartbeat. There is a store called Pea in the Pod that has the cutest and trendiest maternity clothes I have ever seen.

I am suprised you don't have a book of lists already together.

That store is having a huge sale right now I just looked up the website.

Thanks, Ang - I will have to look at it online. I guess you just go with your original size, right? (L/XL?)
Sis - I would LOVE to come visit again! You know that! Is my plane ticket free? :)

Nevermind! $80 for a polo shirt; I don't even spend that much now!

If your ticket was free could you take work off?

Yes you usually go with your size but you know how sizes vary. I didn't realize it was that pricey. They have one down from Ashleys work and everything is so cute.

Trisha you should try target here they have really cute clothes so i would think they have the same there.

Yeah, I was going to say, Target and JCPenny's both have maternity sections, which is definately cheaper than Pea In A Pod. You don't want to go too crazy, especially when you really where it only for 5 months. And usually its done by current size, but check at the stores. Sometimes the size is related to your belly size, so an XL is for the later months.
