19 weeks!!! Almost halfway there! YIKES!!! Is it okay to panic now?
Our little guy is about 8 ounces now and somewhere around 6 inches long. His brain is developing sensory areas for smell, taste, hearing, vision, and touch.
We've had a rough few days over here. It started saturday morning when Ayla started vomiting into Jess' hand. We got a bowl eventually. She was one unhappy lass for the morning, but by afternoon she was good to go. "Let's play!" She's a tough one.
Sunday was Jess' turn. The nausea she was feeling all day culminated into violent retching, the likes of which I haven't seen since we lived around the corner from the Silhouette Lounge in Allston (or was that just the smell of the place I'm thinking of?). Anyway, around 9 or so she made her oral offering to the Avon Sewage system. By monday, I was feeling weird bubblies in my belly, which is nothing strange on its own, but these were paired with contractions. At this point Jess is no longer throwing up but her body ached, her head pounded, and eating was not as alluring as it used to be. Luckily, I bypassed the toilet bowl routine (all those years of putting everything and anything down my gullet have paid off) and went straight to the immense, migraine-like headaches. These were unhappy times for us and seemed to last longer than they actually did. Now we are all our usual happy-go-lucky selves.
On a side note...we watched Stranger than Fiction over the weekend and recommend it. A cute movie that doesn't try to be more than it is. So go rent it!
Cheers!
the king

WE WOULD LIKE TO SEE SOME PICTURES OF JESSICA AND HER PROGRESS. WE WHO LIVE FAR AWAY DON'T GET TO SEE HER GROW. JUST A SUGGESTION FROM GRAM AND DUDU BUT A GOOD ONE.
I'm sorry...if I lead you to believe this was a democratic blog. It is, in fact, not. It is a monarchy, but not one of those sissy ones with a parliamentary body...we're talking absolute monarchy here. There's the King (me) and then there's god. With that said, thank you for your suggestion. Please don't bother me with them again.
Oh, and do you really think the Queen will let me take a picture of her???
This is to Dudu and Gram-honestly, he used to be such a well behaved, respectful child-ahh but that was such a looong time ago--still----ya gotta love him (He is the King, afterall!!!)and the father of our amazing little granddaughter :>)
TO ANONYMOUS FROM GRAM AND DUDU,
I KNOW THE KING HAS MANY DUTIES RUNNING HIS KINGDOM BUT YOU THINK HE'D TAKE TIME TO KEEP US INFORMED. RUMOR HAS IT HE HAS AN UPDATED PICTURE OF THE QUEEN BUT HAS NOT YET SHARED IT. I GUESS HE HAS NO TIME FROM HIS DUTIES FOR THE LITTLE PEOPLE. I THINK HE FAILS TO SEE, WHERE HIS KINGDOM WOULD BE WITHOUT YOU AND ME.
