Week 18

Well here we are at week 18, 2 more weeks and we'll be half way done. I can't believe how fast time is flying. In case you haven't heard we are having a girl, Grace Victoria!

What's happening with Gracie this week:
"Your child is nearly half a foot long and nearing a half pound. Their skin is now covered in a waxy substance known as vernix and their external genitals are now developed enough to be seen from an ultrasound."
What's happening with me this week:
Yup, still getting sick, in fact between 6am and9am I got sick 6 times, it was not a good morning. Other than the throwing up, I'm feeling pretty good and I'm loving being pregnant.

Our doctor's appointment went well last week, we heard Gracie's heartbeat for the first time, and boy was it fast! My uterus is right at my belly button and I'm still down as far as weight goes. My doctor isn't concerned, so neither am I. I'm just hoping I won't suddenly gain 10 pounds over night.

Well, we started on the nursery this weekend. Here are a few pictures of our progress.
