25 Weeks

• Twenty five weeks pregnant, with 15 weeks to go! Generally speaking, our baby's head to heels measurement is 13 1/2 inches. Her weight — a pound and a half — isn't much more than an average rutabaga!

• Organizational instincts are in full swing, I've an overwhelming need to scrapbook, clean the garage and eradicate junk from the house.

• "Medium" maternity clothes are on their way out the door. Welcome size "large"...

• Kicks, pokes and baby rollovers are a continual feeling all day (Mark and Ruth have both felt the baby), it's a special reminder of things to come.

• Our eyes are peeled for diaper sales, beginning to stock pile! :)

• It's going to be a long hot summer, good thing we're ordering a bedroom air conditioner!

• We have five nieces and one nephew on the way this summer. Life is one crazy beautiful carnival ride... Our baby will be so blessed in the cousins category!
