5 Weeks


Today, we're officially 5 weeks pregnant! The picture is of an embryo at 5-6 weeks of development, so this may be what the baby looks like in the next few days. Isn't it cute? It's phenomenally amazing how fast the baby develops at this stage. I mean, mind-bogglingly miraculous.

Still many milestones yet to get to, but this is a great one to celebrate!

I feel great, except for a few tugs, cramps, pulls, and aches of a growing uterus (and, God-willing, growing babies). Slight fatigue has hit - I always feel like I could take a nap. Hopefully, morning sickness will decide not to come visit me at all. For today, this pregnancy couldn't be going better, and we thank the Lord for that!

Surfer and I have decided that if this pregnancy is still going strong and in great shape by August 1, we will take our "Economic Stimulus Check" and go to California for a short vacation at the end of summer! (I hope, I hope!!!)

Finally, I have had the strangest appetite - really wanting only flavorful, spicy foods (thai, indian, chinese, pizza, etc). Then today it hit me - of COURSE I do, this is, after all, Surfer's child! It's ordering 3-stars from the womb!
