Little Mo update

Here is an update on our baby this week. I am 19 weeks, so I am almost 1/2 way!!! Yeah. I can feel the baby move more and more each day. Which is such a relief now. I have started to let myself get excited and have actually purchased a few items(!!) Go Me! I have also made a short list of needs/wants/borrow from others list. I even have diapers. They had a pack this month and last month at the food line! Pampers too:)

Our baby weighs about 8 1/2 ounces, and he measures 6 inches, head to bottom — about the size of a large heirloom tomato. His arms and legs are in the right proportions to each other and the rest of his body now. His kidneys continue to make urine, and the hair on his scalp is sprouting. This is a crucial time for sensory development: Your baby's brain is designating specialized areas for smell, taste, hearing, vision, and touch.

And for those of you who don't know what an heirloom tomato is...Here is what Wikipedia says it is:
An heirloom tomato is an open-pollinated (non-hybrid) cultivar of tomato. Heirloom tomatoes have become increasingly popular and more readily available in recent years

Enjoy!
