Gender Revealing Party!!!
Saturday, June 19th we revealed to all our friends and family the gender of the baby! We had about a ton of people in our living room and kitchen nibbling on hamburgers and hotdogs, fruit, chips and salsa, soda, and veggies while waiting on the CUPCAKES!
So the time came to pass them out...
I counted to 3...and everyone bit in!
Except for Will's sister-in-law, who actually had the cupcake...so we made her tear it apart, and this is what she found!
"It's a GIRL!!!"
We also received 723 diapers and 752 wipes!!! (Including a box of the blue jean diapers I blogged about earlier!) We are very excited!
A HUGE Thank You to everyone who came and enjoyed that afternoon with us! We love you guys!

Your baby weighs about 10 1/2 ounces now. He's also around 6 1/2 inches long from head to bottom and about 10 inches from head to heel — the length of a banana. (For the first 20 weeks, when a baby's legs are curled up against his torso and hard to measure, measurements are taken from the top of his head to his bottom — the "crown to rump" measurement. After 20 weeks, he's measured from head to toe.)
He's swallowing more these days, which is good practice for his digestive system. He's also producing meconium, a black, sticky by-product of digestion. This gooey substance will accumulate in his bowels, and you'll see it in his first soiled diaper. (Momma Jones, this one's all yours!)

19 weeks 5 days. 142 days to go!
We are 3 days away from finding out if it's a boy or girl and I am going absolutely crazy! I have been having weird dreams for almost a week now about it! I just know i'm going to go nuts at shops and boutiques! I cannot stand the wait. And I have no clue how i'm going to keep my lips sealed for two whole days until the reveal party?!? I'm going to start making the all-knowing, all-telling, super-secret cupcakes on Thursday or Friday. (Sorry, I get really cheesy when I'm excited!)
I'll move on, now.
I have been feeling the baby move for about a week, now! I think it was last Wednesday that I first recognized it. Sweet Pea's on my left side, still down below my belly button. He/She really enjoys sugar! I just ate a pop-tart and am having fun feeling the party going on inside! I do have to watch how much of that goes on. Sugar is one of my cravings. It's not as common as these cravings though...
French fries with ketchup? OH YEAH. I will make myself sick on V-8 juice. And when we go out to Mexican, forget the meal...just give me the chips and salsa, and nobody gets hurt! As far as food aversions: I'm glad to be eating chicken again. It sure does make life easier!
