8 weeks ...


Wow, it's flying by.  Our baby is the size of a kidney bean, has webbed fingers and toes, but can't tell yet if it is a boy or girl.  We shall see (don't forget to vote on the left).  We go to the doctor again in two weeks and are looking forward to hearing the heartbeat and seeing the baby for the first time.  Mommy was craving pancakes and eggs this morning, and then once they were all cooked up, she couldn't stomach the thought of even looking at Patrick eating them.  Go figure.  Salami is out of the picture now too.  Daddy is doing a lot more around the house and is voraciously reading the weekly updates about his baby (and other baby-related resources).  

Psalm 28:7
"The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in Him, and I am helped;"
