I'm 19 weeks and 2 days today!!! Just 5 more days and I will be half way done! Yes, you read that right....HALF WAY DONE ALREADY!!! Not much to report other than I'm LOVING being pregnant and loving my life!!! I have a GREAT family, AMAZING friends, a FUN job, one HECK of a husband and a NEMO on the way!!! :-) We definitely serve an AWESOME GOD!

Here's what's going on this week!
Your baby's sensory development is exploding! HIS brain is designating specialized areas for smell, taste, hearing, vision, and touch. Some research suggests that she may be able to hear your voice now, so don't be shy about reading aloud, talking to her, or singing a happy tune if the mood strikes you.Your baby weighs about 8 1/2 ounces and measures 6 inches, head to bottom. HIS arms and legs are in the right proportions to each other and the rest of her body now. HIS kidneys continue to make urine and the hair on his scalp is sprouting. A waxy protective coating called the vernix caseosa is forming on her skin to prevent it from pickling in the amniotic fluid.

Here's how big he is this week!
