18 Weeks!!

Here's my 18 week belly shot!
My very talented photographer seems to have cut off the top of my head! The most important thing is the belly, right? I'll start posting them about every two weeks or so.

I get weekly e-mails from Babycenter that tell me about what is going on with the baby that week and they usually have a food reference for the size of the baby, like one week it was a jumbo shrimp, another week an avocado, etc. Anyway, I always forward them on to Brad and he likes to read them out to his staff (he's so cute and excited :)!). So, last week, it said that the baby was the size of a large onion so one of the girls decided to print out a picture of an onion and wrote Stretch on it and hung it on his whiteboard - this morning, there was a picture of a sweet potato :).

I think I forgot to mention that at my Dr appointment on Monday, they drew blood for the AFP test which is the one that tests for the risk of spina bifida and other neural tube defects. Anyway, I got the results and everything was good! I really wasn't worried about it, but it's always a relief to hear that the results were just fine.
