Feel like blogging about a whole lot more - but not sure how to put it all into words...so this is all I've got for now. "Like" on facebook if you've read this. ;)
Today I am 26 weeks pregnant. 98 days to go or 3
months 7 days until March 25th.
Our little gummy bear is now approximately the size of a eggplant - approximately 14 inches long & weighs about 1 2/3 lbs.
Maternity clothes?
I have 2 pairs of jeans, one nursing bra, & one sleep bra. I can wear
most of my shirts that I normally wear – some are getting shorter and some show
off more of my belly but they still fit. I forgot I actually have 1 maternity
shirt but it's a touch baggy yet.
Food cravings? Nothing sticks out.
Labor signs? Thankfully none.

At long last your little swimmer can see!
For the first time ever, your wee babe's eyelids have finally opened (remember: they were fused shut previously) and they’re probably having their first moments of sight as you read this (or maybe it already happened while you were brushing your teeth or browsing the internet or something).
In addition to taking in their first visual impressions of their comfy amniotic-filled studio, your little human-bean recently acquired the ability to move their head around.
That's right, if your child were clever enough (which they're not - yet), they could engage in that most basic of non-verbal communication - the head shake/nod. Not to mention, gawking!
In further anti-alien developments: your little super star’s head hair is starting to grow in!
Who knows, maybe a cute little cowlick or two is springing into position right now - the first of years of cute-but-stubborn bed-head.
Your wee piggy's toenails have recently grown in and they're still slowly piling up fat beneath their still-loose-n-wrinkly skin.
Most importantly, their brain tissue and neurons are all developing at a rapid pace, increasing their (genius-level?) brain activity, which will continue to function at accelerated levels for the first eight years of childhood!

Oh my word - I have heard so much about Duck Dynasty lately!! What channel is it on? I feel so out of the loop.
I just took some videos of my belly doing the "tidal wave" thing. Yikes! It's actually starting to hurt! So exciting that Josh and the girls have been able to feel movement!
