Pregnancy Week 24

This post is a little bit late, but better late than never...

I had another ultrasound last Tuesday and we got to see our sweet baby boy again.  Once again,  he was quite the exhibitionist and pretty stubborn, too.  He was in a comfortable spot and didn't want to move and the woman doing the ultrasound finally got him to move around by poking and prodding him.  After she got all the measurments she needed, she looked around a little bit more and got the funniest shot of him basically mooning us with his legs spread out showing off his boy parts.  She said we have a contrary little son and Brandon and I both at the same time said, "That's your son."  Haha.  The best part about the doctor's appointment was hearing my doctor say everything looked great, Aiden is measuring exactly where he's supposed to be, I'm measuring exactly where I'm supposed to be and I'm "boringly normal."  She also wrote me a prescription for acid reflux and it works like a miracle!  I've been eating pizza and Mexican again.  Yay!

This week Aiden weighs a pound and a half!  He has now reached the point of viability which is an exciting milestone to reach.  He  is almost a foot long, about the length of an ear of corn.  He will be starting to plump up soon and look more like a newborn.  His brain is growing quickly now and his taste buds are continuing to develop. 

This week I was getting together all the stuff we have for Aiden and I quickly realized after seeing it all in one pile, that we have a lot of clothes!  We have found some things on clearance for next winter and some cute little hats that we couldn't resist buying.

We also finished registering for all of our smaller stuff at Target and Wal-Mart.  It makes it even more exciting looking forward to having Aiden when we look at all of the little stuff we would be using for him, like bath toys and cute little socks and tiny little onesies.
