I am so excited to finally be showing! It just reassures me everyday that this little bun is healthy and growing strong for their Mommy & Daddy! I just feel so overwhelmed with gratitude towards family, friends, neighbors and even strangers! Now that I'm sporting this cute little bump, I have people ask me how far I am and the best one yet... "Is this your first?" Wow, absolutely love that comment!! :) And then when I say "No, this is my 7th pregnancy!" The disbelief on their face! I then feel so blessed to then share this beautiful blessing! And to see how each and every person is so intrigued and interested overwhelms me! :)
In my heart I know what I am doing (to some people) is selfless, but honestly I believe in my heart that I am the lucky one. I believe that this journey that I am going through is going to make me a better person with a bigger heart! :) Thank you B & C for giving me the opportunity to receive this incredible blessing in my life!

13 Week Baby Bump! |
Their baby's the size of a peach!
He's/She's about 2.9 inches long and weighs about .81 ounces, and -- proportion-wise -- his/her head's now about 1/3 the size of his/her body (remember? It used to be bigger!).
Their baby at 13 weeks
- Can you believe he's/she's forming vocal cords and teeth?!
- And even though he's/she's still teeny, he/she already has fingerprints.
- His/Her intestines are moving from the umbilical cord to their more permanent place, in his/her tummy.
This fills my heart with happiness and tears of joy!
