Hallelujah for Maternity Pants!

Wow! Can you believe that our baby is already this developed?! It's crazy to think of all of the changes that have taken place inside my own body in the last 3 1/2 months. Little baby Siemens is about 4 inches long this week, weighing about 2 1/2 ounces, and growing FAST. Some exciting changes with baby that have been taking place is that he or she is developing taste buds, moving all of the limbs and joints, and becoming sensitive to light. The pregnancy journal that I subscribed to even says that if I shine a flashlight directly at my tummy, the baby shies away from the light! I've been going through some exciting changes too. My belly is growing bigger all the time and I went shopping for my first pair of maternity pants yesterday. They feel so wonderful - I'd almost forgotten what it felt like to button up a pair of pants when I wear them!! I also bought a present for the baby that he/she won't be able to use for a while . . . the cutest and softest white snowsuit. Amber and I tried it onto Hailey to get an idea of how big my baby will be next winter and it was so cute on her. It made me so excited to have a little baby of my own to hold and dress.

Well, the maternity pants do look great on you! And the little "bear bundler" or bunting as we used to call them could only be cuter once the little one will be in it!

That was the cuddliest, softest snow suit ever! The ears...oh the ears!!!! Good choice in picking your 1st baby purchase. Remember don't buy toooo much (tho it is so hard not to with so much cute stuff out there!)...the gifts will come flowing in soon enough :)
