18 weeks

How far along: 18 weeks 

Baby's size: 8 inches long and just over 5 ounces (about the size of a bell pepper).

What Munchkin is up to (according to Babycenter.com):
He's busy flexing his arms and legs — movements that you'll start noticing more and more in the weeks ahead. His blood vessels are visible through his thin skin, and his ears are now in their final position, although they're still standing out from his head a bit. A protective covering of myelin is beginning to form around his nerves, a process that will continue for a year after he's born. If you're having a girl, her uterus and fallopian tubes are formed and in place. If you're having a boy, his genitals are noticeable now, but he may hide them from you during an ultrasound.

Symptoms: migraines, tired! 

Total Weight Gain: 8 pounds

Best moment since last update: Daddy got a buck!  Joel loved getting pictures with Daddy and the deer.

Movement:  Yes!

Food cravings: Vanilla Frosty from Wendy’s J

What I miss: feeling rested when i wake up

What I'm looking forward to: our 2nd trimester ultrasound
