Seven Weeks.

It seems like I have been pregnant for months and yet I have 33 weeks left to go, but who’s counting?

It’s amazing to read and see all the pictures and information online.

This fact blew my mind…

“You might be surprised to learn that even though the embryo is only about 2 cm long, every major system in the human body is present in its earliest form by the end of week 7 of pregnancy.”

It’s amazing to think that one of these is currently swimming around in my tummy. (This image is at six weeks). At this point, the baby has a working liver, fully formed intestines and appendix, pumping blood, and is the size of a blueberry.

Despite the fact that I can’t get anything done, might bite your head off if you look at me wrong, sleep constantly, actually pray daily to throw up …and will likely continue this path for at least another 5 weeks

I’m in love.

    It’s wonderful isn’t it? I was miserable the first 2 months and but I LOVED it anyways. I still look at my son and think… I made this {with my hubby’s help of course}.

    You described the first trimester so perfectly! Can I bring you dinner or take your kids to a morning out at the park so you can sleep in??? You know I’m up early anyhow :)

    Very nice blog. I am so excited for you. I had three miscarriages before God blessed us with our daughter who is now 21. I found you through Friday Follow. Sorry I am so late. I hope you will follow me back.

    Have a blessed Easter!
