- Baby is 4 1/2 - 4 3/4 inches long. Almost the size of my hand (I measured!)
- Fat tissue begins to form - meat on the bones!
Brent and I had a fun weekend last weekend. We went to the Melbourne Art Fair downtown on Saturday. Lots of good art to see. We didn't buy anything this year, just had fun looking. The weather was great, nice and sunny but not too hot. On Sunday we drove to Orlando the big Babies R Us store. We don't have a good Babies R Us here locally, just a small section in the Toys R Us store. Orlando was the closest, took under an hour to get there. We had so much fun! We are trying to pick out a stoller and car seat. It's so hard! There are so many styles and brands. It's hard to know which one is the best. I was in baby heaven at Babies R Us - I loved it! Then we had lunch at Houlihan's and talked strollers and baby gear - the parents-to-be. :o)
My hips have started to bother me lately, particullarly at night. I am not supposed to sleep on my back, as it puts pressure on veins and blood vessles when lying flat. So, I flip flop all night long from side to side. My left hip hurts so bad - burns and aches. I have to often get up and walk around for a few minutes till it feels better. Then I'll sleep and wake up again an hour or so later with a burning hip again. I have talked to my sister-in-law, Angie, and some of my co-workers and they had the same problem. Oh my, painful hips for the next 5 months!!
I had more lab work this week. I expect to get the results at my next check-up, which will be May 13th. Then the next ultrasound will be May 21st. I can't wait to see the baby on the screen again! The ultrasound tech may be able to tell if it's a boy or girl....but I still think we want to be surprised!
Hope everyone is happy and healthy. I miss all my family and friends!
Love, Laura

Laura,
I am sorry to hear that you are having trouble sleeping at night. Your sleep pattern sounds a lot like mine. The reason for my troubles is different than yours though. I hope you don't get any daytime problems.
I love the belly. I am sure that it looks even bigger on you because you are so petite otherwise.
I am sure you and Brent are excited about his upcoming trip to Detroit area. I know Brent will do very well. All they have to do is look at his website.
Love,
Dad H
Look at that little baby bump!! I'm sure you're the cutest little prego lady ever, just like you're going to be the cutest little mom ever. Now get back up here so we can see the belly grow! :)
