bouncing baby boy

Feeling: thrilled that we're having a boy! I always wanted a big brother, and I'll get to take him to hockey practice when he gets bigger.
Movement?: LOTS of movement from our little athlete. Anytime I sit down to relax, or early in the morning he's doing barrel rolls. During the ultrasound we could see him rolling around, kicking his legs, and punching with his arms - but I didn't feel anything. I can't imagine what he's doing in there when I can feel it!
Cravings: sugar - I ate a lot of gummy bears this week :-o
Wishing for: another vacation... i'm busy at work
Reading: catching up on my magazines, reading back issues of Real Simple.
Current Project: brainstorming ideas for the nursery
Weight: still only up 6 pounds. baby boy weighs 12oz!!!

From What to Expect: Six inches long this week and about eight ounces in weight, your baby is the size of a large mango. Arms and legs are finally in proportion, neurons are now connected between the brain and muscles, and cartilage throughout the body is turning to bone. All these upgrades combine to give your baby more control over limb movements. Which explains all that kicking, stretching, and bodysurfing (or rather bellysurfing) you've possibly started feeling by now.
