22 Weeks!

Well another week has come and gone already.  Time seems to be moving a bit more quickly now even though I'm still only on monthly appointments.  I think it will really start chugging along once the Holidays come around and I start my bi-weekly check ups.  Then busy season at work will start and before you know it..bam the berniers will have a baby!  Still seems kinda out of this world that I have a baby in my belly and that I will have a living breathing child in just a few short months!  I took a picture right around 22 weeks below, definitely rocking a baby bump now.  Had to go out and buy some "dress" clothes for a preggo belly this past weekend as I'm going to Vegas for work in November.

...i really need to start putting on some makeup or something, ha this photo is horrible!!

22 week update - Papaya!
At 11 inches (the length of a spaghetti squash) and almost 1 pound, your baby is starting to look like a miniature newborn. His lips, eyelids, and eyebrows are becoming more distinct, and he's even developing tiny tooth buds beneath his gums. His eyes have formed, but his irises (the colored part of the eye) still lack pigment. If you could see inside your womb, you'd be able to spot the fine hair (lanugo) that covers his body and the deep wrinkles on his skin, which he'll sport until he adds a padding of fat to fill them in. Inside his belly, his pancreas — essential for the production of some important hormones — is developing steadily.
