365 Challenge #281

19 weeks! Yes! I'm almost halfway done! Baby K is about 10 inches long and weighs over half a pound (a little bigger than a bell pepper)! His/her arms and legs are properly proportioned, he/she can probably hear us now, and he/she can swallow amniotic fluid!

(Nate took the picture, but I'm including it in the 365 challenge anyway, since for me, the challenge is more about saving memories every day than about me taking pictures. I'll be at the North American Midwifery conference in Canada this week, so I'll be taking a little break and will hopefully be back next week!)

We spent most of Saturday cleaning the backyard. I love our two big trees.....until they lose their leaves. Grrrr...it takes forever to clean!!

Nervous smile. "I'm drowning in leaves mom!!"

Joel and Uncle Will hanging out on "sucky thumb pillow"

Joel: "Try my apple Uncle Will"

"It's reeeeally good. See?"

"Just try it!"

"Fine. I'll eat it all myself!"

Sucky Thumb Pillow is the best place to hang out!

We visited Joel's aunts and uncles for the afternoon at a cabin a couple hours away where they were staying for the weekend.

"Hot, hot, hot, hot...."

"Are you still taking pics of me mom??"

This must be about what we look like from Joel's perspective.
