24 weeks!

Well, my uterus is now the size of a soccer ball and the little baby is over a pound & about a foot long! I can't believe I have a soccer ball inside me (of course, there's a cute little baby inside of that). My baby is now to the viability stage where it could technically survive outside of me. Not with quite a bit of potential complications, so it needs to just stay put, but for a Labor & Delivery nurse that's a fun milestone to hit. I spent the last seven days at the cabin and Corey joined me for the weekend. It was a blast! Quite relaxing to say the least with a little shopping, swimming, fishing, and walking with the neighbor girls. Katie, Casey, ValRae, and Bekki accompanied me walking and I actually kept up pretty well. So far, the baby hasn't slowed me down too much.

I'm still playing volleyball every week with no problems yet. I figure it's good intimidation for the other teams, right? I did order my bridesmaid dress for Jenna's wedding. It's amazing how big you have to get it to fit over an ever-growing belly. I'm going to have to get it taken in quite a bit everywhere else. Oh well, if it looks like I'm wearing a tent, so be it.

Anyhoo, I plan to add some pictures from the cabin when I have time at home to download them. Maybe tomorrow night. 16 weeks until the due date! Wow, this is flying by!
