Happy New Year everyone!! I hope you all had a very special holiday and that 2008 is a wonderful year for you and yours!
I'm 6 weeks pregnant today, starting my 7th week! This pictures are the product of the 7th week!
I have been wanting to clear out the "nursery" for months now. It's basically just our junk room and Thomas promised to help clear it out as soon as I was pregnant. And I held him to it! We got home yesterday and we spent the whole afternoon going through boxes, moving and reorganizing everything. I had a gallon of yellow paint from last year when I was going to paint the dinning room
and decided against the color. So I got it in my head that I HAD to paint the room asap lol!
So we painted last night as well. It's definately sunshine yellow, so I'm not too sure if we will keep it that color for a boy, but I love it if we are having a girl, my room was yellow as a little girl!
I heard from my nurse today (she was returning my call from over the holidays) and I'm going in for a blood confirmation test in the morning. I should have the results by the afternoon! So say a little prayer tonight just for safe measure! After the blood test I have to go back to
and the outfit he went home from the hospital in! He was 5 weeks premature so his little outfit was sooo tiny and precious! We really enjoyed her company especially now that we're expecting and she's going to have her first grandbaby!!
That's about all the news for now. I'll do a new belly picture in a few days even though I
don't think there is much of a difference, but we'll see! Here are a few "fun facts" about what is going to happen with the baby's development in this week!!

my Primary Care Provider at the Pope clinic and get a referral to an Obstetrician or Midwife! I'm hoping for a Midwife. So hopefully I will be able to get in for my first prenatal appointment soon:)
Today was my first day back to work in a few weeks and I can honestly say that it is soooo much more enjoyable knowing that I will be taking care of my own baby soon!! Thomas' mom, Michele, came to visit us today! It was the first time she has seen the house and I was happy to be able to show off the newly painted room to someone! She brought Thomas' baby book

*The arms and legs continue to develop - These limbs are stretching out more and more.
*Brain is growing well - Did you know that over the course of the remaining months that your baby's brain will develop over 100 billion neurons? This is just the beginning!
*Lenses of the eyes appear - If you could catch a glimpse inside, you would notice your baby's appearance becoming increasing like a newborn's.
*Nostrils are formed - The position of the nose seems to shift into its proper place as well. Soon, the nerves running from the nose to the brain appear.
*Intestines grow - Initially these are actually located outside the baby's body within the umbilical cord.
*Pancreas - Your baby is now equipped to deal with digestive enzymes and take on processing the insulin and glucagons the body needs to function.

The next few weeks will be pretty busy around here since it's the countdown to Thomas' deployment! But I will be sure to keep you all updated with the doctor's appointments and pictures and fun facts:)
