Books!!!

Here is a list of my monthly reading!!!~ Once again fantastic books and I also became a fan of James Patterson!!!!

12 Weeks

Baby is the size of a plum!

The average fetus at 12 weeks is about 2.1 inches long and .49 ounces. Now that babyhas got pretty much all it's parts, it's main job is to keep on growing.

• Most of baby's critical systems are fully formed!
• Baby is about to enter the growth and maturation stage, in which it's organs and tissues will grow and develop rapidly.
• Baby is now developing reflexes -- if you poke it's body, it will likely move.
• Baby is opening and closing it's fingers and curling it's toes, too.
• Baby's brain is developing fast!

Holy bucket's 3 months just flew by!!! At our appointment Matt and I got to hear the baby's heartbeat. 150/ bpm. Matt was amazed! We asked our doctor lots of ?'s or well I did since I need to know about certain foods(myth or fact). She also let us know that she will not induce me, but will not let me go past 42 weeks.. Yeah my body..NOT.lol

10 Weeks

Baby is the size of a prune!

Now, baby is  about 1.2 inches long and weighs about .14 ounces. It's body length will almost double in the next three weeks.

• Baby has working arm joints, and her cartilage and bones are forming.
• Baby's vital organs are fully developed and they're starting to function.
• Baby's fingernails and hair are starting to appear, too.
• Plus, it's swallowing and kicking in there. (Can you believe it?!)

During 10 weeks I was exhausted, I could sleep all the time if I allowed myself to. I literally would get home from work and just lounge.. WOW.. I was not sick thank goodness but this baby is very strange. I'm not starving and I don't really have cravings. To be honest I'm not really hungry at all but I know I have to eat so I just eat a lot of fruit and veggies! 

Baby Stephenson!!!

Well the Cat is out of the bag, Matthew and I are going to have a baby come May 2013!!! We are a mixture of excited, terrified, thrilled, and overwhelmed and we are only 3 months in.. LOL!!

I HEART Emily Giffin!!!!

If you are looking for a book to read, anything by Emily Giffin is the right choice!!! Here new book Where we Belong just came out and it was amazing and for me kinda of hit home. I'm not adopted but I have never met my father so I understood how the main character Kirby felt when she wanted to find here biological parents. I'd tell you more but I don't want to ruin it for you. So go pick up Emily's book and let me know what you think!!!




Here are a few more that I have read so far. All excellent books and one is a short story that you can get on your kindle or nook!!! Keep on READING!!!

First Comes Love then Comes Marriage then........

Well if anyone knows my husband they know he can be quite whats the word I'm looking for aw STUBBORN!!! It took him 4 1/2 years before he proposed to me and I told him I will not wait that long to start trying to have a baby.. Doesn't he understand the meaning of biological clock is ticking.. 30 will be here before we know it I mean its like lurking just around the corner.. Well he is finally on board and now it's just the waiting game to see when it will happen. So cross those fingers!! Because this girl is ready to be a MOM!!!

June, is it really June..where have I been... I need a timer telling me it's time to blog again. I suppose when we have kids I will find myself doing this much more.. So lets see what the Stephenson's have been upto..
Well the house progress is still nothing not a word, a peep, nothing its a little depressing but hopefully if you cross your fingers and leave them that way for a while it will sell.. I hope your doing that as you read... I mean it don't make me come over there and show you how it's done. LOL We also have enjoyed going back to my hometown and watching my best friend and guys friends play in an Alumni football game. they were all sore but nobody broke anything which is a miracle as we are getting old..
The oldest guy on the field I believe was in his 50's and the youngest 19 so you can imagine. Here is a couple pictures from the game!
