It is still kind of surreal that we are having another baby! We found out a week ago that you would be joining us and mommy has thought about it a lot this week! It makes me so excited!
Baby Changes: This week the baby is the size of a sesame seed! You are growing rapidly! You are made of 3 layers right now that will soon be your organs and tissues. Your neural tube, from which your brain, spinal cord, nerves, and backbone will sprout, is starting to develop in the top layer, called the ectoderm. This layer will also give rise to his skin, hair, nails, mammary and sweat glands, and tooth enamel. Your heart and circulatory system begin to form in the middle layer, or mesoderm.
Your third layer, or endoderm, will house his lungs, intestines, and rudimentary urinary system, as well as his thyroid, liver, and pancreas.

Movement: Obviously nothing yet.
Sleep: I am still sleeping well and sleeping A LOT! I am very tired all the time and don't have a lot of energy. Still so tired!
Symptoms: It has not been too bad this week. I am not feeling great but not feeling awful either! Hopefully it doesn't get worse.
Daddy Update: Daddy is doing well! Busy with youth stuff and helping with Brody and house stuff!
News: We can't wait to tell our family next week about you! This week we have just been excited to ourselves! :)
