Dear baby,
I am growing more and more excited for your arrival as I begin to get more "confirmation" of you. We got to see you last week (I'm a little behind on posting the pictures but I promise I'll get around to it!) and hear your heart beating (184 bpm). You didn't move in your pictures, but that is ok because I'm sure you will be moving plent more in the days ahead. You will never know the joy we felt in getting to see you, even though you are still quite small!! You are going to be so loved you won't even know what to do with it all - I promise you.
The website says the following about this week in your development: Your baby (now the size of a prune) has small indentations on his legs (soon to be knees and ankles!), and tiny buds of baby teeth are forming under the gums. His stomach and kidneys are kicking into gear, producing digestive juices and urine, and if it's a boy, his testes are making testosterone.
Your dad was particularly excited about the tiny buds of baby teeth forming under the gums - you will soon see how he is crazy about teeth.

We get to hear your heart again in a few short weeks and then see you again in 9 more weeks - by then I'm sure you'll look MUCH differently - and we are excited!! That will also mark the 1/2 way point until you are here!!! You will soon be here!!!
Love you lots,
Mom and Dad
