14 Weeks Preggers and Viva Las Vegas!

 Baby's now the size of a lemon!Your adorable little fetus is busy with thumb sucking, toe wiggling, (not so cute but equally amazing) making urine, and breathing amniotic fluid as the liver, kidneys, and spleen continue to develop. Lanugo (thin, downy hair) is growing all over her body for warmth.
Your Baby in Week 14 of Pregnancy
Now the size of your clenched fist, your baby is more fluid-like in his movements, so he’s no longer doing the jerk every time he repositions his arms and legs. Other developments this week include a roof of his own (inside his mouth, that is) as well as intestinal activity: His intestines are producing meconium (which is the waste that will make up his first bowel movement after birth). He is also sporting a downy coating of hair (lanugo) that keeps him nice and warm. Not to worry — you won't give birth to a monkey; baby fat will accumulate over the next few months and take over the function of keeping your baby warm and toasty —allowing most of that hair to shed.

I can't believe we're at week 14 already! Time seems to be going too fast! I'm still feeling great...I've been monitoring my glucose daily and have gotten really good numbers. We had a class on Tuesday and she said if in 4 weeks they're still all good then I can cut down to every other day and if they're still good in 8 weeks I would only have to test twice a week. That doesn't sound too bad!


We're celebrating our 2nd Year Anniversary this Monday and we're celebrating it at one of our favorite places----->LAS VEGAS!
It's a much needed mini-vacay...we've just been both so busy with work that it'll be nice to relax. We're hoping to catch a show but we're going for the surprise element and will pick one when we're there. We even joked about renewing our vows at a wedding chapel. We'll see how much time we have on Monday! After Vegas we're going to go to The Reef and have a nice little lunch to celebrate more.
Hopefully Socks has a blast with Siopao...they're usually best friends but she always comes back soooo exhausted! Can't wait to spend this mini-vacay with the hubby and celebrate with Baby Emery...but I can't wait til I get to see the little puppy again...I always have a hard time when we leave her =(

OH! And the best Anniversary Gift we're getting is on Tuesday...we get to see Baby!!! It's been a whole 3 weeks since we've last seen Baby...I can't even imagine how much it's grown...SO EXCITED =D
