Elliott:
My oh my you have grown this week! I feel like my belly doubled in size in one week's time. You're now about 6 inches from crown to rump and you weigh about a half a pound, the size of a large mango. Your cartilage is turning to bone now, and I can feel you kick more each day.
We went to see Dr. Chang on Monday. I was afraid to get on the scale after seeing how much my belly grew in one week, but to my surprise I had only gained two pounds since last month's appointment. He listened to your heart beat again. This time your heart rate was 149bpm. I had lots of questions for him, but he was patient and answered every one.
Your Daddy came home from Las Vegas this week. He missed us both very much. He brought me some new PJ's and you some new clothes and bibs.
He also painted your room this weekend. We decided on a light gray. Now that the room is painted and your light fixture is hung, we keep going in and imagining you in there with all your little stuff.
We love you so very much. We talk to you everyday and wonder what you will look like and who you will grow up to be. The next 21 weeks can't go by fast enough!
Keep growing strong,
Momma
