my baby...has...a tail...

yep. you read that right. a tail. i know its not uncommon but right now it looks like i am going to give birth to a tiny, miniature-sized walrus. :) i know he/she is still developing and all, but accoring to babycenter.com, clumpy looks kind of, well, weird.


"If you could see inside your womb, you'd spot eyelid folds partially covering her peepers, which already have some color, as well as the tip of her nose and tiny veins beneath parchment-thin skin. Both hemispheres of your baby's brain are growing, and her liver is churning out red blood cells until her bone marrow forms and takes over this role. She also has an appendix and a pancreas, which will eventually produce the hormone insulin to aid in digestion. A loop in your baby's growing intestines is bulging into her umbilical cord, which now has distinct blood vessels to carry oxygen and nutrients to and from her tiny body." (babycenter.com)


they also say, that little clumpy is now the size of a blueberry, and since we are almost into the eighth week, he will soon be a raspberry! yeah...we are moving through the fruits pretty quick. look how fast my baby is growing! awww...
so guess what? Christmas is only EIGHT days away!!!! woohoo!!! (or zonino!!! for those who know me really well :)) we have this running joke in our family, that Christmas Karly comes out, normally about the beginning of December. well, she came out a little early this year and has been going strong since the middle of November. however, i passed a milestone this morning that i pass every year, i invented a new word. i do this every year as well. some of the weirdest things come out of my mouth this time of year. so anyways, this morning, i was driving to work and almost dropped my coffee in the floorboard when i had to stop really quick. the first thing that came out of my mouth was...."crapezoidal tendencies!"...yes, you read that right as well. where in the world did that come from? i mean really? its just wrong. wrong. wrong. wrong. so Christmas Karly is officially here.
Kyle and i have done almost all of our Christmas shopping. i am SO ready to see the girl's reactions to their presents. it's going to be great! we still have a few little things to get and hopefully we can do that today or tomorrow before the weather gets bad again. well...i suppose that's pretty much it for me. hope everyone has a wonderful day!
love you all!

Karly that's awesome and I'm gonna say that's the wierdest phrase yet. You come up with stuff almost as strange as the words we have to type in to verify that we are not computer viruses :). Cryterpi!
