I was 19 weeks last Friday....and just getting around the posting the update. On Saturday I went back up to College Station with Mom & Dad to watch the Texas A&M vs. Oklahoma game on Saturday. My poor Aggies.....its just not our year! Then after the game I went straight to Buffalo Wild Wings and met John to watch the Texas Tech vs. Oklahoma State game. Not quite the exciting game we were anticipating, but still, its another W in the win column! My family will be torn a bit on the 22nd when Tech plays OU. My brother, his wife, and John all attended Texas Tech. My mom and grandma are HUGE OU fans. I've got my fingers crossed Tech wins so they can be the Big 12 South champs instead of you know who......
So here's the 19 week update. This Friday marks the halfway there mark!
Your baby's sensory development is exploding! Her brain is designating specialized areas for smell, taste, hearing, vision, and touch. Some research suggests that she may be able to hear your voice now, so don't be shy about reading aloud, talking to her, or singing a happy tune if the mood strikes you.Your baby weighs about 8 1/2 ounces and measures 6 inches, head to bottom — about the size of a large heirloom tomato. Her arms and legs are in the right proportions to each other and the rest of her body now. Her kidneys continue to make urine and the hair on her scalp is sprouting. A waxy protective coating called the vernix caseosa is forming on her skin to prevent it from pickling in the amniotic fluid.

I'm so excited about next week. I know you are to. Your Halloween deco was awesome. Peyton and I talked about it today, we want to drive out in June for a visit. He has vacation he can take and I know the kids will want to see the baby. I'm hoping Mom will fly out with me in April so we can see the newest member of our family!! Think about June and if that works for you guys. We can't wait to see you over the holidays. Love and miss you!
