little bitty girl

This is our baby, whom we call BiB (Baby in Belly). ... Here is his/her's latest ultrasound. (I think he/she looks like me!) We can never seem to get a clear one because BiB is always too active. The technician, a rather stern brusque woman, quite hates us as 20 minute ultrasounds always become 45 minutes to 1 hour ones. I don't blame her, sometimes I get a little embarrassed that he/she can never just settle down for the woman to do her job.

The last time Stefan was at the ultrasound with me, BiB took a huge yawn and then started krumping. For those of you who don't know what that is, you can watch a video of what it is here. And the woman just said, "See? That is what he/she does every single time, the ENTIRE time!!" I just have to laugh and hope BiB got my mad dancing skills.

Well, Stefan is NOT pregnant, but I definitely am. This is me in my 22nd week. Yes, we're up to our usual tricks of keeping things quiet to ourselves. I think if we could have gone through the whole 9 months without saying a word, we really would have. This has been a really special time for Stefan and I.

So far, I have been extremely lucky. Other than a mini scare in the beginning, I have had none of the usual symptoms. Other than growing larger in the belly and chest area and getting the pregnancy tiredness, I feel almost exactly the same. I was really hoping for weird pregnancy cravings but so far, all I have wanted has been fruit, vegetables and yogurt. BORING...

Actually, I lied.

I seemed to have developed teenage acne, something I never had even as a teenager. Mama Kang thinks it could be a girl as I "sucked the beauty" out of her too.

All in all, it feels like a crazy science experiment... one that doesn't quite yet seem real.

I got some very sad news tonight. Marie's beloved Monkey was put to rest today after four years of suffering Lymphoma. I am glad I got to spend some time with her this past Thanksgiving where she was still her happy self. We were all very lucky to have had her in our lives for as long as we did.

Three weeks ago, my brother Kelvin and sister in law, Irene welcomed our latest addition, David. He is the first grandbaby in our side of our family. To say that all us are overjoyed would be an understatement. He is absolutely scrumptious and we are so excited to watch him grow up!
