Week 11
From this week until week 20, the baby will be growing rapidly — increasing in size from about 2 inches to about 8 inches from crown to rump. To accommodate all this growth, the blood vessels in the placenta are increasing in both size and number to provide the baby with more nutrients. At this time the baby is about the size of a large lime.
Facial development continues as the ears move toward their final position on the sides of the head. The baby's head accounts for about half of the body length.

Week 10
By week 10, all of the baby's vital organs have been formed and are starting to work together.
Congenital abnormalities are unlikely to develop after week 10. This also marks the end of the embryonic period — in general, the embryo now has a distinctly human appearance and starting next week the baby will officially be considered a fetus.
HOW AM I?
Much better than previous weeks. I am still tired most all of the time but have not had much sickness at all! I rest when I can, nap when I can, and go when I can. This past week I have been able to eat much more foods than I had been eating. As long as I eat something about every 2 hours, I'm good. My foods of choice this week have been fried bologna sandwiches and chocolate (although not at the same time, ha). We are looking forward to my next check-up which will be next Monday the 9th. Please continue to keep us in your prayers!!!

The Comforts of Home
The house is completely furnished!!! We didn't need a thing but our clothes and some groceries. What a blessing that has been to us!We love this full size refrigerator! It's frost free so no more manual defrosting. Yippeee!!
We have 3 bedrooms and 2 baths, with a BATHTUB!
The two guest rooms have twin beds
And our room has a queen bed. We love it!
The living room
We live in a nice, quiet residential area with very little traffic. It is almost too quiet after living in Guatemala. David joked that the only cars he saw pass yesterday were the garbage truck and the mail man. ha It's very peaceful.
We are also grateful to the Macedonia Call Foundation of Mississippi for providing us with a vehicle to drive while we are home. They take donated vehicles and then let missionaries use them while in the States. It's a great organization, be sure to check out their website. We only pay for insurance and maintenance. Just another thing we consider a blessing!!

Our First Ultrasound & A Little Update

Sick & tired! ha I don't seem to be quite as sick as I was but the fatigue is as strong as ever. I think all the traveling and moving this week has worn me out. I am finally getting a little of my appetite back, but no weird cravings yet. I have not been able to eat much of anything so far. But, I think I have eaten more since returning to the States than I did in the last few weeks combined. I did wake up Tuesday morning wanting a hot dog for breakfast though. That was weird. I sneeze all the time and am constantly blowing my nose. I wouldn't trade it for anything in the world!!!
