Wee Pea.

Meet the newest addition to our family: Wee Pea. He or she is 9 weeks strong, and amazingly, Mommy swears she's already felt him/her move about. (That or there is something very wrong with Mommy's digestive system. Which could happen.) We heard the heartbeat on Monday afternoon, which was a tremendous thrill. No matter how many times we've heard it before, each time that little 'powh-powh' sound comes through the doppler, our guts somersault.

Wee Pea is about the size of a grape. He/she has grown elbows, and his/her intestines are moving from the umbilical cord to the belly this week. The spine continues to straighten. Wee Pea is busy!
