Week 9

Baby Thorne:
Today marks the beginning of Week 9. Baby Thorne now has all of his/her fingers and toes and still connected with webbing! It's only around 1 inch long but is already moving. I've been calling it my little pumpkin because it's about the size of a pumpkin seed. The main construction of the heart is complete and has been beating for a couple weeks.

Me:
I'm really tired today even though I went to bed at 8:45 last night. When I get sleepy, that's it. No matter how hard I try to stay up, it doesn't happen and I'm down for the count. I haven't had any major cravings. During the first few weeks, peanut butter and jelly sandwhiches were really tasty. Now, the smell of peanut butter makes me gag. Bad news for Huntley because he's used to getting peanut butter stuffed into his Kong toy, which then permeates the house. I just go to another room for awhile. Last night I was looking for dinner ideas and nothing we had sounded very good. Garrett was still at work so I called him up. I asked him if there was a Papa Johns on his way home. He said he'd look and call back. He called back, said there was, that he'd called in an order and would be on his way shortly. What a sweetie. That made my night.
