and we are HALF way there...

Today marks 20 weeks for us in the King home. We are really excited! Things are starting to come along. . .

a.) There is no doubt I am pregnant when you see me. I officially have the "baby bump"!
b.) We ordered the baby crib and dresser for our little prince.
c.) I made my first online purchase for baby clothes!
d.) The kicks have proven themselves worthy and I know what they are now. Zach even felt his little boy kick for the first time today!

Here is the weekly babycenter update:

Your baby weighs about 10 1/2 ounces now. He's also around 6 1/2 inches long from head to bottom and about 10 inches from head to heel — the length of a banana. (For the first 20 weeks, when a baby's legs are curled up against his torso and hard to measure, measurements are taken from the top of his head to his bottom — the "crown to rump" measurement. After 20 weeks, he's measured from head to toe.)

He's swallowing more these days, which is good practice for his digestive system. He's also producing meconium, a black, sticky by-product of digestion. This gooey substance will accumulate in his bowels, and you'll see it in his first soiled diaper (some babies pass meconium in the womb or during delivery).
