And Jamie & Johnny Got Married & now...

  • our infant is about 2.91 inches (7.4cm) and weighs around 0.81 ounce (23gm) - This is about the same weight as 4 quarters.
  • If you could peek in again you may spot your baby as he begins to practice inhaling and exhaling movements
  • Eyes and ears continue to move and develop
  • Baby's neck is getting longer, and the chin no longer is resting on his chest
  • Her hands are becoming more functional - Your baby may find it comforting to start playing with her fist.
  • At this point all nourishment is received from the placenta
  • On your next doctor visit you should be able to hear heartbeat with a Doppler by now - (Don't worry though if you can't, the heartbeat can be confirmed through U/S). Your baby's heartbeat is much rapider than your own and may remind you of the race towards birth that he is running!
Oh My God!!! Could I be any more excited. That's not really their little fetus 'Pam' but there might be a real picture on their 'Bun in the Oven' blog tonight thanks to Auntie Heather. So now we're really wishing we'd gotten our other house but if nothing else at family gatherings
we'll keep the Port Augusta Motel in business.
Yup, I'm really happy and this baby will be only 3 hours away!!! Well, that is until they move here and Nana can spoil her rotten!!! Just kidding, I'll spoil all of them rotten!
Hmmm, now we just need to get Uncle Danny & Auntie Jenny here. I'll have to keep working on that. Mind you the jade markets are amazing in Tainan!! Jamie would go crazy!

More Summer Fun


I love this picture of Dan, we headed out on Ceara a few days after the wedding and Chris and Darcee showed up with their SeaDoos. It was so cool seeing Dan and Kyle just step off the swim grid onto them and then roar around the boat. Scott would have loved it!
We couldn't talk Linds into letting Luke go for a ride so Kyle decided just to eat the baby.
We also couldn't talk Jenny into taking one out (me either for that matter) but the boys sure seemed to have fun.

One thing Jenny does like though is cats. Don't you love the way Oz is almost bigger than her?
Jenny, you are so cute!
After Linds, Kyle and Luke left we decided to check out Mt. Washington and take the chair up to the top and walk back down (good thing Dan has a good sense of direction or we'd still be up there). It was great though and a gorgeous day.

Behind them you're looking at Georgia Strait and the Coastal Mountain Range.

And, of course, you have to have a picture of a Whisky Jack if you're going to be up the mountain.

Poor Aunty Pat is still limping. We were so worried about Jenny and she beat us down.

Good times...
