For a baby, it's time to trade in the old crown-to-rump measurement for a new head-to-toe standard. So what are your baby’s stats this week (which, coincidentally, is the end of the second trimester)? Fifteen inches — more than a foot long — and triple (or even quadruple) what it was in week 12. His weight is creeping up the charts as well, coming in at just over two pounds. More big news: Your baby may recognize your voice by now, so feel free to serenade your belly (start learning those lullabies!).
Today Gary & Nancy painted Lucas's bedroom.. It started out a dingy yellow color and is now a very pretty light cream. It is a little lighter on the wall than I expected but I like it, it's very bright and cheerful. :)

In other news, blood pressure is still remaining stable so I am having high hopes the trip will go as planned! :) Ankles and feet are still swollen by the end of the day but they go down overnight so not too worried about it.. They ARE quite un-attractive though. LOL
I have noticed they swell less on the weekend, so I suspect the swelling has something to do with my sitting in my chair at work for too long of stretches of time. I try to put them up under my desk but it doesn't seem to work very well. LOL Oh well, December is only another 3 months away right!?
Okay last but not least, here is my 26 week belly picture. Awww.. :)
