31 weeks!!!!

Holy Moly!  31 weeks today!  That means 9 weeks or less 'til we meet this not-so-little bugger! :-)  63 days....  eek!

Here's what Babycenter has to say about Colby (though after my post about his growth ultrasound, it seems silly to report this 'cause he's not as small as they're describing!) :-)

This week, your baby measures over 16 inches long. He weighs about 3.3 pounds (try carrying four navel oranges) and is heading into a growth spurt. He can turn his head from side to side, and his arms, legs, and body are beginning to plump out as needed fat accumulates underneath his skin. He's probably moving a lot, too, so you may have trouble sleeping because your baby's kicks and somersaults keep you up. Take comfort: All this moving is a sign that your baby is active and healthy.


I actually saw him turn his head from side to side during the ultrasound!  It was crazy!  Just another reminder there's a real person in there!  It was like he was giving us a profile shot, and then would look directly at us (at the ultrasound probe), then back to profile!!!!!
