20 Weeks = HALF WAY POINT!!!

I cannot believe that I have made it to the half-way point already!  Crazy!

Apparently, my uterus has reached my belly button and will only get bigger from here.  :)

The Mini-Miller has reached approximately 6 1/2 inches from head to rump (about the size of a banana!), and weighs in at an impressive 10 1/2 ounces!  From this point on, the updated lengths will be from head to toe!  So exciting!  I can't wait to find out about how long he/she is!  The M-M is also practicing swallowing.

And, since I updated you last week without a picture, here is the prized picture.



And I even smiled this time...  :)  Just like I promised.  I like to keep my promises.

In one week and two days we will find out if the M-M is a boy or girl...I am getting SO excited!  I am still not sleeping well, but I am expecting a special pillow in the mail tomorrow and I hope that will help.  I will let you know.


My visit with my grandma was a little stressful, she is doing ok right now but I am really not sure how much longer she has...which is very sad for my family.  I have come to admire her tenacity and fighting spirit more through observing from the fringes of this cancer-journey.  I give her so much credit for hanging in there and expressing excitement over meeting her "new great-grandchild" in January-ish; especially when things look bleak.

I got to hear a cute story of how my aunt Cheryl got her name and why my grandma has always pronounced it "chair-ill" instead of the traditional "Share-ill."  Such a cute story and great memory for me.  I now see where I get some of my desire for uniqueness from.  :)

Anyway, that's all I have for now, since I just did a more in-depth update a few days ago.  I will update again soon, especially if I find that I'm doing more amusing things...which I probably will.

Cheers!
