30 Weeks!

YAY finally 30 weeks!  I'm out of the twenties!! And that means only 8 more weeks until I'll be holding Micah!
So this was me at 13 weeks..
And I was shocked how how much my stomach was out there..
And then at 24 weeks..
And today at 30 weeks!
Most shocking part of this whole thing to me is..I weight right around the same weight today as I did at 13 weeks!
I've felt a lot of changes this week, I don't know if it was a major growth spurt or if he just moved and spread out more in my stomach, but wow I feel him like constantly!  And its quite painful!  He likes to poke body parts out, so I'll get random bumps in my stomach.  I never can really tell what the body parts are, I don't know how people tell the difference between heels, elbows and knees or between the butt and head.  Even though it sometimes takes my breath away when he moves, I still love it!
According to my pregnancy apps, he is now the size of a head of cabbage, weighing in right around 3 pounds and he's about 15.7 inches long.  So I can blame at least 3 pounds of my weight on him now! yes!  His eyesight is developing and will continue to even after he's born.  Hopefully his little eyes develop perfectly and he doesn't have my horrible vision.  This week he'll be busy growing to be 16.25 inches long and 3.3 pounds, about the size of 4 navel oranges.  Week 15 he was the size of one navel orange, so in about 15 weeks, he has gotten 4 times bigger.  He's going to keep gaining that baby fat this week and his skin color is changing from red to pink.  His irises will also start being able to dilate and respond to changes in light.
I have a doctor appointment on Monday, so a new baby picture hopefully!
Only 56 more days!!
Oh and amazingly we still have snow hanging around from earlier this week..
It's more like frozen icy snow..but still I get to keep seeing some white!
