What comes next?
Since I found out I am pregnant, I have been checking out the babycenter site to get an update on the development of our baby. You would think that by baby #5 I would have this all memorized by now, but I don't. I don't remember my babies in the past being compared to food so much, but our baby has grown from the size of a sesame seed, to a lentil bean, to a raspberry, to a kidney bean, to a grape, to a kumquat, to a fig, to a lime, to a jumbo shrimp, to a lemon, and now is the size of an avocado...at least for a couple more days. I must admit that I've become addicted to the knowledge of what food our baby will be compared to. Although I've delivered 4 babies, I'm a little nervous to find out what size food our baby will be compared to at 40 weeks. Getting a picture in my head of delivering a watermelon might put me over the edge and force me to opt for a c-section.

LOL!! That's great. So, your baby is an avocado right now, huh? It's fun to picture in our minds what size they are. It makes it feel more real. :-)
rofl!! Dh and I totally thought that was so helarious both times I was pg. In fact, K was nicknamed Raspbaby in utero because of once comparison. too funny.
