understanding

yesterday when checking my email, this was in my inbox: "your pregnancy: 16 weeks". i get an update each week on sessie from baby center. each week, i tell michael about the developments going on with our baby. he always excitedly says, "yea, baby!" while never taking his eyes from the golf channel.

this morning while sitting upstairs, watching the golf channel i pull open the email and tell michael that sessie is now the size of an avocado. he turns to me and says, "like...a haas avocado?!" well, that i don't know but from crown to rump...he/she is 4.5 inches long. i explain that and he responds, "oh! sessie can no longer fit in a golf hole. the cup is only 4 1/4 inches!"

he's getting it. in his own, completely michael way, he is understanding a little more about his baby. :)

and, just so you know, last week we had another appt. baby's heartbeat is loud and clear and strong. we can find out what color to paint the nursery on march 26th!

From here on out it might be best to equate baby size in cc's. Like our baby is 300cc (size of 3wood) or our baby is 460cc (size of driver). After that perhaps baby is length of standard grip and then different lengths of footjoys. While we men don't always understand girl talk, we always understand sports :)
