From Lemons to Lemonade

Every Friday I receive an update from thebump.com letting me know what fruit Chicken Fry (or at least the average chicken) most closely resembles. This past Friday we officially entered month four - three down, six to go - and our little guy is supposedly one approximately 3.4 inch lemon. That's a long way from the tiny poppyseed we had on our hands back in week 4.

At 14 weeks, here's what Chicken can supposedly do (not to brag or anything):

• He's probably sucking his thumb and wiggling his toes in there!
• His kidneys are making urine, and his liver and spleen are doing their jobs, too.
• And he's growing lanugo, a thin, peach-fuzz-like hair, all over his body -- it will help him keep warm!

I had been really REALLY exhausted during the first three months, but now I'm happy to report that I'm seriously starting to feel a little more with-it, just in time for finals. I don't know if it's the excitement of the holidays, or if I'm finally learning to turn lemons into lemonade, but I'm definitely ready to get off the couch and attack the mall like it's my job ;)
