17 Weeks

Baby Hudson is 17 weeks old and we had an appointment with the specialist yesterday and it went really well. He was squirming around, yawning and sucking his thumb, so cute! Hudson weighed 7.2 oz which is big for his age because I think at 17 weeks the average weight is 5 oz. They did an anatomy scan and measured all of his parts which was really cool to watch them zoom in on his organs, brain, bones and precious feet. I wish I could have ultra sounds every day! We got to see his pee pee again (Tim saw it for the first time) but they say they don't confirm anything until 20 weeks, but I don't think his pee pee is going anywhere.
People have been asking me if I have any cravings and the truth is no, but I do want to eat whatever I see. For instance, this morning I looked in our fridge to pack my lunch and grab breakfast and I saw the left over sauerkraut I made on Saturday, so for breakfast I had a bowl of sauerkraut. I wasn't craving it, I just saw it, it looked good and I ate it. Because I eat what ever I see I've been having some fun combinations of food like pickles dipped in hummus, or hot sauce on sweet potato's or basically hot sauce on anything imaginable. Eating has been very fun, I really lucked out and haven't been nauseous at all. I feel like I have my energy back and I can work out again, so I've been doing great!
Here are a couple of the latest pictures of Hudson:

I know it's very early, but I swear he has Tim's nose!

  2. Wow, Sara! This is absolutely thrilling! I am praying for you. We have almighty God on our side and He will come through for you! He that spared not his own son, but gave him up for us all, how shall he not, with him also, freely give us ALL THINGS?
    I am going to Israel tonight to see Angel and Nick and their little baby Moira! Angel will be so glad to hear how little Hudson is doing.
