1/3 down, 2/3 more to go!

We officially hit 3 months today! 1/3 of the pregnancy done. Man time is flying by for us. Baby Rivera is now the size of a lime. Reflexes are a huge development this week. Fingers and hands will start to open and close, toes will start to curl, eye muscles will flicker, and the mouth with start to make sucking movements. The baby is making huge growth strides, just in the past 3 weeks he/she has already more than doubled in size. Gabrielle's clothes are definitely starting to get tight, and there is definitely a baby bump growing. We will try and take pictures this weekend!

Our next Dr's appointment is next Wednesday (day before we turn 13 weeks). We should be able to hear the heartbeat, so we are looking forward to that.

Ben is planning on working on the nursery some more the next couple of weekends. Gabrielle's parents bought us our crib and mattress and those items came in today. We are very excited (thanks so much!!!), it is all starting to seem even more real. Here is a picture of the beautiful crib (that isn't the bedding we are looking at but the crib and its color).


That is about all to report here.

Hope everyone is doing well.

We love and miss you all.

Love always,
Ben and Gabrielle
