Kumquat?

Today marks 10 weeks on our calendar, so we're in double digits on the weeks counter. A small milestone... Yay! 

My handy weekly updater tells me that Baby Ratcliff is now the size of a kumquat. Really? That's the best fruit or vegetable you could come up with? I've never even eaten a kumquat. I guess these are kumquats...


I mean, those look pretty big to me. The other fruit/vegetable ticker says that Baby Ratcliff is the size of a prune. Kids, I know what a prune looks like, and I've eaten them. That makes sense to me. I guess kumquat is more fun to say, though. 

As far as Baby Ratcliff is coming along, I don't feel as terrible as I did. I'm not AS tired or AS grouchy - Derek may disagree. My bloating seems to have disappeared, and one of my coworkers said that will happen before the true belly arrives. I'm just going to enjoy wearing normal clothes for now.

Speaking of which, I ordered some maternity clothes today because Old Navy is having a crazy good sale. Some of that stuff is 9 bucks! I love it! 

I guess if Baby Ratcliff continues on his citrus-y path (next week, he'll be a lime which is very exciting :D), then he'll be popping out before we know it! Then, I can wear those maternity clothes that I saved some mad cash on.
