Baby #2 Update: Apple!

Hola from the Mckeown's!

So baby #2 has officially reached the size of an apple. We are starting the 15th week! Here is a link I get that shows me what it looks like (more or less) here.


Since we found out in April that Baby #2 is joining the family at the 4th week (04/16/2014), it has grown in size and length in this fashion:

poppy seed, sesame seed, lentil, blueberry, kidney bean,
grape, kumquat, fig, lime, pea pod, lemon and now an apple!

Which is your fav veggie/fruit equivalent? Mine so far is the kumquat.

Few facts of Baby #2 as an apple:
1.It's 4 inches long.
2. It's legs are growing longer than her arms now, and she can move all of her joints and limbs. 
3. It can sense light.

We just got back from the Ocean City NJ shore, and pics to come. Jocelyn was the happiest girl on the planet at the beach. She officially wants to be a mermaid, and insists that the baby is a girl is should be named Ariel. Ha! We tasted all the different types of ice cream on the shore (which for my West Coast friends/family, there are a lot of types of ice cream and icy treats out here, but regular ole creamy ice cream like the Amish make is still my fav), ate huge pieces of pizza, got attacked by seagulls while eating fries and had the most incredible donuts. Thanks Col, Molly, Gramps, Grams, and Alex for making the wild trek for those.

More photos to come soon! Here is the better ultrasound picture from the 12th week, a.k.a the lime, appointment. The first is a great shot of its profile and the second you can see it's hand!!! It's like it's waving :) hi hi!
