It is hard to believe that we are halfway through this adventure. As expected, Baby Amato and I are growing each day. I'm not sure I am feeling any movement yet but I may be confusing it with gas. Here's what our weekly baby informer had to say today:
Congratulations—you’re halfway there! Celebrate by talking to your baby since s/he can hear you now. Weighing in at about 9 ounces (.25 kg) and measuring over 6 inches (15 cm) long, your baby is aware of all kinds of sounds, from the beating of your heart and growling of your tummy, to songs on the radio and the buzzing of your alarm clock. If you feel a “bounce” in your tummy when you hear a loud noise, it’s because your baby hears it too! This is the start of your baby's active phase. You'll feel every twist, turn, and wiggle. You may also hear your baby’s heartbeat through a stethoscope, and it’s probably faster than you expect—120 to 160 beats per minute.
HAPPY HOLIDAYS Y'ALL!

This is a great means of keeping up with your progress. You look wonderful. It's hard to believe that our little Rachie is going to be a mother. Baby Amato is one lucky baby to have y'all for parents.
Love, Aunt Becky
You look BEAUTIFUL!! I can't believe those skinny long legs on Baby! It's surprising how much they actually will resemble that sonagram photo.
Let me know if you need any tips on the stuff you really need/don't need. Registering was so overwhelming for us.
Big hug to you, you glow!
Ash
