On Friday, Erik and I went for our 20-week anatomy scan. Our little girl is healthy and absolutely perfect. It was magical to see how much she's grown. We could see each tiny finger and toe, and she even did some drinking and thumb-sucking. We were in awe! Some stats: She's seven ounces and in the 77 percentile, and I've gained a total of nine pounds. I can even feel her kicks now, usually in the evening and morning; it's like the lightest tickle-tap from inside my belly. That sensation is one of the very best things I've ever felt in my whole life. It's funny how something so natural can seem like such a miraculous feat. As Drake would say, what a time to be alive!
