Couple Pictures from WI Trip

Remmert Family - June 2010
Ryder's silly "Cheese" face

Were Back!

After a nice 5 day family vacation, we are back! Exhausted but happy to be home. We had such a great time with our family, and i cant wait to post the pictures we took. That will come as soon as we get them all uploaded. Wisconsin is a lovely, lush green, quaint place, and we would love to go back to visit. The worst part of the trip was the 45,000 bug/mosquito bites we brought home with us. Luckily, they were not interested in Ryder, but Tyson and I got our fair share. Oh Joy!

On a side note...here is our weekly baby bean update (or should we say Kumquat?):

Though he or she is barely the size of a KUMQUAT — a little over an inch or so long, crown to bottom — and weighs less than a quarter of an ounce, your baby has now completed the most critical portion of his development. This is the beginning of the so-called fetal period, a time when the tissues and organs in the body rapidly grow and mature.

He/she is swallowing fluid and kicking up a storm. Vital organs — including his kidneys, intestines, brain, and liver (now making red blood cells in place of the disappearing yolk sac) — are in place and starting to function, though they'll continue to develop throughout your pregnancy.

The outline of his spine is clearly visible through translucent skin, and spinal nerves are beginning to stretch out from his spinal cord. From crown to rump, he/she is about 1 1/4 inches long. In the coming weeks, your baby will again double in size — to nearly 3 inches.

Breakfast Out


This week Tyson took Ryder out to breakfast. This is him eating his pancakes that he was calling Cayess.

Short and Sweet!

Yesterday Ryder had his 20 month birthday. Man he is growing up so fast.

Yesterday our little "kidney bean" baby turned 9 weeks. Cant go fast enough (at least until this first trimester is over).

Tonight I am going out with some of my girlfriends to the Irvine Spectrum for some dinner and a movie. I am looking forward to it!

That's all for now.

8 Weeks

We have our first doctor appointment today, which is very exciting. I am hoping to get to see or hear our little "kidney bean" today.

Here is a bit of weekly information on our little bean:
Your baby is now 5/8 of an inch long, about the size of a kidney bean. New this week: Webbed fingers and toes are poking out from your baby's hands and feet, his eyelids practically cover his eyes, breathing tubes extend from his throat to the branches of his developing lungs, and his "tail" is just about gone. His arms have lengthened, too, and his hands are now flexed at the wrist and meet over his heart. His knee joints have formed, and his feet may be long enough to meet in front of his body. In his brain, nerve cells are branching out to connect with one another, forming primitive neural pathways.

BIG...BIG NEWS!

So, as I promised here's the big news... another Remmert on the way! We found out on Mother's Day...how perfect is that? We have 8 weeks down and 32 to go, the due date is January 19, 2011. Ryder and this baby will be 2 years and 3 months apart. I am feeling quite ill right now, but hoping that will pass in the next month or so. Lets hope this month goes by super fast!

Anyone know how to combat that all day sea-sick feeling that they call morning sickness? Any tips would be greatly appreciated.
