So here we are at 21 weeks!  The babies are now 10.5 inches long- already!  One site compared them to even bigger bananas than last week… or if you prefer, a pomegranate.  I’m not sure how they come up with these fruit and vegetable comparisons.

Here are the 21 week pictures, as usual:

The news for this week is that I no longer have a belly button- no innie, no outie.  And my new favorite hobby seems to be watching my stomach, since we can see them move now.  The babies are growing nails now- hopefully they don’t start clawing one another in there.  They can also begin to taste what I eat!  Strange and fascinating!

Finally, it has been confirmed by at least three different doctors that we are having a boy and a girl.  So it is now open season for buying pinks and blues!!!
