Well, we made it to 14 weeks and low and behold I actually managed to stay awake last night until 9:30! WOW!!! Haha, if you ask Adam he will probably tell you that that hasn't happened at home in about two months! I only feel nauseous when I eat something that doesn't agree with what Baby Cahill likes so I'm so glad to have said goodbye to that all of the time feeling of it that I had about a month or so ago. Suspiciously enought I have trouble with healthy foods and veggies... Guess it'll like Chipotle, cheeseburgers, and Blizzards like Adam and I do! I've been having a few headaches now but everything that I've read says that they can be normal due to all of the hormones. Today has so far been headache free though!
Around the house we are little by little starting to move some things around for the Jelly Bean. I've been cleaning out closets, moving clothes around, and Adam moved two beds for us as well. We'll be turing the office into the baby's room and the furniture will be on it's way in a few more weeks. So exciting!
As far as devlopment goes, this week the baby can now squint, frown, grimace, go to the bathroom, and possibly suck his thumb! Thanks to brain impulses, his facial muscles are getting a workout as his tiny features form one expression after another. His kidneys are producing urine, which he releases into the amniotic fluid around him — a process he'll keep up until birth. He can grasp, too, and if we had an ultrasound now, you may even catch him sucking his thumb.In other news: The baby's stretching out. From head to bottom, he measures 3 1/2 inches — about the size of a lemon — and he weighs 1 1/2 ounces. I still find it amazing that all of that is going on in there and I can't feel it yet!
It's the week of the lemon: Click here for more info:

Ahhh yes... a later bedtime... DH teases me that my bedtime is 6:30. It's better now, but man, for a while there, I was going to bed while it was still light out when I was going to sleep!
