It's Not a Lima Bean, It's a Potato!

Rachel finally got her test results back and had her first ultra-sound today, confirming her & Tom's little baby is 9 weeks along with a healthy heartbeat! Hooray!



She thought the baby was only the size of a lima bean, but I guess it is about as big as a potato at this point? I read up on weekly fetus growth on Robyn's Nest, finding out his/her major organs are developing, and he/she should have dark spots on the head where the eyes and nose will develop. Oh, and he/she is about the size of a tennis ball, but Tom and Rachel said the arms and legs are just spuds, so I'm picturing a potato. A sweet potato!!! ;-)
