Facts and Figures
I realize I haven't listed any information about how far along Kim is or any stats like that. That's because, one I forgot and two it has been very confusing for me. Some people say I am a smarty and able to understand things very easily. Not this pregnancy thing.
I blame it on our doctor.
It all started with the first office visit. When Kim called to set up our first appointment, they told us we had to wait till she was 8 weeks. So we did. When we got there the doctor said Kim was 61/2 weeks. Huh. Something about... he doesn't count the two weeks we count. I don't know.
All I know is that when I put in the date of Kim’s last period in the Babycenter.com, I get the same due date as the doctor. They provide a week by week progress list, the doctor didn't, so I will go by their weeks.
So here are some stats*
Date of birth** : February 9, 2006
gender*** : Female
Current status (weeks) : 11 weeks
Room status : not started
Kim's emotion status**** : Happy
Nausea level : moderate
I'll use Babycenter.com for the fetus descriptions. I'm not sure if they are the best but that is one of the websites Kim looked at. So until I find something better it will be the standard.
Our kid should be around 1 1/2 inches long and fully shaped with her fingers and toes separated, ready to open and close. The site also says she is probably kicking and stretching, although Kim won't feel that for a while. Her skin is transparent, allowing some blood vessels to show. That last bit sounds a lot like me.

*stats are subject to change upon finding out Him is stupid and was wrong
**subject to change, contest possibilities
***assuming the Baby Gender Mentor people don't suck and know what they are doing
****Subject to change based on Him's attentiveness and Kim's nausea level
