The only fruit or veggie size comparison I was able to find this week referenced a large heirloom tomato. That seems smaller to me than the deli pickle I referenced last week so I'm not sure what to believe. I peeked ahead to next week and read that the baby will be about the size of a small cantaloupe. Now that's sizeable!
I'm still feeling great - in fact I think I may be one of the most boring pregnant women ever. I'll take boring over eventful, though and hope that the remaining 5 months are just as boring. I feel good and in fact mostly don't feel at all pregnant, I don't have cravings (unless you count the vanilla ice cream with oreo cookies I ask Mike to make me each night), and I'm not even showing much at all. In fact, I have a few pictures for those that have asked.
12 weeks (7 weeks ago - I wasn't showing much at all)
And at 18 weeks - this was taken the middle of last week after a dinner out with a friend. Some of that pooch is "I ate too much at dinner" belly.
The most exciting event of the last week is that I felt Baby Ov move for the first time! At first I wasn't quite sure that's what it was, but every day for the last week, I've felt her so I'm pretty darn sure it's the real deal and not just gas. =) It's so nice to get daily confirmations that she's there and presumably doing well.
In other news, we've continued our day care search. It seems so crazy to not even be visibly pregnant yet seriously searching for day care options. We both reached out to our company's employer assistance program to help us find infant care in the area. Between the two, they came up with 10 options. There are only 2-3 that would be feasible for us to actually drive to on a daily basis so hopefully we like one of them.
Our baby room purchases continued this week as well. Another local baby store was having a furniture closeout sale so we met there over lunch on Friday and found a dresser we both really liked and that will go well with the crib we already ordered. It feels good to have these things coming together. Now the only piece of furniture we have left to find for the baby's room is a rocking chair. 
Lastly, I'd like to address Mike's comment regarding the Super Bowl. When he realized the due date was the Super Bowl, he made the request that I hold off going into labor until after the game. I don't know one pregnant woman who's ever hoped to go PAST her due date so sadly, his wish to not miss the big game is not the highest on my priority list!!
