petite kitten is now the size of a canteloupe, and around a foot long! our little $5 footlong has almost reached the gestational age of viability, meaning if she were born now she would potentially be able to survive. babycenter says my uterus is the size of a soccer ball, but i'm just not sure how that's possible or where it all fits in there. i felt a weird movement across my belly yesterday right below my belly button, and then started getting a lot of bumps much higher up than usual, so i'm wondering if she flipped over and is no longer breech.
our little family is about to go through our first tropical storm/hurricane together. isaac is closing in this afternoon and is projected to become a category 1 hurricane over us or just after it passes by us. we stocked up on water, bread, peanut butter, jelly, pretzels, and flashlights -- all the essentials! we're going to go pick up some sandbags this afternoon when i leave work just in case it rains into our apartment, which i have a feeling it will based on the odd design. the building is solid concrete new construction, so i'm not worried about the wind, just the rain. i'm kind of excited but a little nervous, mainly about losing power and being miserably hot. i already sweat enough with the A/C running constantly! if our internet still works, i'll try to update on how things are going.

Please keep my little Cantaloupe, my Nelliebean, my Nanny Danny, and Colby safe. Remind Danny that since he does not yet know how to swim, he should stay away from the surf. Your Dad would LOVE to be in this with you, you know that don't you? Crazy.
