Snickers or Milky Way?

A couple of Saturdays ago, while Ryan's parents were here, I lay down for bed and noticed a weird sensation in my belly...like a fluttering in my abdomen. It felt kindof like gas, only different. I kindof dismissed it at first because it felt so faint & I hadn't had that feeling before. I've felt it several times since then, usually when I lie down to go to sleep & I've noticed that its more common if I have had something like orange juice or lemonade to drink (especially if I wake up early in the morning then go back to bed). So it seems a little weird but I guess what I am feeling is that baby moving around in there!

I was reading something about how large the baby should be right now & I mentioned to Ryan that the book said the baby is about 5-6 inches long and weighs about 5 ounces. He says, "it's like a little Snickers bar floating around in there!" Of course, then he clarified and said that it would have to be a boy if it were a Snickers bar because Snickers have nuts! Ha! He decided that if it were a girl it would have to be a Milky Way. So, I wonder if we are going to have a Snickers or a Milky Way? The sonogram is coming up soon, Dec 10, but we are still planning to wait until Christmas to find out what the doctors think it is. Wouldn't it be crazy if they thought the baby was one sex only to have it be born and it be the other!?! The sonogram isn't an exact science after all. I guess we just have to wait and see!
