week 33

Baby's now the size of a honeydew!
Things are heating up inside as well: Baby may grow up to a full inch this week alone, and his brain is developing like crazy. Pretty soon, he'll be able to coordinate breathing with sucking and swallowing. Also, his bones are hardening, and he's started to keep his eyes open when he's awake.

Happy Birthday to ziggy's bff... sawyer. May 25th 2010.

week 32

Feeling good for 8 weeks to go! Lots of movement which is very entertaining.
Happy Birthday Jason!
Sabastian and Sadie on Jason's birthday.
Oh boy oh boy!! lots of hand me downs!

week (almost) 30

in his messy boy's room
As baby's skin smoothes out, his brain just keeps getting more wrinkled. All those grooves and indentations increase surface area, meaning more room for that oh-so-essential brain tissue. he's also adding some brawn -- his grip is now strong enough to grasp a finger.
his crib with home made goodies and some old classic teddys... carolyn's, mine, and hunter's.

week 28

This boy has been quite the mover and shaker and I love it!!



Baby's lungs are mature enough that, if born right now, she has a pretty good chance of surviving (with help from medical technology). Her skin is still pretty wrinkly (one byproduct of living in amniotic fluid) but will smoothen as fat continues to deposit.

week 27

I've be very bad at taking pictures lately ( week 26 - no pic ). This one taken with Jason's phone mid golf round.



Baby's lungs are going through some major developments these days, which (combined with the opening of previously plugged nostrils) means he's now able to practice inhaling and exhaling. The lack of air in your womb means every "breath" is filled with amniotic fluid, but hey -- it's progress.

week 25

Baby's now the size of an eggplant!
That oh-so-handy sense of equilibrium is kicking in, and baby's learning to distinguish right side up from upside down.


Happy Easter!
