Time seems to be flying by. Next thing I know we'll be a family of four! Can I admit that I'm nervous? I'm nervous about the birth. I'm nervous about having an extra bean to physically handle. However, I'm sure it will all be fine. Right?
EM has been enjoying lots of daddy time. LOTS of it. My my heart happy to see the two of them enjoying each other. He's getting to be a pro scooter rider. I think the snappy new helmet we got him has given him an added does of confidence. :)
Babylove#2 is seriously moving all of the place. I think he's filming a remake of Saturday Night Fever or Kung Fu Panda. The other night, daddy and I were talking before the Sandman attacked. All of a sudden there was this little something - a foot? a butt bone? - sticking out and it wasn't moving. I rubbed it and talked to it (the bump) and finally Babylove did a little dance and went to sleep.
We finally have all the nursery furniture put together. Now to wash all the "stuff" and make a little more welcoming. I'll post some pictures of our work in progress. Our theme is furry little woodland creatures. My mom thinks most of the creatures look a little scary. I'm sure once kiddo gets a look a mommy after I've delivered him, or even the early morning version of mommy, he's not gonna be phased by the little squirrels and deer.
From BabyCenter:
Your baby's growing steadily, having gained about 4 ounces since last week. That puts him at just over a pound. Since he's almost a foot long (picture an ear of corn), he cuts a pretty lean figure at this point, but his body is filling out proportionally and he'll soon start to plump up. His brain is also growing quickly now, and his taste buds are continuing to develop. His lungs are developing "branches" of the respiratory "tree" as well as cells that produce surfactant, a substance that will help his air sacs inflate once he hits the outside world. His skin is still thin and translucent, but that will start to change soon.
Pictures coming soon
