24 weeks!

It feels like yesterday we saw our little girl for the first time and they told me I was 7 weeks along. The last 17 weeks have gone by fairly fast. And in less than 16 weeks we will get to meet her, yay!!
This week I have continued to sort through Aydan's clothes, wash stuff, hang some, and store some back that we won't need for awhile. Aydan's bed rail for his new bed came, its cute and he keep trying to play with it and store his tools in it. The office is coming along towards being an office/guest bedroom. Grandpa got the bookcase out and painted the wall behind it. yay! Huge relief. I had parent teacher conferences this weeks so didn't get much else done.

Baby progress: The baby is now anywhere from 13-15 in long. And weighs about 1 1/2 lbs (the weight is compared to a rubtabaga, which is a yellow Sweedish turnip). This week the brain is continuing to grow quickly and taste buds are continuing too. The lungs are developing branches of the respiratory lines, as well as the cells that help the air sacs inflate once she's out in the world. Her skin is still thin and translucent, but it will start to change soon too. She will also start turning the lean little body in for some baby fat!

Feeling ok this week. Only one bad evening. Little girl decided she would kick me/move around every 15 seconds or so Thursday night, when I had 4 hours of parent conference. So... by the time I got done I felt like I was going to throw up. When I got home and laid down Justin came over to feel her move.. felt around 20 strong kicks and replied "She is punting your stomach!"... I said, I know!

 Same profile I've done every week.

 Did this one with shirt over the belly, because I think you can see the roundness my belly is doing with shirt over it a little more. Wearing a pre-baby tank top. Yup, she's a growing.

And here's Aydan all tucked in bed while I was taking pictures.. watch Dora of course!
