Well the bean is now an international traveller. We made it to Europe and back and did pretty well! I was actually a little surprised by how well I got around. I was only done in by steep hills! I can't believe how fast I lose my breath going up stairs and hills. Silly.
We had an amazing time and especially enjoyed visiting Lance's sister Brodine, her husband David and their 8 month baby Indigo. It was so amazing to see Lance around a baby and how comfortable he was with her. I can't wait for Lance to meet his daughter. Melts my heart. Brodine was so generous and sent us home with a HUGE suitcase filled with baby clothes. Kaylee is spoiled already. :)
Lastly, we started our labor basics class. So far I haven't freaked out! We've set up a few more baby classes including feeding, CPR, basic baby care and Lance is even taking a "dads only" class. Can you tell we're first time parents? HAHA!!
What the baby is doing: The baby is growing rapidly now and is 11 inches long with a weight of 1.25 to 1.5 pounds. The baby’s brain is developing rapidly during this period and so are the lungs and the taste buds. The main lungs are developing branches as well as special cells that produce surfactant needed to inflate the air sacs
Weird Preggo Stuff: This week: hot flashes! Since I am ALWAYS cold, being warm is almost a welcome addition. Now I can wear short sleeves in the office and not freeze.
Mind Blowing Thought of the Week: In three months, I won't have a baby growing in my belly anymore, she'll be growing in our arms!
What I miss: Staying up past 10pm!
What is exciting: I have been feeling really good. I must admit that I didn't think I would feel as well as I do. It makes me pretty happy that everything is going well and I haven't had any horrible symptoms.
Upcoming Events: Painting the baby's room and setting up the furniture.
