The past two weeks..

It's been a long and lazy two weeks. Last weekend, Ray and I finished the nursery, went to the beach and what not. This last week was filly with grocery shopping and being lazy. :D This weekend nothing much happened, Ray played video games, I shopped and we lazed about Sunday. LOL Here are my bump shots though. I promise I will try and be better about blog updating... I was more interested in nesting then updating my blog these last two weeks... But I should be good now.. :D

How your baby's growing

Head to heels, your baby now measures about 13 1/2 inches. His weight — a pound and a half — isn't much more than an average rutabaga, but he's beginning to exchange his long, lean look for some baby fat. As he does, his wrinkled skin will begin to smooth out and he'll start to look more and more like a newborn. He's also growing more hair — and if you could see it, you'd now be able to discern its color and texture.

There are still a few things that I want to do for the room but as of right now, if Koen were to be here, everything would be set and good to go :D I absolutely love our nursery and technically, it's the only "completed" room in the house. I've been nesting... hehehe

24 weeks

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, 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.
