26 weeks

We are now 26 weeks along! It's going by so fast....AJ and I are getting more anxious to meet our little guy! You won't believe it but we finally decided on a crib and dresser for the nursery and we bought them this past weekend....the dresser we get now but we have to wait for the crib to be delivered (hopefully it comes before the baby does!). Here's what's going on with our little guy this week:

The network of nerves in your baby's ears is better developed and more sensitive than before. He may now be able to hear both your voice and your partner's as you chat with each other. He's inhaling and exhaling small amounts of amniotic fluid, which is essential for the development of his lungs. These so-called breathing movements are also good practice for when he's born and takes that first gulp of air. And he's continuing to put on baby fat. He now weighs about a pound and two-thirds and measures 14 inches (an English hothouse cucumber) from head to heel.

This past weekend AJ's mom, sister and Ben came to visit us....we were so glad to have them!! Although Nala wasn't too awfully happy about her house guest Mugs (Christa and Ben's dog)......but Nala needs to learn to start sharing!
Here's the crew on our deck:


Also, we started organizing all of the little guys clothes.....and this is as far as we got

...but it's a start....now that they are separated by sizes we need to wash them and then we can start putting them in the dresser and closet! Yay...Progress!!
