Week 22 Highlights
My friend Robyn brought her twin boys to Omaha for shoe shopping, lunch at Sgt. Peffer's, and of course, playtime at the park!
Dad, Baby, Macy and I headed to Summerhaven Lake to enjoy the nice weather.
Match Day - we found out that our family gets to stay in Omaha while I complete my pediatric residency!
Baby's gender was confirmed - it's time to think BLUE!
Grandma, Aunt Kelsey and I worked on Baby's registry at Target.
This week in development
Baby is as long as a spaghetti squash
Baby now weighs close to a pound!
Tiny tooth buds are developing beneath Baby's gums
Sense of touch is developing more and more each day, and Baby probably grabs onto the umbilical cord every now and then
As sense of sight also continues to develop, Baby is getting better at perceiving light and dark (although it's mostly dark in there)
More hair is coming in, but you'd never guess what color it is... Brown? Red? Blonde? Nope, it's bright white (for now, anyways)
How's Mom doing?
I'm doing great! I had the last week off from school because of Match Day, so I've been enjoying some free time lately. And this next week is my last week of classes before I have a month of vacation followed by graduation. Life's rough, huh? Right now, I'm getting used to my growing belly and the thought of being a little boy's mommy! It's all very exciting! That upper back pain still nags me, but I've found that it gets a little better if I stand up, lay down, or increase my lumbar support while sitting.
How's Dad doing?
Dad was very relieved to find out on Match Day that we won't be moving! In the basement, the last layer of drywall mud went up today, and paint has now been purchased. For fun this week, Dad joined some friends for a fish fry. Both Mom and Dad traveled to David City to celebrate St. Patrick's Day on Saturday. :)
