26 weeks

Its so crazy how fast these weeks go. I feel like this past week just flew by. The last seven weeks or so have kind of went slow, but this last one went pretty fast. I figured once the kids were back in school though my life would speed up.

Last week during week 25. I was pretty sick. I came home from work thursday night and just felt awful. I was sick most of the weekend, which was no fun. Being sick, and pregnant is so hard on me.

My god daughter Keira was also adopted by her step dad last week. What an awesome day that was :)

I am officially *26* weeks pregnant. In about fourteen weeks I will have a baby. There is still so much that needs to be done before she comes. I am trying not to freak out about it - Because if you know me. I freak out!

I really want to get her room set up. Its killing me that its not even semi ready yet. I think its time for a heart to heart with the husband =D

Nesting is no joke. I have been cleaning and organizing my house like crazy. I love it, because I dont feel ashamed of it at all and if someone showed up at my house I wouldnt freak out and need to run around and clean :)

On monday we also went to Holly's house for a cookout. That was a lot of fun :)

This is what baby will be doing this week:
At long last your little swimmer can see!
For the first time ever, your wee babe's eyelids have finally opened (remember: they were fused shut previously) and they’re probably having their first moments of sight as you read this (or maybe it already happened while you were brushing your teeth or browsing the internet or something).
In addition to taking in their first visual impressions of their comfy amniotic-filled studio, your little human-bean recently acquired the ability to move their head around.
That's right, if your child were clever enough (which they're not - yet), they could engage in that most basic of non-verbal communication - the head shake/nod. Not to mention, gawking!
In further anti-alien developments: your little super star’s head hair is starting to grow in!
Who knows, maybe a cute little cowlick or two is springing into position right now - the first of years of cute-but-stubborn bed-head.
Your wee piggy's toenails have recently grown in and they're still slowly piling up fat beneath their still-loose-n-wrinkly skin.
Most importantly, their brain tissue and neurons are all developing at a rapid pace, increasing their (genius-level?) brain activity, which will continue to function at accelerated levels for the first eight years of childhood!
