26 weeks!

Another week down, can't believe it.  We have already begun pulling out the fall clothes because the temps are cooling off some days.  It is hard to believe that October begins this week.  I am preparing for a tag sale that I will do the weekend of Columbus Day in an effort to purge some of our "stuff" to make room for our baby girl... We have LOTS of renovating to do before her arrival and before we know it she is going to be here so we better get moving!  I am in the "get rid of it" mode part of my pregnancy, meaning if I haven't used it in the 4 years we have lived on Lawn Street then GET RID OF IT!

26 weeks are already passed, wow.... Here is my 26 week update:

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

This weekend is busy, as usual... 3 birthday parties to attend and most likely 3 birthday cakes to make.  I'll be making another Transformer cake for my girlfriend's son, Ian.  I enjoy making the cakes for the parties!  Tommy has another soccer game, last weekend he scored TWO of the three goals during his game, he was VERY proud of himself and so weren't we.  I can't wait to see how he does this weekend!

Have a wonderful week everyone!
