b.o.b. bump @ 26 weeks

As you can see I skipped last week's picture.  I was just too busy wrapping up the last week of school and really tired.  Today marked my last work day and my summer has officially started!

Our Lil' Miss has been on the move as usual!  She was supper active this morning...I think it may have been hiccups.  It's hard to believe she is around 9inches (14inches head to toe) and almost 2lbs.  Her vegetable comparison is currently an eggplant.  This week her eyelids will begin to open and close as they have been fused together previous to this time, she will begin practicing breathing by inhaling and exhaling amniotic fluid, and her brain is taking on a large growth spurt which will consume 50% of her energy.  Some scientists suggest that she may even begin to recognize our voice.  I am sure she may be sick of hearing us by the time she is born because we talk to her all the time.

I have accomplished some of my To-Do list.  I organized the attic this past Sunday.  I cleaned out boxes.  Made a pile of stuff to try to sell or take to Goodwill.  I even labeled all of our boxes.  I need organization completed before b.o.b. gets here because we will only accumulate more items to store in the attic.  I also contacted a Doula that we are going to speak with next week.  I am very excited about this because we have decided to have our birth at the hospital, so the next thing that I did want was to at least have a Doula. 

Well here I am, all smiles for the beginning of a great summer!
