Week 26

So your Pops came down from the excitement of his recent adventures and decided to commit to a little 'wife time' this week.

Went up to visit our friends Matt and Erin up in the mountains above Boise. They loaned us all of your baby furniture (its beautiful) but we realized the dresser was too big for your room so we drove it back up to their house. We brought some of the 40 lbs of fresh salmon your Dad brought back from AK for dinner. And I enjoyed watching the hummingbirds swarm around their feeders!

 

We also received (thanks Grammy C) a NEW CHAIR to rock you in. Hopefully it soooooothes you in the wee hours of the night.

We went up to McCall to 'Tree's Nest' (the Tyree's cabin) and chilled out for 5 days. It was LOVELY. We hung out with Steve and Cindy the first night and then they came back down to Boise. I crocheted some cute things for you. We watched one of my favorite firework shows over Payette Lake from the Loveless family dock. We went swimming at the clubhouse - felt soooo good on my belly. Your Dad hiked in to two different lakes and went fishing - and did pretty good too! We ate lots of good food and got some good deep sleep in the mountain fresh air.

Here are some pics:

What a good life we have :)


Here are some updates about you:

How your baby's growing:

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 1 2/3 pounds and measures 14 inches from head to heel.

 Love you Baby, momz
