The nursery

I have finally decided that I am going to do a Dr. Seuss nursery and I am so excited. I love the primary colors, and who doesn't like Dr. Seuss books! I have a little bit of work ahead of me... This is the bed set that I want to get and my inspiration for decorating. I love the reds and yellows and think I'll do most of my accenting in those colors.









25 weeks

This is where I am at right now...it is crazy to think that I have a little miniture baby in me. Tyler felt her move for the first time this week...that was really really fun.
This is from i-am-pregnant.com
Your baby's crown-to-rump length is about 8.8 inches. Weight has increased to around 1.5 pounds and fat is still being deposited at a high rate. Babies come in all shapes and sizes, so your baby could vary slightly from these `average` measurements. Your uterus has grown quite a bit bigger this week. The top of your uterus is between your bellybutton and your sternum. Your uterus is about the size of a soccer ball now!

If your baby is delivered at this time, it would have a good chance of surviving. It is best for your baby to remain inside of you for the remainder of the pregnancy, but great advances have been made in the care of a premature baby. Ventilators, monitors and medications all help premature babies develop and grow outside of the womb. If your baby were born this early, he would probably have to spend several months in the hospital and would be more susceptible to infections and other complications.

You can hear your baby's heartbeat with both a Doppler and a stethoscope at this time, and your partner may even be able to hear the heartbeat unaided if he puts his ear in the right position. Sex differentiation is being completed now. If you are expecting a baby boy, the testes start to descend into the scrotum. In baby girls, the vagina is hollowing out. Your baby is able to do more with their fingers now and can move his fingers to make a complete fist. As your baby becomes more dexterous, he will be able to touch and hold his feet. Babies also begin to prefer their left hand or right hand at this time. Because babies settle into routines of sleep and activity, you might begin to notice these patterns as well. Some women experience the most fetal movements while they are trying to rest.

You are in trouble!!

I just want to say to all of you who have decided to go private on your blogs and not give me an invitation...I'm mad at you! Here I am trying to keep up on your life and I get a screen that says...you have not been invited to read this blog. I don't know how many more of those I can handle.... Just slap me in the face why don't you! It brings me back to 1st grade when everyone else got the birthday invite, but not me.

Sleep Biting

Sorry...I know I am terrible at keeping up on this thing, but I have a short funny story. Last night I woke up to Tyler saying, "Why did you bite me?!" I vaguely remember doing it, but I did...I bit him in my sleep. Some people walk, some people talk, and some people bite. I wish I could remember the dream I was having. I'm pretty sure he made me mad. LOL! So, when he told me this morning I asked where I bit him...it was his shoulder. He's lucky he didn't have his fingers close to my mouth! He said I bit him really hard too...LOL! Moral of the story...don't tick me off in my dreams!

Tyler's Prayer

Last night Tyler was praying. Here is the middle part of his prayer. Note there was no pauses or signs that he was falling asleep....
"Please bless that Jenny won't attract anymore animals and that she will be safe for the rest of the day." Then he went right back to saying normal things. It was so funny but I held it in until he was done. I was cracking up and what is even funnier is that he didn't remember it at all. Usually when he does that he says oh yeah i was having a dream about... Nope this time! No recollection whatsoever. So, I wonder what type of animal I was attracting and what the reason was?
