Your baby's eyebrows and eyelashes are now well formed. The hair on her head is longer and more plentiful. Your baby still looks red and wrinkled, but more fat is accumulating under the skin with each passing day. As your baby continues to gain weight over the next 14 weeks until birth, this wrinkly suit of skin will become a better fit.
Your baby's footprints and fingerprints are also formed. All the components that make up the eyes have developed, but your bay probably won't open her eyes for about two more weeks. By 26 weeks, your baby weights between 1 1/2 and 2 pounds.

Not too many changes this week. Baby is still kicking and turning and rolling. It's so fun to feel and to watch.
On Sunday, Chinese New Year, we went to dim sum and it was awesome!!! We were talking
about how we can bring the baby next year. She'll be about 9 months old so I think she'll be able to handle some of the noodle wrappings, sticky buns, and jello-like desserts :) On Monday morning (Kris had the day off) we had planned to get donuts and enjoy the Olympics, but the donut shop was closed :( Of course, all day long I kept thinking about donuts, so we finally made a grocery store run that evening...Kris is the best!
Mom is coming on Friday and we'll start painting the Dr. Seuss characters on the nursery walls this weekend. I'll definitely have to post pictures after we're done.
Last, but not least, Kris surprised me with a cute gift for the baby...
Love the bib :)
ReplyDeleteRyan & I talked about the same thing @ Dim Sum this weekend! And Michelle - you have to check this kid's book out: Dim Sum for Everyone. It's super cute - my mom gave it to Ryan for Valentine's Day.
Have a great week!
