28 Weeks - You Sneaky Little Thing...

My goodness - my first missed weekly update! Here you are on pins and needles wondering which fruit/veggie we are this week and I have left you hanging. My apologies. There is so much to tell you about - Easter, my parent's big move, their beautiful new house!, and updates on our house flood repairs (which the update is that there is no update. ha.)....but in the meantime, here is the 28 week update the day before we hit 29 weeks [sigh]....

How your baby's growing:

By this week, your baby weighs two and a quarter pounds (like a Chinese cabbage) and measures 14.8 inches from the top of her head to her heels. She can blink her eyes, which now sport lashes. With her eyesight developing, she may be able to see the light that filters in through your womb. She's also developing billions of neurons in her brain and adding more body fat in preparation for life in the outside world.

Billions of neurons? Wow. Doesn't that make you want to drink soymilk and eat beef?
