Wow...15 weeks left! This week, the baby measures 13 1/2 inches-the length of the recorder that you played in elementary school. His weight is about a pound and a half. His wrinkled skin will begin to smooth out and he'll start to look more and more like a newborn. He's growing more hair (or at least we hope)! His arms and legs have grown to almost the proportions they will be at birth. Small blood vessels, or capillaries, are forming under the skin and filling with blood-giving the baby a healthy pink glow. The baby's eyes are forming, and the baby will soon perfect a blink!
So Cobi isn't quite sure what to think about this new baby stuff showing up around the house. I was trying to take a picture of the fabulous boy outfits that my mom and sister bought us once we found out that we were having a boy. I laid them all out and here comes Cobi to plop right down on top of them-I think he thinks that the clothes are all his. Oh, what are we going to do with two dogs and a baby??? Chris and I were trying to figure out how these puppies are going to get their twice a day daily walks in the middle of winter once the baby arrives...hmmm...
One thing that we have accomplished: we bought a crib!!! It was our second Babies R Us adventure and Chris wasn't going to leave there until we had picked out and purchased a crib, which isn't easy if you know my indecisiveness! It comes in later this month so once we have it set up, we will post some pictures!
And yes, we haven't picked a name yet (once again, indecisiveness). We got some ideas in an email from my brother, soon to be Uncle Andy, which include: Tito, Igor, Shel, and Don Juan de Rogers just to name a few. Any other suggestions???
