tired tuesday

i've been having a lot of those, wide-awake-in-the-middle-of-the-night moments lately and it's the worst! can't get comfortable, can't get back to sleep, worrying about all the ridiculous things in life that i have no business worrying over. so, my middle of the night moment turned into hours of tossing and turning so since i've been up since 3 i figured it's time to blog :) i suppose not sleeping is good baby weber preparation--and boy are we preparing! i figured out that if m.v.w. came home with us in 11 weeks she'd be the same as amelie--which kind of shocked me into gear! it seems to go fast and slow at the same time! we went to USA baby this weekend and looked at the stroller i've been wanting in person for the first time, gaze on it's beauty:

it's actually better in real life then it is on the screen and i can't wait to bring it home! i'm really enjoying all of this baby shopping since i'm not sure i'm gonna wanna walk down this road again anytime soon (if at all!)!
we don't have anything planned for today, just an errand at walmart and maybe a visit to steve at work!
our 6th anniversary is saturday! i can't believe how quickly the time has flown, how much we have been through together and what good friends we are--i'm so thankful for my husband, but here i am getting ahead of myself--here's what m.v.w. is up to this
week:


Week 24
Your Baby's Development

This week Baby prepares herself for a big, lusty cry upon arrival. Her lungs are beginning to produce surfactant, a wetting agent that will help her breathe correctly and will keep her tiny lungs from collapsing or sticking together. Blood vessels and air sacs are developing in the lungs and will eventually exchange oxygen and circulate it to all parts of Baby's body.

Baby still has a lot of growing to do. At 1.2 pounds and eight to nine inches, she should add at least another five pounds before birth for optimum health.

This week, the following developments may occur:

The inner ear, which controls balance, will become fully formed. This means that your baby may be able to tell when she is upside down or right side up while floating in the amniotic fluid.
Baby will continue to explore her internal environment, flexing her fingers and touching her surroundings.
