Hi everyone :) It's been a while since an update so thought I would post our first development progression today (as written from the Baby Center website):
8 weeks: Your baby is now 5/8 of an inch long, about the size of a kidney bean. New this week: Webbed fingers and toes are poking out from your baby's hands and feet, his eyelids practically cover his eyes, breathing tubes extend from his throat to the branches of his developing lungs, and his "tail" is just about gone. His arms have lengthened, too, and his hands are now flexed at the wrist and meet over his heart. His knee joints have formed, and his feet may be long enough to meet in front of his body. In his brain, nerve cells are branching out to connect with one another, forming primitive neural pathways.
It's amazing something the size of kidney bean can have so much stuff already! Went for my weekly blood work yesterday. Results won't be back until Monday probably. I'm sure the results will be fine, and I still feel OK so far.
Well today is XMAS Eve. Santa will be coming tonight. I love seeing the girls so excited. Miss being with my family and friends back home but we still try to make it special. Good luck Dee and JJ with your dinner tonight. I will be thinking of everyone there. Merry Christmas!
PS
Since XMAS eve fell on a Thursday do I get to skip my injection tonight? (haha, Just kidding you know I wouldn't mess that up)
