This Week I Am Learning To...

...develop my 5 senses. I can hear so well now, I like to jam to music with Mommy in the car. I still LOVE to hear my Daddy's voice and I am working harder and harder to kick his hand when he feels Mommy's big belly. I also like to blink, sometimes the lights are so bright I squint to avoid the brightness.

This Week I Am Learning To...

…listen to what is around me; my inner ear has formed its bones and the nerve endings in my brain have developed so that I can hear everything (I especially love listening to my daddy’s voice!)! I listen to Mommy’s blood flow and her heartbeat is a soothing sound for me. If I hear a loud noise though I will defiantly cover my ears!

My eyes are doing their job well, although they are still closed, I can see bright light sometimes and don’t like it so much.

My lungs are forming the alveoli sacs, so I can work up that big scream when I face this world in a few months. My vocal chords are formed; I periodically practice the fine art of crying (my parentals will appreciate the fact that I have had practice when I get outta here).

So far, I just hang out in here and do a few somersaults every now and then to make sure Mommy knows I’m still here; I’ll see you all sooner or later!
