So this week Isaac and I have been taking it easy. I think we have nearly watched a total of ten disney movies and Toy Story at least once a day. :-) In addition, I think after this week Isaac will have every one of his books memorized, including the Bird Book with 400 bird sounds. LOL. Anyhow, we are doing really well and hope to be back at 100% next week. I really cannot wait to get back to walking and yoga. My body is aching from sitting so much! Arie has an exam tomorrow and Saturday so he has been helping out as much as possible while maintaining his study schedule. Once this weekend is over we will have more time together which will be so nice. Good Luck, Arie! This exam is for his licensure requirements.
Week 9 Update:
How your baby's growing:Your new resident is nearly an inch long — about the size of a grape — and weighs just a fraction of an ounce. She's starting to look more and more human. Her essential body parts are accounted for, though they'll go through plenty of fine-tuning in the coming months. Other changes abound: Your baby's heart finishes dividing into four chambers, and the valves start to form — as do her tiny teeth. The embryonic "tail" is completely gone. Your baby's organs, muscles, and nerves are kicking into gear. The external sex organs are there but won't be distinguishable as male or female for another few weeks. Her eyes are fully formed, but her eyelids are fused shut and won't open until 27 weeks. She has tiny earlobes, and her mouth, nose, and nostrils are more distinct. The placenta is developed enough now to take over most of the critical job of producing hormones. Now that your baby's basic physiology is in place, she's poised for rapid weight gain.
