Baby Abigail this week

What is going on in Abigail's world this week....her brain can now control her breathing and body temperature. She can also cough, and her sucking abilities have been perfected. Her skin is looking less wrinkled as she packs on the pounds. She's now beefing up on the energizing and insulating white fat she'll be born with (unfortunately, white fat is not energizing and insulating for adults!). She is full of energy these days. She is a little over 15 inches long—about the length of a loaf of bread—and weighs about 3 pounds, as much as a Macbook Air laptop. Wow, huh! I find myself thinking more and more about her and can't wait to cuddle with her...she will be here soon in the meantime I am getting bigger and bigger as she grows, of course! :) Funny story--the other day Andrew was sitting with Dustin and pointed to his belly and asked, "Is Abigail in there?" He! We all laughed...Daddy's belly isn't nearly as big as Mommy's. Funny Andrew.
