My birthday has been absolutely fabulous! I woke up to cards from Mark, Beans, Grace and our Baby Girl...she is one smart cookie! :) I also went to work and was greeted with a surprise party from my class, I got flowers at work from Mark, Beans, Grace and Baby L, and then later in the afternoon flowers from my mom and dad!!! Let's just say I felt very loved! :)

What is Baby L doing at 22 weeks???
At 11 inches (the length of a spaghetti squash) and almost 1 pound, your baby is starting to look like a miniature newborn. Her lips, eyelids, and eyebrows are becoming more distinct, and she's even developing tiny tooth buds beneath her gums. Her eyes have formed, but her irises (the colored part of the eye) still lack pigment. If you could see inside your womb, you'd be able to spot the fine hair (lanugo) that covers her body and the deep wrinkles on her skin, which she'll sport until she adds a padding of fat to fill them in. Inside her belly, her pancreas — essential for the production of some important hormones — is developing steadily.
I hope everyone is having a great week! Thanks again for making my birthday so special! I feel so blessed to have such wonderful family and friends!
Love,
Missy

Awww, I love seeing your bump, so cute! Glad you had such a great birthday! :)
ReplyDeleteCute! Do you have or have you seen "In the Womb"? It's an awesome video that documents each week in the baby's life. I think it's from National Geographic.
