Saturday: Deacon and I participated in the Dallas Arthritis Walk to support one of the fosters with our Boxer rescue group. Apache was the dog hero of the walk and it was really fun to go out and be a part of his team!
Sunday: Scott's new boss reserved a suite at the Rangers game and invited us to join him. We had lots of fun at the game and it was nice to be able to bring Deacon since normally we couldn't do that. It's not a great picture of us, but it will work since Deacon was not in the mood for a photo shoot!
I have to share this one with you guys... Cutest picture EVER! I call it "Big paws, little paws" :)
Baby Bennett Update! 22 weeks and counting!
Your Mini's hands have grown bigger and stronger and the nerve endings in her fingers have developed her sense of touch. She's in there testing out her newfound abilities by touching her face and grabbing the umbilical cord. Other cool developments:
You're already raising a little Einstein. Your baby's brain is developing at a clip this week and will continue to do so until she's five years old (so load up on the Omega 3)!
Baby's hair is now a short, bright white crop (Billy Idol, eat your heart out!). No matter what color it will end up—red, blonde, black—all babies' hair lacks pigment at this point.
Your baby has started growing taste buds and may be able to detect strong flavors in the amniotic fluid. If you could see inside, you might catch her sticking out her tongue for a taste and then grimacing, a sign that perhaps you should chill on the chili powder.
Your baby now weighs almost a pound and measures almost 11 inches from her head to her heel, which is how the Stretch Armstrong in your uterus will be measured from here on out. Up 'til now your baby's legs were curled tight up against her torso, so she was measured from her head to her bottom (or crown to rump) and not head to toe. This week your mini is about as long as a package of Oreos and as heavy as a large bag of tortilla chips. Who's hungry?
