The big 30!!! (10 weeks left)

Tank is coming in around 3 pounds and is over 17 inches. He weighs as  much as a large cabbage (not Alaskan cabbage). Next week its compared to a Pineapple, which I feel more appropriate than a cabbage!! Baby is continuing to grow and put on fat and ossify his bones. His hearing is improved and can react to sound. I have found this to be true. Tank knows Kris’s voice. Kris was gone this weekend and Tank did not move as much. I’ve noticed this as a pattern. Yes he does move more when I am laying in bed but he moves even more when Kris and I are laying in bed together and he has his hand on my belly. It’s pretty interesting to know that Tank can recognize our voices already. As for me, I’m just gaining more and more weight! My ankles have began to swell after a 10 hour work day…..it’s ugly. It’s not like its huge, you can just tell where my socks are but I think they look like a Vienna sausage.

We are excited to head home. We fly out Friday Morning and will arrive in Pocatello on Friday around noon. I am so excited to be able to share Tank with family.

Kris had a good weekend. He and three other guys went out on a boat and shrimped and fish for the weekend in the Prince William Sound.  They caught lots of fresh shrimp. I on the other hand got affairs in order. We have our nursery more organized, an appointment with a pediatrician, and of course I was able to squeeze in a massage!
