"Over the next four days, fingernails, toenails, and hair follicles will appear (these are all specialized parts of the top layer of skin) and your baby will assume a more upright posture. The joints that began to develop during Week 6 now resemble adult joints. Week 9 is a period of rapid growth. The average rate of growth until birth is .06 inch (1.5 mm) in length per day, but the baby will begin to grow even more rapidly at this point" The Pregnancy Journal.
I am really excited that we are growing and doing well. The baby is working hard and I am starting to get my appetite back. On Saturday, we went to a restaurant called Flappyjacks for some breakfast. It was so nice to actually want to eat and be able to eat! Of course, when we came home I was so tired and had to take a nap! :) Naps are very common now. I get very sleepy and sleep seems to be the cure.
Andrew has been working very hard lately, and not just at home! ;) The Citrus Basketball team played a terrific game last night and won their conference championship! He was really pumped up! The gym was backed and you could tell Andrew was excited! I was very proud of him! :) By the way - Citrus beat Bakersfield last night! :) hehe
Andrew and I also got to see baby Hudson for a little bit today! Julie and Dave are doing an amazing job with their little boy! He is tooooo cute! Andrew did a really good job rocking him too! He was a pro! Thank you Jules for the diapers too! ;)
Well, I am really looking forward to March 17th as it is the next time we get to see our little baby! Thank you for all your prayers and love!
