VIVA LAS VEGAS! I had a work conference this week in Las Vegas that I attended. I'm sorry to report that I did not win that million dollars I had hoped for, nor did I even break even! haha I didn't have any issues with the trip besides the flights. I had a layover in MN but then a 3 hour flight to Las Vegas during which I had excruciating sciatic pain and flying in a packed coach section didn't provide for me to really get up a stretch a whole lot. I don't have issues with walking or anything like that yet so walking around to different sessions in the gigantic Ceaser's hotel or downtown to different casinos was fine. We tried to see the Bellagio fountains/light show on our free night Friday but it was so cold/rainy/windy that after 10 min of waiting we just left to get in the warm car :)
24 week update - Ear of Corn!
Your baby's growing steadily, having gained about 4 ounces since last week. That puts him at just over a pound. Since he's almost a foot long (picture an ear of corn), he cuts a pretty lean figure at this point, but his body is filling out proportionally and he'll soon start to plump up. His brain is also growing quickly now, and his taste buds are continuing to develop. His lungs are developing "branches" of the respiratory "tree" as well as cells that produce surfactant, a substance that will help his air sacs inflate once he hits the outside world. His skin is still thin and translucent, but that will start to change soon.
