In terms of appearances, Baby O is getting cuter and pudgier every minute as she piles on the baby fat for those adorable little leg rolls and chubby toes. Baby O is a mere 5 lbs and 17 inches in height. And if I haven't hinted towards it already, she's getting stronger with every passing day. Nowadays, it’s possible to observe a well-placed kick just by watching my belly. Baby O sleeps a lot of the time, just as newborn babies do. Her eyes move in the manner of REM sleep and researchers believe that babies can dream vividly even now. When Baby O is awake, she is listening, feeling and learning. (I hope she is listening to Greg whenever he talks to her!)
We just got home from a great (but quick) weekend in Saint Louis. We went to St. Louis for a few showers, and to have a quick weekend with family and friends. Becky's sisters, Sarah and Tina and her Mom flew into town to see the bump and host a shower for Becky. Shani, Greg's sister also threw a shower for Becky, but to her surprise it was a shower for her too (She is only 6 weeks behind Becky in her pregnancy). Somehow we pulled off the surprise, and the party was tons of fun for us both!
It was bittersweet - great to see everyone but so hard to say goodbye again. And of course we didn't get to see everyone that we had hoped to see, or spend enough time with those that we did see!

*Even though I carried around my camera all weekend I didn't take many photos. If you have photos from the weekend will you please email them to me? I'd love to post more pics....XOXO, B.
