1st Fathers day

Well, today is Father's day. We actually ended up doing things that I wanted to do....but thats just because we usually end up running Mikee's errands when he has time off.
We went to IKEA and got a really fun rug for Atom's room...its actually REALLY huge and very cute!

Atom is about 33ish weeks right now! He has been moving a lot, but is quickly running out of room! Here is a more articulate update:

"This week your baby weighs a little over 4 pounds (heft a pineapple) and has passed the 17-inch mark. He's rapidly losing that wrinkled, alien look and his skeleton is hardening. The bones in his skull aren't fused together, which allows them to move and slightly overlap, thus making it easier for him to fit through the birth canal. (The pressure on the head during birth is so intense that many babies are born with a conehead-like appearance.)"

And:

"If your uterine walls had eyes, here's what you'd see: your fetus acting more and more like a baby, with his or her eyes closing during sleep and opening while awake. And because those uterine walls are becoming thinner, more light penetrates the womb, helping your baby differentiate between day and night (now if only baby can remember that difference on the outside!)."

Atom likes to rest during the day...all of the walking I do puts him to sleep :) But as soon as i can get home and relax, and especially when we get settled down for bed all bets are off! Its like we've been apart all day, and now he finally has my attention and has SO much to tell me! LOL "Mom did you know this..", and "mom did you see when that happened.." It is nice because those are the times that Mikee can see and feel him move. He'll talk to Atom and ask how our day was, and what we did. In the mornings before he leaves Mikee will talk to Atom and tell him to "take care of mama today". I think its just about the sweetest thing ever!
