Week 32

This past weekend we went to the Oregon Coast with the O'Malleys. They were excellent tour guides, knowing all the yummy places to eat (with the exception of the Tiger breakfast place). We played some intense bingo - didn't win squat, spent lots of time on the beach - flying our sweet stunt kites, and wandering through the shops. We stayed in Lincoln City but wandered down to Newport and hit up Rogue Brewery for a self-guided tour and lunch (yummy) and then went to the Newport Aquarium!

At the aquarium.

The four (or five!) of us, gobbled up in one bite!

Bubba n me testing out the gear.

Then on to the kites!!

Initial detangling of the lines since we HAD to get to the beach and couldn't do this in the house/out of the wind... (insert an "I told you so" here)

Finally getting it launched.

What happens when you let go of one of the handles...tangles!!

Lastly, our family portrait in the sand.

• Your baby weighs about 4 pounds and is almost 11 1/2 inches long from crown to rump, or the length of a small watermelon.
• Lanugo, the soft, downy hair that insulates your baby, continues to fall off this week.
• You might notice a change in your baby's movements this week, as he becomes more crowded in your uterus.
• Kicks and movements might seem less powerful.
• Be sure you monitor your baby's movements from time to time, especially if you think you've noticed a decrease in activity. The 10-Kick Count can help.
• Your baby's skin is no longer see-through. It looks more like yours.
