Last week...

went way too fast!  We're at 33 weeks today!

Here's what's going on with the little one:
*Her head has increased 3/8ths of an inch due to rapid brain growth
*Most of the bones are hardening
*She is taking deep breaths of water which exercises her muscles and encourages her lung cells to produce more surfactant (which is a protein essential for healthy lung development)
*The average length right now is 17.2 inches and weight is 4.23 pounds
