Tomorrow starts Week #34

...and that means I'm just three weeks from term! And just about seven weeks from my due date.

I probably weigh between 4 and 5 pounds now, and since my brain and synapses are connecting up better with my eyes and ears, they think I can really distinguish colors and sounds now. Mom impulse-bought some baby music yesterday -- classical songs and lullabies -- and she went right to sleep while listening to them, while I just kept on groovin'. I might have also been a little hyper from the pumpkin pie. Mmmmm, pumpkin pie.

I'm causing mom some leg-swelling and headaches now, and she's been super tired. And short of breath -- I think I take up a lot of the space where her lungs would usually inflate. But she's being a pretty good host -- she got one of those bouncy balls, and sits on it to let me bounce around. It's a nice feeling.
