Lots of stuff going on! It's inching closer to the Holidays and you're debut so everyone is pretty busy. Some busy with less important stuff than others....
Three of your Uncles are in a bit of a frenzy. Call of Duty: Black Ops came out 2 days ago. Yeah, ridiculous is right. From as much as I can tell, they all still have their jobs so far. No telling if your cousin has seen her father without a headset on since the 9th though. I have nothing against video games, but if it prevents Thanksgiving celebrations, I may go Black Ops on some people myself. Your other Uncle couldn't care less. He's more concerned with cigars.
Your nursery is coming together quite nicely! I have seen pics of the process. Your Mom has a real slash and burn operation going on, dude. Your Dad seems a tad worried. I asked your Mom if she would let him help and then we both laughed at the image of him painting. He declared this morning that if you turn out to be a girl, his "mind will be blown". I still say you are one. Just so we're clear, I will love you either way even if my blog below makes you think otherwise.
Back to your Mom. What. A. Freak. All I know is, you haven't slowed her down one bit. She tried to finish your nursery by herself today, but had some paint issues. When she was on the phone with me outside the paint store, she actually debated on picking up some parking lot hired help. I quickly and strongly advised against this. Sometimes she says things like "I'm seriously thinking about doing this" and doesn't mean it... but sometimes she does. It's hard to tell with that one. Anyhoo, she texted me at my request once she arrived back home minus a possible... ethnic helper. She did say that you seem as over painting as she is because you just chill all up in there while she does it. I picture you staring blankly. I was worried that maybe you were too high from fumes to give a damn, but she advised that "This stuff is all legit toxin free!! Did you expect anything less from me?!". Just sayin, if you come out all buzzed looking, I'm blaming the paint.
Let's review your stats! You are 28 weeks baked today!! You are about 15 inches from your head to your heels. You weigh over 2 pounds now. You can blink your eyes!!! You have a little eyesight now too and you can most likely see light outside your Mom. This could explain why you keep blasting your foot out into her tummy, though I choose to believe you're practicing your corner kick for soccer! (don't tell your Uncle A) You are getting eyelashes now. Grow them nice and long so I can give you butterfly kisses when you're older, okay?
When it's time for your next blog, I will be with you! It will be Thanksgiving and you need to be prepared to take on a LOT of food. I have seen your Mother eat and it's all very Discovery Channel. Look down. See that? It's your belly. And it's going to have a lot of turkey in it. Whenever you're ready for pie, grab that cord and tug. I'm sure she'll oblige.
I can't wait to see you!!! Until then, Get Big. Get Big. Get Big.
Eat you up I love you so xoxo
