{Week 25}

Week 25

Crumb-catcher

Maternity sewing projects

After long years... a final convert (due more to excellent vitamins than to a fervent appreciation. But it's growing on me...)

Week 25: the best of belly weeks... it was comfortable, workable and becoming. It was also a quiet week, as Baby F. conserved energy during those peaceful days for the growth spurt that signalled the end of week 25 and the temporary end of any grace that I ever thought to possess. *insert "Elephant March" here* (although others, less critical than myself, still assert that there are vestiges of it left)

Now Little is back to bumping and flipping, at times tap-dancing on the right side... his/her side of choice! And the doppler on my belly today reassured us yet again, that within beats the most beautiful little heart that ever was.

Events of the Week:

~ first at-home check up from Birgit the Midwife
~ a visit from the Dutch grandparents
~ toes that are no longer visible
~ the beginning of German class & hopefully Baby's osmosis thereof
~ the end of coat-buttoning (with blouses being a long-gone
impossibility!)
~ Baby's first (albeit prenatal) museum visit
