25 weeks!!!

We have made it to 25 weeks!! I thank Father everyday that our son stays in my womb, because it is another day of vital development. He is such an active little boy, he has started kicking so hard it moves my whole belly! Jeff and I talk to him everyday and it so sweet when he kicks back. I'm sure he is just wanting the loud noise to stop, but I like to think he knows how much we love him. I cannot wait to see his little face! Tomorrow is my outing to the OB's office. I look forward to Tuesdays now because I get to leave my bedroom and get fresh air! Jeff usually picks up something for dinner and we have a little date in the car on the way home.

We have been busy at the Morton house the past few days. When I say "we" I really mean my husband has been busy and I have been in the bed watching him work. This weekend Jeff and my father-in-law worked on our attic. This is exciting for me because now we have most of our stuff moved out of the nursery and Jeff can start decorating! Yes, I did say Jeff would be decorating, but I will be directing from another room :) I have shown him enough Pintrest pictures that he could probably decorate nursery's for a living now. I am so blessed with such an amazing husband! We have decided to go with trains for the nursery! I bought some really cute bedding from the Pottery Barn that has little trains hand sown in. Also, when Jeff was little he had a train track around the top of his room and his parents ran the train for him at night when he was going to sleep. Jeff is going to build a track around the top of the nursery and we are going to use the same train he had as a little boy. I am excited to see how it will all come together! 

Before I go I will share some development fact for 25 weeks!

• Tripp should be around 9 inches long by today!
• His capillaries are forming under the skin and filling with blood.
• He is forming air sacs in his lungs.
• His nostrils that have been closed, but will begin to open this week which allows him to take practice breaths.
• His vocal cords are functioning now and he should begin to have hiccups soon. 

I love to see how something God has created is developing with so much detail! It just amazes me that God can take cells and turn them into a human. He is such a mighty God! To Him be the glory!
