Week 21: Pom Poms

Sprout is as big as a pomegranate this week! That fruit is delicious, but really annoying to eat. Those seeds are small and they stain - not even OxyClean can fix that.
  • Sprout's digestive system preps for the outside world; she's manufacturing meconium — the tarry black substance Mom and Dad will find in the first dirty diaper (EW)
  • She's already got a lifetime's supply of eggs in her womb—about six million of them; Dad is preparing his gun collection and steely-eyed gaze for the "dating years"

Mom and Sprout: 21 weeks
Mom celebrated her 31st birthday this week, and everyone went out for a hibachi dinner. Hadley LOVED all the fire (yikes) and Sprout enjoyed all the food that Mom ate. Like, all night she enjoyed it. She kicked and spun for about 2 hours, starting at 1:00am. Cool it, kid. Mom likes sleep. 

HIBACHI! FIRE! FUN!
Mom and Dad also took Hadley and Sprout to Tampa to the Buddhist Temple and Thai market. It is a great little day adventure and the food is incredible. Hadley had more fun playing with rocks than in the meditation garden (no surprise there), but she also enjoyed eating the mango with coconut milk. 


 Finally, Mom enjoyed some time outside at work this week with her co-workers. It is such a treat to work in such a beautiful location. Come to Florida, everyone! It is lovely this time of year :)
