He can blink his eyes, which now sport lashes. With his eyesight developing, he may be able to see the light that filters in through the womb.

Best Moment this Week
Sunday was Josh's birthday, & we got to go to our old church in Midland since we were there for the weekend. On the ride home, Elliot was unexpectedly content (after a few recent longer car rides that were not so pleasant) & Josh & I were able to have a lot of good conversation. It was just all in all a good day together!

Gender
BOY! Jack Wesley.

Movement
Jack, over the past month or so, has moved up (can't remember if I have mentioned that or not yet), I believe much higher than Elliot ever hung out. It's getting harder to breathe, & I almost have to sit up completely to be (slightly) comfortable. I can tell when he moves lower too - it's like this weird sinking feeling & all of a sudden I have more space for my lungs & stomach.

Food Craving
I got my desired Oscar's Super Burrito this weekend - yum! Also had Rosa's for the third time in a week. :) (Gotta get my fill while I can!) Now, I want a burger. Gotta make that happen soon...

Sleep
I am EXHAUSTED when I wake up. It's SO hard to get out of bed. I still sleep pretty hard when I'm out, so that's good. But it just doesn't seem to be enough.

What I am looking forward to
The past couple of days, I have just wanted Jack to be here already! So, there's that. We are picking up the bunk bed this weekend so we'll hopefully get going more on Elliot's room.

Symptoms
Fatigue, shortness of breath, back pain (now sometimes not just when I sit or lay down, but when I'm walking around - I believe it's my slipped disk acting up, I remember it from last time too)

Love it, the developments of course. Hang in there mama. Praying for sweet rest and a super happy Elliot to be sweet to his mamma.
