Big Boy Chase

Chase getting ready to go for a ride on his big boy bike...no training wheels! He's so excited! (I'm just realizing from this picture that I might have his helmet on backwards, oops!) He actually can go pretty far by himself, he just needs a little help getting started.

And Chase now officially makes poop on the big potty all by himself, he even did it at school today (you can imagine what his bottoms looked like when he got home since he doesn't quite know how to wipe yet, ha)!

So many accomplishments in one week, he's growing up so fast!
Today I made 34 weeks pregnant, only about a month to go! Here's what's happening with baby:
Your baby now weighs about 4 3/4 pounds (like your average cantaloupe) and is almost 18 inches long. Her fat layers — which will help regulate her body temperature once she's born — are filling her out, making her rounder. Her skin is also smoother than ever. Her central nervous system is maturing and her lungs are continuing to mature as well.

By this week, fatigue has probably set in again, though maybe not with the same coma-like intensity of your first trimester. Your tiredness is perfectly understandable, given the physical strain you're under and the restless nights of frequent pee breaks and tossing and turning, while trying to get comfortable. Now's the time to slow down and save up your energy for labor day (and beyond). If you've been sitting or lying down for a long time, don't jump up too quickly. Blood can pool in your feet and legs, causing a temporary drop in your blood pressure when you get up that can make you feel dizzy.
