Looking Back and Growing Up!

Just for fun I popped over to Baby Center to see what they have to say about a 29 week baby (how old Greyson was when he was born) and it was kind of shocking. I never made it to look at this page because I was in the hospital at 27 weeks and had the s-l-o-w-e-s-t computer while on bed rest. I thought it was interesting that my beautiful wiggly son, who is right now sitting on my lap was once the size of a butternut squash! Ha!

Your pregnancy: 29 weeks

How your baby's growing:

Your baby now weighs about 2 1/2 pounds (like a butternut squash) and is a tad over 15 inches long from head to heel.

Well, he was way more than 2.5 pounds (thank goodness!) so a bit heavier than a squash, but he was just 15 inches long. So he was short and sturdy even then. Greyson has ALWAYS had very powerful legs, he was a kicker in the womb and even after wards. (This is one of my favorite videos of him. Just watch that leg!)
He loves to stand and everyone comments on his "toned" legs. Well those legs just had a growth spurt! Suddenly they don't look so short and powerful, now they look long and strong! I swear overnight my little guy grew. Now he can get his toes up to his mouth, which he loves.

He is also this close to crawling! Right now he scoots. Today I set him on the kitchen floor while I made breakfast and before I knew it he had scooted across the room and started banging on the cabinets! How is this even possible?!

I had to stop him because he was trying to put the keyboard in his mouth!
