This week, your baby measures over 16 inches long. He weighs about 3.3 pounds (try carrying four navel oranges) and is heading into a growth spurt. He can turn his head from side to side, and his arms, legs, and body are beginning to plump out as needed fat accumulates underneath his skin. He's probably moving a lot, too, so you may have trouble sleeping because your baby's kicks and somersaults keep you up (UM YES!). Take comfort: All this moving is a sign that your baby is active and healthy.
And here is a recent photo of BIP:
Let's see what else....oh, recent Brock-isms:
One Sunday morning I was getting ready for church when Brock picked up the brush, turned to me and said, "Mama, your hair is funky!" He then proceeded to brush my hair. Yes, true story.
He loves to yell, "HOT TAMALES!" when we get in the car. Yes, it is hot outside and even more hot in the car, but I must stop teaching my son these nerdy sayings.
And....he was excited to call me at work yesterday to tell me he earned the right to wear big boy underwear. I will spare you the details, but he is quite proud!

I said "Hot Tamales" in the car the other day too! Where did we get that from? ; )
