Discovering Soho...

Hi guys! Yesterday I entered my 6th month! It was day number 154. Today I am 22 weeks, I have 125 days or 18 weeks left, and I am 55.4% of the way there. Yesterday it was the first time my dad actually felt my kicking inside my mom’s belly!

At 11 inches (the length of a spaghetti squash) and almost 1 pound, I am starting to look like a miniature newborn. My lips, eyelids, and eyebrows are becoming more distinct, and I am even developing tiny tooth buds beneath my gums. My eyes have formed, but my irises (the colored part of the eye) still lack pigment. If you could see inside your womb, you'd be able to spot the fine hair (lanugo) that covers my body and the deep wrinkles on my skin, which I will sport until I add a padding of fat to fill them in. Inside my belly, my pancreas — essential for the production of some important hormones — is developing steadily.

But this may be not really interesting for you at this point. What I really want to share is that I am in London! Yeeeah!

My mom and dad took me to a vacation! I am so exited! So far I am enjoying so much, that I forget to eat, sleep or kick my mom’s belly! In the evening we were all so tired of sightseeing Soho that we went in bed in 7 pm local time! We are staying at Court-House hotel in the heart of Soho.

Today we will continue with the exciting sightseeing and discovering Soho and London. I just hope that we won’t be disturbed with hail (frozen rain) again, like yesterday.
