Full - Term!


37 Weeks, finally full-term! We are getting close. Soon the Dr. will be checking for signs of labor! The baby should be a bit over 6 lbs and just working on fattening up and getting ready for it's birthday! The idea of it is kinda scary now that I can see the finish line, however, I am ready to be able to move through smaller spaces. Tonight I was helping Matt figure out how to organize the garage and I couldn't fit in-between two objects, which Matt found hilarious. As for the baby it is still very active! It's sleep time seems to be slim to none, I think he/she is going to keep me and Matt very busy.

Baby Narin's Room




We are almost there and thanks to all of you Baby Narin's room is full of fluff and spunk! The bedding looks great and all of the draws are full. Matt and I are very grateful for everything that has been given to us to bring Baby Narin into a loving and comfortable environment. Now we just have to wait and find out if there is a little Misses or Mr, so we can personalize the room.

32 Weeks! We are both counting down! Tonight we started our Childbirth classes through the local hospital. It is nice to be around other pregnant couples and learn about the birth together rather than just reading some books here and there.


As well, I grow bigger with each day and it get's more and more difficult to bend down, put on socks, get up.....etc. It is hard to imagine getting much larger but I am pretty sure I am heading there.
Copper has adopted Baby Narin's room since we finished it. I guess he and the baby can nap together ; ) Henry still doesn't seem to notice anything different, but I think he will do well. He has really calmed down (for Henry) and listens a bit more. I suppose only time will tell....53 days.....

We are 31 weeks now and the baby is about 4lbs and 17 inches long. During my last visit to the Dr. I was told the baby was as long as my full torso, so I should be expecting a lot of outward growing! Baby Narin's eyebrows and eyelashes should be done growing and lungs and digestive track are almost mature. From here on out the baby gains about a 1/2lb each week.

Every night around 10:30-11:30 there is a party in my belly. It is really fun to watch my stomach bounce around and change shape, it's a wild experience, although I don't know if my organs would agree.! Only 9 more weeks and the party is going to join us on the outside!

This is definitely me! However, we are getting some nesting done. Matt and Andy built the crib today so we have all of the furniture in the room! The more we add the more real the idea becomes. When it is finished I will post a pic of the room.
