37 Weeks - Full Term!

Laim has to check his emails, and do some online banking so its not backed up when he arrives.

I am now 37 weeks, which means Full Term! So baby can come out at any time and be fully developed. He is suppose to be around 6 1/2 lbs, open his eyes when he's awake, practice breathing, and turns his head towards sounds. Its really an interesting concept to think that he knows matt's and my voice, and the only communication that is two-way is "feeling" eachother. I can feel Liam when he moves and he can feel us when we rub my belly.

At my 37 week doctor appt, baby heart rate was 140-which is good, am negative for strep B, and the "door" is still close. Next appt is Tuesday!


My mom was sick last weekend so she couldn't make it with the painting crew to paint the nursery, so this week I've been stenciling some Baby Winnie the Pooh characters on the walls. Painting them isn't done yet, but as soon as it is, I will post a billion pictures of the nursery. Here is a sneak peek of whats done so far.


Below is the cutest giraffe stuffed animal I have ever seen, I had to get it. He plays slow lullaby while his neck rocks slowing back and forth, makes me sleepy. Hopefully it will have that effect on Liam too. I used a gift card that I received from my grandma for the baby shower. Thanks grandma!

Below giraffe is all the flannel recieving blankies (wash, rolled and ready to go!) that I also recieved at the baby shower from Kara and Auntie Tanya, thanks guys!
Update on me - I can no longer put socks on, or shoes, or tie my shoes so Matt gets to do all that. I think there is the beginning of a strech mark on my belly ( Nooooo! ) so I've been useing stretch mark lotion non stop. Still feeling pressure on my pelvic bone from Liam and his foot keeps sticking out of my right side. Sleeping lots, and crave anything with Nutella spread on it. mmmmm.




I couldn't pass up this Christmas green and red yarn at the store. Its soo soft and makes me want Christmas to get here! I'm makin a blanky out of it.
