Full. Term. Wow. {37 weeks!}

We have had a very busy week since our last blog post. If you missed our last post it was the nursery reveal {finally}! I feel like I need to mention that no, her name is not Audrey and honestly I didn't even THINK about the correlation between the "A" on the wall and the Audrey Hepburn picture. Haha. I just really love Audrey Hepburn and thought it was a good place to hang her.

On Friday, our friend Anna came to visit us for the weekend. It was really nice to see her and spend time with her. The best part was that she was here in time for a baby shower that our friends Scott and Helene threw for us on Saturday! We have been really blessed this month and Bean has been given so much love, it's incredible. I can't even explain. {Thank you so much for such a wonderful baby shower Scott, Helene, Alyson, Bill, Kim, Larry, and Anna!}

Thank you for visiting us Anna! <3

On Tuesday, we went on a tour through the maternity ward. If it didn't feel real before, it sure does now. Haha. We got to see where we check in and what the delivery rooms look like and the postpartum rooms look like. It was really nice actually. The rooms were a nice size and they have a pull out couch for Brad to sleep on. Tomorrow we have an Infant Care class and Saturday we have an all day Childbirth class. Fun stuff! :)

This week I hit 37 weeks, which is technically "full term". Anything before 37 weeks is "pre-term". Between 37-40 weeks is "full term". And 40-42 weeks is "post-term". Basically I think it means that she can make her arrival any day now. But she can't because we had a pep-talk and I told her she has to stay in there until February 19th, at least. ;)

From weeks 37-40 the baby is the size of a watermelon! As you can tell in my belly picture. Haha.
From BabyCenter.com:
Your baby is now considered "full term," even though your due date is three weeks away. If you go into labor now, her lungs will likely be mature enough to fully adjust to life outside the womb.
Your baby weighs 6 1/3 pounds and measures a bit over 19 inches, head to heel. Many babies have a full head of hair at birth, with locks from 1/2 inch to 1 1/2 inches long. But don't be surprised if your baby's hair isn't the same color as yours. Dark-haired couples are sometimes thrown for a loop when their children come out as blonds or redheads, and fair-haired couples have been surprised by Elvis look-alikes. And then, of course, some babies sport only peach fuzz.

We got back our maternity photos that our friend Ali did for us two weeks ago. I am totally enamored with them. She did such an amazing job and I am so glad that we have these special pictures taken by one of our friends to remember this amazing moment in our life. <3

Here are some of my favorites. :)

Next week we will be reporting on our classes we are taking this weekend and our OB appointment that we have next week.
Until then...

<3 Brad, Jenna, and Bean
