36 Weeks
Monday, August 11th, 2008
Today is 36 weeks! Pretty exciting. We are getting down to the nitty gritty now. We waited a bit long to hire a doula, but we still have a few options. We are setting up meetings with them now. Aside from that, I am pretty sure we are ready. We at least have all the “stuff”, and what a lot of stuff it is! I realize we didn’t have to get it all before the baby comes, but it just seemed easier to have it off my mind and to be able to not leave the house for the next 2 months, if thats what fancied me.
Things to do this week (baby related):
Pack my bags, make sure the car seat fits in the car, take professional pregnancy photos, finish doing baby laundry, hang decorative robots
According to Baby Center…
“Your baby is still packing on the pounds — at the rate of about an ounce a day. He now weighs almost 6 pounds (like a crenshaw melon) and is more than 18 1/2 inches long. He’s shedding most of the downy covering of hair that covered his body as well as the vernix caseosa, the waxy substance that covered and protected his skin during his nine-month amniotic bath. Your baby swallows both of these substances, along with other secretions, resulting in a blackish mixture, called meconium, will form the contents of his first bowel movement.
At the end of this week, your baby will be considered full-term.” Yay!

Post Dinner

The restaurant printed up a couple menus just for us…
The meal was delicious, and I somehow found room for 3 courses and glass of Navarro Vineyards Gewürztraminer grape juice.

I just saw these online today. I think I might have to make them. The light is cute, but I think they are also adorable without the choking hazard. (Can you tell I’ve been taking baby care classes?)
The Creamery

On Thursday my aunt and uncle visited us. We went to Bi-Rite Creamery and had some of their delicious ice cream. It is mostly organic and freshly made on premises. I had one scoop each of Salted Caramel and Honey Lavender.

Apple Blossom
Monday, July 14th, 2008
The baby room is being painted today! Whee! I didn’t think the painters were going to be able to come until next week, which would be after the baby shower. I was hoping they could do it today, but I hadn’t heard back. This morning at 9:30 they called and said they could be here in 45 minutes, if I wanted. So I took the fastest shower ever, and ran down to the paint store and picked up a gallon of Aura Eggshell in Apple Blossom (light green).
Oh, and today is 32 weeks!
