Com’on, Baby…we’re ready for you!

Feb. 3: Andrew is on day three of his no-napping game.  Hmmmm.  I don’t think I approve:)
Bryan’s mom came into town yesterday.  Her plane was able to land only after getting diverted to Iowa for more fuel since the runways were covered in snow and it had to circle for a while before getting cleared.
I had my week 39 midwife appointment on Friday.  We got to hear the baby’s heart beat and she measured my belly.  No signs of imminent labor, but I’m sending the baby lots of positive messages that the world is a friendly place and she should go ahead and check it out.  Please proceed to the exit, little one:)
We got together this morning for brunch with Andrew’s little friends Alex and Budgy and their parents, Vicki and Mike and Veronica and Benson.  It was a fun time.  This afternoon, we’re heading to Sarah and Wes’ house to watch the super bowl and eat yummy food.

How your baby’s growing:

Your baby’s waiting to greet the world! He continues to build a layer of fat to help control his body temperature after birth, but it’s likely he already measures about 20 inches and weighs a bit over 7 pounds, a mini watermelon. (Boys tend to be slightly heavier than girls.) The outer layers of his skin are sloughing off as new skin forms underneath.
