My body: I measured my belly again and I am now 15.5 inches rounder than my pre-pregnancy waist...Hard to believe, isn't it? I am really starting to feel the effects of the weight gain when I go on walks or are particularly active. My weight is still on track and only a few more weeks until I (hopefully) stop gaining. I have read that at around 36 weeks, many women reach their top weight gain. I am still happy to do it for my little angel!The baby
Weight: 3.5 pounds (what a chunker)
Length: 16 inches
Interesting fact: Baby can turn his head from side to side, and his arms, legs, and body are beginning to plump out as needed fat accumulates underneath his skin. The baby’s lungs and digestive track are almost fully mature at this point..yeah for baby!
What’s going on with us: We had a very busy, but very good weekend. On Saturday, my little sister graduated from U of L with her bachelor degree! Congrats Abby, we are so proud of you! On Sunday, we split our day between Jonathan’s mom and my mom. We had his family over at noon for an early dinner and had a very nice time. After Jonathan’s family left, we went to my mom’s to celebrate with most of the extended family on my side. I even got several Mother's Day cards, which was a very nice surprise. All in all, a very nice day full of people we love. In basement news, the carpet is scheduled to be installed on May 18th, which I am really excited about. I am off work for Election Day, so it should work out very well. After the carpet gets installed, our next move will be to bring the office furniture down and put the crib together…and THEN it will FINALLY start to look like a nursery!
