We have finally hit the magical 36 weeks, full term, point of the pregnancy. Meaning Graham should be healthy and happy coming into the world from this point forward! Our doctor's appointment went well again this week. But, Graham seems to be plumping up at a fast rate. Last week he was measuring about 34 weeks, according to my belly height, and this week he was measuring about 37 weeks! Dr Lebel is estimating him to be 7 pounds right now. Most babies gain about .5 a pound a week during the last 4 weeks of pregnancy. Yes, that makes Graham have an estimated birth weight of around 9 pounds! YIKES! Of course all of this is a guess, but it makes me nervous none the less. Dr Lebel actually used the word "solid" to describe Graham. It looks like he may take after Dustin after all (who weighed 10 lbs 3 oz and was 23 inches long at birth).
We also have the nursery almost all finished! Jeanne finished the truck pictures (which we still need to hang) and Martha finished sewing the curtains/rocker cushions/crib skirt. All of these look better than I imagined! I included some pictures for everyone to see.
