36 wks

Your baby, almost 6 pounds and still packing on the pounds at a rate of about an ounce a day, is comparable to a crenshaw melon in size. (Length: more than 18 1/2 inches, head to heel.)

At the end of this week, your baby will be considered full-term. (Full-term is 37 to 42 weeks; babies born before 37 weeks are pre-term and those born after 42 are post-term.)

our baby is already head down and getting ready. could be any day now, but we are hoping at least 2 wks. we just got some bad news about our closets not being done until end of january. another few weeks of getting dressed in the dining room. it would be easier if i could sit on the bed and get dressed. it is getting pretty sad on how long it takes me to get my legs in my pants :)

feeling good. been trying to get things ready. but i know you just never feel ready ready. we are just getting so excited and can't wait to meet our new little guy. he is quite active and i think he already has an attitude. i called him my little buddy last night and he kicked me pretty hard. i guess he already doesn't like being called little :) poor guy is kind of stuck with asian and jewish genes. but who knows. he might have a chance.

we pulled out the car seat - just have to put it in the car or maybe even install it. that's a big step for us :)

haley is enjoying taking naps in her big girl bed. i think it will be a pretty easy and slow transaction. i think once her room is done she'll love it.

and the nursery just needs to get a bit organized. i got some little decals for his walls so it will be more 'manly' - little planes and clouds to match the stars. i just have to get them up. it's kind of hard to get too close to the wall :)
