Week 37 Update

This morning we had an ultra sound to check in on Zachary.  He is estimated to be 6 lbs and 49% on pretty much every size test, even his leg bones which we were hoping would be extra long like his dad.

The pictures from this visit are not great because they are zoomed in so much, but we enjoyed watching Zach stick out his tongue (which you can almost see in this picture), drinking, using his lungs, punching me and many other moves.

He had so much hair flowing around she measured and it is 1.4 cm long.  The contractions continue for me and are getting more painful, especially by the end of the day. 

To end week 36 we had an amazing baby shower thrown by Allison and Kerri.

They had delicious food and animal decorations everywhere.

I was suppose to get a spa manicure the night before the shower to have pretty nails and because it would feel good right now.  But the spa cancelled on Allison and me the day of and no one else had openings.  So Austin being an amazing husband gave me a pedicure for 2.5 hours Saturday morning before the shower.  He even served me Dr. Pepper in a fancy glass.

It was the best pedicure I have had, sitting in the sun with the fam, listening to the birds is much more enjoyable than being at a spa.  He even did a pretty good job on the painting portion, especially for his first attempt.

How fun that they can tell he has hair!
Austin, if your civil engineering doesn't work out, I see a good future for you in the pedicure business! It looks awesome!
