38 Weeks!

Getting closer!! I haven't been feeling too hot these past couple days. I can't help but wonder if this means I'll be going into labor some time very soon.
Max, Justin's good friend, was in San Diego yesterday. He and Justin played disc golf once Justin got home from work and the three of us went to dinner at Seasons 52. It's been nice having all these visitors lately.

How our baby is growing:

Your baby has really plumped up. He weighs about 6.8 pounds and he is over 19 1/2 inches long (about the size of a leek). He has a firm grasp, which you'll soon be able to test when you hold his hand for the first time! His organs have matured and are ready for life outside the womb.
Wondering what color your baby's eyes will be? You may not be able to tell right away. If he's born with brown eyes, they'll likely stay brown. If he's born with steel gray or dark blue eyes, they may stay gray or blue or turn green, hazel, or brown by the time he's 9 months old. That's because a child's irises (the colored part of the eye) may gain more pigment in the months after he's born, but they usually won't get "lighter" or more blue. (Green, hazel, and brown eyes have more pigment than gray or blue eyes.)
