32 weeks!

Only 3 days until Christmas! My parents will be arriving on the evening of December 23rd. Christmas Eve will be spent over at our house eating the traditional oyster stew and chili. Melissa's family will be in town as well and will join us over here for food and fellowship! Then, on Christmas Day, we will all gather over at Eric & Melissa's house for Christmas lunch. I am very much looking forward to hosting a big family event this year. Even though I know it will be a lot of work and I will be thoroughly exhausted, it will be so much fun! Thank you to Miss Blake Alexis for being in her 3rd trimester right now so we did not have to travel this year for the holidays! (Yes, I know that's a little selfish... but it's the small things!)

Blake Alexis Kirby Week 32 Update:

Your baby's the size of a squash! Still growing, your baby weighs in at about 2.5 to 3.8 pounds and measures about 15.2 to 16.7 inches. Ready or not, baby's getting ready to emerge. She's probably in the head-down position by now, with her bottom facing up. This is the comfiest way for her body to fit in your increasingly cramped womb and will make her eventual exit (only a few months away now!) much easier. (If she's still head-up, don't panic -- there's still time for a flip before birth.)
