Week 33-Baby is the size of a PINEAPPLE!!!

We made it to week 33! Hard to believe I will be full term in just 4 weeks! We are getting even MORE excited to meet sweet Ellie as the days go by! Her room is almost completely finished and the nesting phase has begun! I find myself wanting to clean everything, but having the energy to clean nothing! Haha.

This past Saturday we had the Baby Shower for my family.  It was a great day filled with yummy food, good conversation and just an overall celebration of Ellie's upcoming arrival.  We also took an infant feeding and care class this past week.  We learned how to change a diaper (Josh did it under 7 seconds!), how to swaddle her, and all about breast feeding! It was fun!


This week, she weighs about 5.8 pounds and measures about 18.7 inches. And she may grow up to a full inch this week -- amazing. She is able to keep her eyes open while she's awake, she's begun to coordinate breathing while swallowing, and her bones have begun to harden!
