Baby Belly - 39 Weeks

Still the size of a watermelon - Baby's brain is still developing rapidly, and her skin has taken on a paler shade thanks to a thicker layer of fat around the blood vessels. (Don't worry, she'll change color again after birth). Avery is now able to flex her limbs and her nails might extend past her fingertips.

Avery and I promised Travis we wouldn't go into labor today b/c he has a hearing he can't miss, but all bets are off tomorrow!

And one side note - they are not kidding when they call it a bun in the oven. This oven is baking! Yesterday when we took Remi on a walk I stripped down to a t-shirt b/c I was so hot. Travis however was in a jacket and beanie and still commented on how cold it was. 40 degrees is the new 80 degrees to my body!
