Week 36 1/2

We went to our now-weekly OB appointment today. We were very excited and anxious since we are getting so close and I, especially, have been on pins and needles. He looked incredible. It is amazing compared to just a month ago. He has managed to fatten up a bit (while I seem to be doing the opposite.) He is measuring a little small but so did Clara at this point. He is still growing where as Clara pretty much stopped at this point. The computer, which they say usually adds about a half a pound in weight, estimated him to be about 5 pounds 6 ounces. So, a little under 5 pounds right now. His abdomen is measuring small so I am going to the high-risk specialist on Thursday to be certain that he is getting adequate nutrition. So essentially, worst case scenario, he could come within the week. We are just ready to meet him.

Here are a few amazing pictures we got from today. He looks so much like Clara! They have the same forehead, nose, and chin. He has a little hair, too. It will be fun to compare the two when he does make his appearance!

Sweet little foot...

Completely smooshed...

Aren't you ready to find out his name? Well, keep waiting. We have finally figured out a first name but we are still completely clueless on a middle name. We keep waiting to be inspired but so far nothing.
