Week 39: A watermelon!? Oh for the love of Pete

Bean is the size of a watermelon this week. A WATERMELON. That is a large fruit that should never be associated with the size of anything in anyone's body. (Mom told me to write this. I have no idea what's she carrying on about).  Anyway, Bean is fully grown and totally developed at this point. She weighs somewhere between 6-7 pounds, we think, and over the next week she'll just get bigger. Mom and Dad have a doctor's appointment on Wednesday (Bean's actual due date) to have an ultrasound to check in on the baby. At that point, if she hasn't arrived yet, they'll talk about options for helping her along a bit. Mom and Dad are both very OK with any and all options to get her out at this point.


This week we celebrated Thanksgiving with both sides of the family, which was so much fun! Mom and Dad did their annual Turkey Trot 5k the morning of Thanksgiving. Mom waddled about 2 miles of it, but Dad ran the whole race and finished in 24 minutes!! He's super fast! They had a great day with family, and the Trot was an awesome and healthy way to start the holiday.
