It's been a busy week for Alan and I. We've had doctor appointments, baby classes and errands to run before the big arrival.
I had my 36 week ultrasound, the doctor said everything looked beautiful! The baby is expected to be in the 7.5 lbs range and that she is currently in the 50th percentile. We got one profile picture from this ultrasound that Alan and I really can't make out other than she is being a drama queen with her hand over forehead as we've seen before in other ultrasounds.
Saturday we took a tour of the hospital and we were able to see the labor and delivery room and the postpartum room. The L&D room is new and was BEAUTIFUL, but after the baby is born, I will get wheeled to the older part of the hospital where you get to spend 2 days in a newly remodeled closet! Okay, it's not really a closet, but it sure is a tiny, tiny room compared to the L&D room. I guess it'll be alright, we aren't expecting many guests anyway.
After we toured the hospital, we went to part 1 of 2 birthing classes. It was great for Alan and I to attend. He was able to learn all kinds of ways to help during this last part of my pregnancy and through labor and delivery. He took it all very well and I'm looking forward to experiencing this journey with him.
I think we have finally settled on a name...we'll see if it sticks after she is born. Anyway, I believe we are going to name her Faith Anne Johnson. We are still discussing the "e" in Anne, but we will probably go with it.
Hope all is well with you all! -T
