We are officially term today! Thirty-seven week fetuses love to practice inhaling, exhaling, sucking, gripping and blinking. They should be at least nineteen inches in length and six pounds in weight. I am very happy because as of seven AM this morning, I am officially finished with my hospital calls until after maternity leave. I am definitely ready for a break after spending the past four days IN A ROW on call and meeting more squishy faced babies than I wanted to. This week is busy, busy, though, as we get ready for Lisa's wedding and our family reunion next week. Hopefully NB can hang out on the inside until after our trip!
Thirty-seven weeks with NB
Thirty-seven weeks with Harper
We are still waiting on the toy basket to arrive! The shipment keeps getting pushed back. It is espresso wicker and resembles the hamper.
Can't wait to put his pictures in the frames!
I love all the space to add more books!
NB's dresser is also almost finished. We need to buy some newborn diapers to put in here. We will keep diapers, wipes, diaper pail bags, Desitin cream and little washcloths in this drawer. The washcloths came in handy with Harper during diaper changes to keep the changing pad clean and dry.
We have the extra mattress pad and NB's sleep sacs in the other top drawer.
I just love the Skubb Ikea drawer organizers! We used them with Harper too. We will use this drawer for pacifiers, socks, hats, onesies, little muslins, pack and play sheets and receiving blankets.
In this drawer we have crib sheets, blankets, the extra changing pad cover and bigger muslin blankets. Apparently I like blue.
We are starting off with significantly less clothing than with Harper. It is hard to find cute boy clothes!
Ethan's boppy pillow!
His bassinet is all ready to go!
We keep the extra sheets for the bassinet on the shelf under the crib skirt.
We have my diaper bag all set to go. The car seat, seat protector, sun shade, car organizer and mirror are also ready to be put into the car, but we are waiting until after the beach trip. We have the pack and play, the bouncy seat and our baby carriers down from the attic. The bottles and bottle warmer have been washed and are ready even though we won't need them until I go back to work. We only ordered Ethan one new infant towel. He will be using Harper's old pink and gray baby towels. We changed the guest room bathroom into a mermaid bathroom for Harper girl. Her big girl towels should be arriving next week while we are at the beach!
The bibs are all ready in the kitchen drawer.
The bathroom is now stocked with two humidifiers, a basket of baby bath products and the infant bath sponge. We did change the sponge from pink to blue!
New baby bath tub!
We updated the medicines and remedies in our baby medicine box.
We did get new fabric for the Bugaboo stroller. We went with a chevron gray color and will switch out the pink from Harper. Before we put the new gray gear on, we will change the stroller to directly attach to Ethan's infant car seat. Around six months when he can no longer use the infant seat, we can put the chair back on the stroller with the gray fabric. Instead of buying a new stroller for two, we got the scooter attachment for Harper. She loves it!! She can sit or stand on the attachment while we stroll the baby.
