Almost 8 months



On Wednesday we'll officially hit 31 weeks. Almost eight months down, nine weeks to go.* It's hard to believe I'll get nine weeks' worth of bigger...yikes.

*Some clarification: Apparently, a full-term pregnancy is measured at 40 weeks, which sounds like 10 months but is really still closer to 9 months because most months have closer to 4.33 weeks in them. That's why you hear everyone talking in weeks instead of months, usually, so as not to confuse people. But I know I'm confused just thinking about it. Here's a link to a site that offers some explanation and related math: http://www.babiesonline.com/articles/pregnancy/a10monthpregnancy.asp. Bottom line that I saw somewhere in all of the explanations: Your baby will arrive when he or she is ready.

On an unrelated note, here's a picture of Zeeb doing her "Cat from Outer Space" impersonation:
