28 Weeks

As the Big Day nears, baby is getting ready to go towards the light at the end of the tunnel.

Baby's eyes are partially open now and can blink. Baby has begun having rapid eye movement. Her eyes have color now, too. It may not be the color she ultimately ends up with, especially if they're light gray or blue. The eyes typically don't settle on a final hue until nine months after baby is born.

Babe is downright chubby compared to a few weeks ago. She is about 15 inches long, about the length of an amusement park cinnamon-sugar-coated churro and weighs 2 to 3 pounds.

In more exciting news, Eric's parents were in town this weekend and his dad painted the nursery!!! It's so beautiful! I absolutely love it, it's bright and cheery and a happy place for little Emily.

Here's Grandpa Greg painting:


Here's a shot of the corner, you can tell the color a bit here:



And we're repainting all the trim, can you tell a difference? HAHA




Once we get things all situated I'll post more, but didn't want to keep everyone waiting for too long!
