Baby update: Amanda’s hitting 38 weeks, and Keanu seems eager to make his debut, throwing some punches already!

We had a new doula visit, prepped the car seat, got the car spick and span, and installed new wipers—yep, that's adulting!

Tomorrow's the big 38-week checkup—exciting stuff!

Highs for the week: Quality time together, just chilling with Christmas tunes in the background. Lows: Business tends to slow down a bit during the festive season.
