The countdown begins. . .

Well, our little chublet is pushing 7 lbs this week. My doctor continues to believe that she will be early, just not sure when. (Since she is my daughter, I can’t imagine the thought would even cross her mind to be late : ) We’re ready for her, as ready as you can be, so early is OK with me. However, I must say, it would be nice to have more of a ballpark idea as to when she might come out. With every sudden move or contraction I wonder, “is this it?” “could she be coming this early?” Last night the little one was all worked up after her storytime and was using her foot to push into my rib and burrow her head farther down as if she was trying to get out. I for one did not really appreciate the sensation but felt bad for her if she was in fact trying to get out. My body has more prep work to do. As of Tuesday I am 50% effaced, but have not started dilating yet. She has not dropped yet, so I am guessing we still have a while to go. I am tying up all my loose ends and starting on Wed 13th planning on staying close to home, feet up and bags packed in the car. Just keeping my fingers crossed that we can make it to the 20th—after 9pm so mom can be there!

The calm before the storm

Wow... we are 34 weeks in. 6 to go, plus or minus one.

The time is really flying by. We are slowly getting the house in order, and just have a few more things to do to the nursery.

Here are a few snaps:

The crib.

The kitty shoes that Sharon loves.

Sharon & Clyde.

The start of Melina's college fund (the pink pig).
