The Nursery is DONE!

Now all we need is the baby...

Week 37 and 38

The Waiting Game

I am in true amazement that the past 9 months are coming to a close. Now, we are playing the waiting game. No progress yet towards labor and delivery. Dr. is predicting that I will go between my due date--March 10--and my probable induction date--March 17. I think I can hang on until then. But it is very exciting and unsettling to not know when this thing is going to happen. Unsettling because I am the type of person who loves to put appointments on my calendar and write to-do lists. To bring order to my life, I have decided that Friday, March 11 will be my last day at work (only 10 days left!!)...but I say this with the caveat that he may come earlier. The difficult part is I don't think he will. Don't get me wrong: there are many benefits to having him "cook" a bit longer (brain development, longer time on the job means more I can take more leave when I need it, more time before the craziness ensues, etc).

I'm just so excited to meet him already! I am even more excited for his daddy and our family. I have gotten to know him fairly well over the last couple months (I am convinced that he will be a night owl because he stirs a lot after 7 PM). So my next post will most likely be after he comes. (I love saying this...) MY LAST post till he comes!
