39 weeks

39 Weeks..... I'm sitting here in shock! I can't believe our little girl could be here any day. I'm looking at her empty swing and bassinet and dreaming of what she will look like in them. I'm wondering if she will look more like me or her daddy. I'm wondering what life is going to be like with a baby! are we still going to be able to sit here on the couch watching what we wanna watch? probably for a little while. I'm enjoying every single kick and turn and jump I'm feeling. I'm soaking in every last pregnant thing I can! I have to share her pretty soon and although most days I am ready for her to be here, there are some days where I don't wanna share her, I don't want her to have to live in this scary world, I want her to stay safe and warm in my belly. there are so many things running through my mind... I think we are ready, but how do you really know? are you ever READY? I have been doing laundry like a crazy person, but all her clothes are clean, blankets are washed and put away. I have our hospital bag packed. Car seat is installed. I think we are READY! I have been running up and down the stairs in hopes she will come!
It has been pretty stormy the last few days, and I've heard storms bring babies, and I'm still waiting to feel something, ANYTHING. I have only had a few Braxton hicks. I have been feeling fine, HUGE, but fine. Some nights I sleep SO GOOD, other nights I barely get any sleep! I am pretty uncomfortable, but I'm sure it would be worse.

 

in other non baby news, we have started to finish our back yard! We have our fence up, we got cement done on Friday, and all I have to say is THANK GOODNESS for good neighbors! Our neighbor Mitch has done pretty much everything in our back yard! I love living next to people that are so friendly and so helpful and so much fun to hang out with! They also SPOIL this little lady! I can't even count how many outfits and gifts they have given us in the last 9 months!
