FINALLY!!!!

Until further notice....

I will not blog again until I can include a picture of my son...

39 weeks tomorrow and I cannot think of anything to write. I'm tired and ready to get this show on the road!!!

:-) and for those of you who kept up with the "what size of fruit is he now" weeks/ months, I have one word for you...

WATERMELON!!!!!

Ugh...

Still pregnant...............



(my patience is wearing thin)

Pros and Cons

Week 37 = Full Term

Pros

* We are almost there!!!
* Showers, cute clothes, etc.
* He is fine to come at anytime!!! (Did you hear that Charlie??? ANYTIME)
* I am so excited I can hardly stand it!!!
* I can't wait to watch Jeff. He is going to be a GREAT dad!

Cons
* Feet in ribs...which may be causing internal bruising:-)
* Very little sleep...SO UNCOMFORTABLE

* Possibility of still having 3 weeks left...AH! (patience is a virtue, right?)
* Even my "maternity" (aka fat clothes) are getting snug...ugg!
* Labor is right around the corner. <-- pro & con

It feels like 37 weeks have taken an eternity, but what an answer to prayer that he has made it healthily to this point! I know I sound like a broken record but....I am so excited!!!!

35 down....

...5 (oh my can I make it?) more weeks to go!

We are SO SO excited!! I find myself just standing in Charlie's room looking in his bed or at his teeny tiny clothes and imagining what he will look and be like. The wait is almost over! One more month! 36 days...if you're counting :-)

HB MOM
