Pregnancy Diary: Any day now...

Hello everyone. :)
(38 weeks + 4 days)

We are actually THERE! We've almost clocked 39 weeks. Now i go to sleep each night wondering if I will get to wake Jeff up and tell him it's time to meet our baby!! 
I am one big contraction this week...one big waddling, mess of a contraction! Every few minutes I can see exactly where he stretches from bum to tiny feet. He is growing each day, which is great because up until recently I would look down and think to myself no way is there a full-size baby in there. At my 38 week checkup I had gained over 1.5 lbs in a week, making for a 23.5 weight gain altogether.
Jess and the kids came over today to lend me the all-important diaper genie and breast pump. There is nothing like preparing for a baby that reminds you how very blessed you are. By the time he arrives, we will have had 6 baby themed celebrations. SIX! On a recent Thursday night I received a phone call from Jeff's new boss asking me if I could make it to the club for a surprise for Jeff.  We walked into a surprise baby BBQ including cake, gifts and a money tree. To say the least, we are indeed grateful and have been overwhelmed by the excitement and kindness of our friends and family. He is one loved baby boy.

Nanny Rice hosted a huge friends and family shower in June. It was the baby shower of all baby showers and I can't wait to see the rest of the photos and tell more about it. 


His room is almost complete. I will share pictures soon. 
Love,
Linds
