35 1/2 weeks

So I had a doctors appointment yesterday and the doctor has said that everything is going great. He doesn't feel that the baby should be here any earlier than 3 weeks and that is good. I have plenty to do. I am already dilating and so yay my body says that it doesn't plan on being pregnant forever, although at times it can feel that way. Yet it feels way close. I am amazed that soon I will be able to hold this baby boy in my arms and watch my sweet little girl be a big sister. Our next door neighbor had a baby 2 months ago and she loves to help with the baby and wants to hold him. It definitely tells me that I will have to keep an eye on her, yet I know she will be so sweet with her baby brother. My husband is getting the nursery all painted and put together. It will be great once he is done so that I can get everything put away, ready, and organized. I am a little antsy, some have called it nesting. So for now everything is great and good. I am progressing and this little man moves like an acrobat and never lets his mom worry whether he is there or not. I am grateful for the many blessings in my life and for a wonderful group of supportive family and friends. I am grateful for my husband and how helpful he has been this pregnancy. He is so patient and kind and good with hormonal me and our busy toddler. How lucky can a girl be. To him, I promise that when I no longer have a kid kicking my stomach I will be a better wife. Luckily that should be the case in around a month. I love you.

7 weeks to go

So this morning I went to my doctors appointment and everything looks good. For the first time I actually had questions and the doctor answered and relieved any concerns that I had. Not really a lot this time around, since as long as I feel this baby boy moving I know that things are going fine. Even though I know that this baby boy will most likely not be here for at least 7 weeks. Even though I know that there is a possibly that he could be early and I have certainly joked and sometimes prayed for it. When the doctor said that I could go into labor in 3-6 weeks it all the sudden clicked. He is coming and he is going to be here soon and I still need to get his bed set up. So I told my husband that we have to get his done now. Which I think lighted a little spark on his end too. Not that we have been doing nothing, yet we have been moving at a pace that says this baby wont be here until April. However if he should come before that, (which I have learned that they do have minds of their own and may decide to be early sometimes) it would be good, even preferable for him to have a place for him to sleep. However this is an easy fix it just means that we have to get a mattresses which would take only an hour at the most. However the most preferable solution would be to find storage for the boxes at the end of the bed (that used to be in a spare bedroom no longer spare) and then we can set up the bassinet. I am sure that we will have it figured out by this weekend how thing will fall in place. It just takes some creative organizational skills which I will pray to be blessed with.
