Okay, really ready... NOW

Okay everyone, I am sooo-ooo ready for this (I think). I just got the last energy burst (I think) and cleaned out 2 closets. 5 pair of shoes are off to Goodwill along with 5 of Paul's old coats. Paul and I are going to Woodman's for grocery shopping tonight because I am very worried about our cereal quantities. I have definitely dropped and have experienced lots of pressure and weird contractions, especially today.

I'd like to apologize in advance for not being a better hostess when people stop by to visit after mini is born. I have a feeling that I am going to be a bit out of sorts but I have no idea how this is all going to work.

Amee - Thanks for the encouraging words this evening. It was great talking with you. Mel - Thanks for the phone call today and for setting up the family baby pool!! Julie - I am hoping that you're right about the July 14th date. I am doing A LOT of walking right now and eating spicy foods!

All ready for Baby...



Here's the baby's room and me 9 months pregnant! Then the next one is out in our backyard under our trellis.
Have I dropped?? Maybe a little bit. The Doctor's appt last Friday (6/29) says that things are progressing as they are supposed to and I'm getting closer. I have been cleaning the house like crazy (nesting???) - even cleaning light fixtures and all the fans (aka: "Sheilas"). Paul's helping too - the last few things have been done: diaper Genie setup and the curtain rod being installed and curtains hung. We *feel* like we're ready... but who knows when she'll decide to make her arrival? The official due date is July 23rd, but I'm ready now (I think). I am very excited an a tad bit nervous. How are we going to do at all of this?
