Single Digits

9 days (probably less) to go! That is so hard to believe! Everything is going great, I've had a little cramping but not enough to do anything. At my weekly appointment on Thursday, I was still 2 cm dilated. I was hoping to have made more progress. I was also hoping that the full moon that night would do something...so much for that! We even ate Mexican food and went for a long walk and I'm still here waiting on my Little Man. I can't wait to see what he looks like...well, we have some sort of idea what he looks like from our 4D ultrasound, but I'm excited to see what color hair he has and what his skin tone will be. For some reason, I'm picturing a blond curly haired blue eyed boy! We'll find out soon!

37 weeks 3 days Appointment

Today was another weekly appointment with my Midwife. I am a "good 2" cm dilated and 60-70% effaced. Not as much progress as I was hoping but that's still good. I was also down 3 pounds (don't know how!) so now I'm 1 pound over my beginning weight! I have another appointment next Thursday, May 27, at 11am.

My Sleeping Beauty

I went to check on Avaree a little while ago and I found her like this. She fell asleep reading before 9:00! I took these pictures mainly so I could show her what she looks like because the other night she asked me how I get her books from her when she's asleep without waking her up.Doesn't she look so sweet when she's sleeping?

Big Sister/Little Brother Shirts

I found some shirts for Avaree and Jace on Etsy that I loved but couldn't see paying $28 each for them. So I decided to try to make them, with some help from Mom! They turned out great and I can't wait for them to wear them.We also got these Carter's outfits for them!

37 Weeks = Full Term

We've made it! We're officially full term, so Jace, you can come whenever you're ready! Please don't make us wait too long! Will we have a May Baby or a June Baby?!?

We had a good weekend making last minute preparations for Jace's arrival. His car seat base is installed in the car. All his clothes are washed and put away. His room is complete and his bassinet is in our room. Batteries are in his swing and seat. Our bags are [almost] packed and ready to go!
