We're in the home stretch!

Yesterday I started my  39th week of pregnancy.  I can't believe we've come this far already.  That last 2 months have just flown by.  We are soooooo ready for this baby it's unbelievable.  The last few weeks we really started to get anxious about meeting out little one.  The suspense of a boy or girl is just killing us now.  We are believing that labor will start Monday so we will have time to get home to have Christmas with our family.



The next picture you will see is of our little one.  I can't wait.

Here's a list of things I can't wait to do after giving birth:

1. Sleep on my right side without pain.
2. Lay on my stomach.
3. Put my socks and shoes on without struggling to reach my feet.
4. No more swollen ankles or feet (or hobbit feet as I call them).
5. Driving without being uncomfortable.
6. No more itchy belly.
7. No more jabs to my bladder.
8. The constant feeling I have to go to the bathroom (getting more intense the last few days).
9. Carrying things on my hip - like a laundry basket. (I currently don't have one)
10. Working out.

Most of all I can't wait to hold our little one and share the joy of officially becoming parents with my loving husband.  Let the journey begin.
