Guess who will be cozied up in this creation on Monday?

A BABY!!!!!!!!!

I had my almost 39 week appointment today, and this babe just keeps growin' and growin'. It's about 9 pounds right now, and the midwife suggested I get induced sooner rather than later...so, Monday it is! I AM HAVING A BABY ON MONDAY!!!! It's still not real to me, but I'm sure it will all sink in come Sunday night. I have a ton to do before now and then (anyone want to come scrub my floors and baseboards?), so maybe, just maybe, all of my labors will put me into labor before then. We shall see.

I picked up my quilt this morning from the lady who machine quilted it for me, and I'm in love. And even though the baby won't actually be wrapped up in it on Monday I was happy to see that it got done just in the nick of time and will be adorning the baby's room for it's arrival home. It makes for a happy room!

Only 4 days to go.....

That is so exciting!! I wouldn't be surprised if you go into labor before then but it is still nice to have an end date in sight! I can't wait to hear what you have and a name!! When does Preston get home again??? If I lived closer I really would come help you clean....
