Our first worry

Oh Peanut...this morning was our first minor scare that you were headed our way a little earlier than expected! But thankfully, we were able to get into the doctor right away and reassured that everything I was experiencing was normal and that you were still perfectly protected and not ready to make your debut :) So happy about that!

We did schedule our next ultrasound for two weeks for today. That's where we'll find out how big you are and what everything looks like to prep for your arrival. Hopefully you're still in about the 60th percentile for growth so we can let you come in your own sweet time and don't have to worry about induction or c-sections.

Daddy and I are taking Childbirth classes, we had one on Monday night and are headed back to the hospital the next two Mondays for more education about preparing and caring for you when you arrive.

There is still so much to do before you get here! It's overwhelming at times. Daddy and I are focused on making sure all the necessities needed for your arrival are in place. Hopefully early next week we'll have your car seat checked and in place! And then there is all of this other stuff like making sure mommy's office is clean at work and everything is in place before she leaves and completing the insurance paperwork so we're not broke when I'm off :) But I know it will all get taken care of and if it doesn't it wasn't that important!

Daddy has been reading to you every night. I love it and I'm pretty sure you're enjoying the sound of his voice. He really wants you to get here so he can show you all the neat pop up books and touch and feel books you have! But for now, he's settling for reading. So far, Barnyard Dance is your favorite I think, with the Sesame Street Nighty Nighty book a close second....not sure if you were just sleeping already or if green eggs and ham didn't sound appetizing to you :)

Keep dancing away baby, we can't wait to meet you, but after this morning, I'll be patient and wait six more weeks.

Love and kisses, mommy
