It is really odd not to be rushing off to spend the day with preschoolers. Now I am spending the day with my animals and trying to figure out what project I want to tackle first.
We are about 18 days away from official arrival date of the little lady and I can honestly say I am ready now. Emotionally, physically, around the house we still have tons to do but she has somewhere to sleep, clothes to wear, bottles, a car seat, and diapers so we are sitting pretty well. :)
My Mom will be here in about a week and it will be nice to have someone here who can help us get a little more organized. And just be here. Yesterday I was having contractions and thought my water broke, which is scary when you are twenty minutes from your doctors office and alone. It turned out to be a false alarm but for the first time in 9 months my doctor actually commented on my blood pressure.
I have become a morning person which is a little weird for me but it is nice to get up and get going and get stuff done.
On today's agenda some breakfast, perhaps a mini shopping trip (I got a ton of gift cards from my kids for my last day!), and then odds n ends around the house. Specifically packing my bag for the hospital. My Mom told me a funny story about my Dad packing her bag and how she ended up in dress that he loved but didn't quite fit post baby. Chris has packed a bag for me before and let's just say I love him but sometimes comfy is better than Cha Cha. :)

Comfy is better than cha-cha. That's an awesome line! I laughed out loud!
Maternity leave is underway. How long is mom staying with you guys? That's really cool that she can come to Madtown to spend the time pre and post delivery, Caprise. Can't wait to see those first baby pics on your blog!
My Mom is going to be with us for almost 6 wks! Dad is coming for a week in July too, so everyone will get to meet the baby. I don't think we would survive with out my Mom's sage advice the first week or so!
