One more week! Give or take...

Well howdy!
Everything is ready for your arrival! And I have been cleaning like a mad woman, but that is actually not that far off from what I am usually doing :) I am dilated to only one centimeter...but a tenth of the way to the delivery! I have been having some mild contractions, but they don't hurt at all yet. A friend of mine from work, just had her baby yesterday and she was about a week and a half early! It makes me more excited to see how this is all going to go down. I think that it is going to happen fast at first and then may slow down, but I am trying to pump myself up for everything! I am hoping that Grandma CC and Grandma Pat will be there too, but we will see if they can make it up to Portland in time :) We will see you soon! You are really moving around on the sides of my belly, it almost tickles, but it mostly feels like you are trying to bust out! Ha! Soon enough :)

love mom

Will you be on time?

For the last few weeks I have been thinking that you have been putting your little rump right up to my abs...I thought that you were doing it because you were stretching out :) However, I think that this sensation have been Braxton Hicks contractions. It's kind of funny to realize it now since we are only two weeks away from your potential birth day! It is kind of fun to know that is what it is now, because it means that you could be coming at any time. I am 38 weeks tomorrow, and it just makes me so excited knowing that you will be here so quickly. I can feel that you have gotten bigger in there. I have gained about 27 pounds. I love you, I hope you are doing good in there!

Love, me
