Ready! And waiting.....

My bag is packed and ready to go. I've paid someone to paint my toenails, since I couldn't reach them. Believe me, my feet are like 3 times this big since this photo was taken! I now know where the phrase "barefoot and pregnant" came from - it's because NONE of your shoes fit! I have been trudging to work in flip flops lately, just trying to make it through each day.

I was able to maneuver some leg shaving - you know, all these things I think are "important" when I know the doctor's and nurse's could care less. It's all for my own sense of comfort / clean / feeling as put together as I can???

I guess since I felt so good for most of this pregnancy, I was in denial about these end symptoms ever coming. I miss wearing my wedding ring (the only piece of jewelry I never take off). I hate not being able to move as quickly or in the same directions as I used to. At least the head cold I was battling is finally gone! I am so happy to breathe again!

The first load of laundry is done in the special baby detergent - his sheets, blankets and some clothes. Some of the clothes are so tiny I have a hard time believing that he will be that little!

Jon and I have been enjoying our time together, these last few weeks, feeling a closer bond than ever. It's been such a special time!
