Guess what? Daddy comes home in 2 days! You and I have been busy after traveling for work last week, and now trying to get your nursery organized and completed....So this will be a short post so we can get back to work!
I have read in a lot of my preg books that as the third trimester progresses, most moms experience a "nesting instinct." Apparently, something makes expectant mothers go nuts organizing and cleaning in preparation for the new baby. I think this is starting to hit me. After all of the lovely things we got at the shower last week, and all of the final things I ordered from Amazon this week to get totally finished - I'm basically the Tazmanian Devil in our house trying to find a place for everything and clean the house so it's nice for Daddy. And while I'm doing everything, I'm thinking about all of the things I need to complete each week for work so that I can not go crazy. But I'm probably going to end up going crazy anyway! I'm starting to feel like you're so close, and so I want to make sure that absolutely everything is done/organized/clean before you're here. I am a procrastinator by nature, but we're basically at a point where procrastination is out of the question. Eight weeks from today, if you haven't graced us with your presence yet, I will be induced. In a little under six weeks, you'll be considered full term. So honestly, you could come at any time after that.
LESS THAN SIX WEEKS! Yeah, that just freaked me out and I've gotta go back into your nursery and get back to work! Aaaaahhhh!
Oh one last thing - Daddy is in charge of your middle name and we're trying the one out in the photo below....What do you think? Daddy's middle name is Michael after the Saint. So he thought it'd be neat if you also had a middle name after a Saint. The church he grew up in was Saint James, so we're testing this out, but I have to say, I'm kind of loving it! It's different without trying too hard...At first I was a little weirded out that it's masculine, but I think it flows, and I really love that Daddy picked it out all by his lonesome:)
That's it from out here, Baby Girl! We love you so much!
