I just got home from the Doctor and the official due date was Aug. 13. So we are a couple days past that. She has dropped a bit lower and appears to be ready. I think we are both having a hard time concentrating on anything. Fingers crossed for the 19th!!!!

So… we decided that first doctor who I went to in Park City, who changed the date from Aug. 17 to Aug. 10 was obviously wrong. My doctor here at Stanford said she thought the date would be Aug. 13 based on the size of the baby during ultrasound tests, well that was wrong. So now we are going to go with the flow of the original due date of Aug. 17 and see what happens. Brendan is betting on the 19th, then the 3 of us all have b-days on the 19th, easier to remember. So, we are off to try and distract ourselves with a picnic with Mom and Carson at Montebello Vineyard.
How lovely! Still waiting for the ‘real, litle pink cup cake

Me neither! I’m feeling fine too but on the verge of wanting the little one out now…
Fingers crossed for you that it won’t be too much longer!

Yesterday felt a bit like Christmas, Nonna Sam and Tia Carson arrived finally and brought tons of pressies for the little munchkin. Score!
I have been feeling just ok. Contractions have started, but not enough of a pattern yet. Doc thinks tomorrow but something tells me next week. Who knows. My waddle is redonkulous.
Brendan installed the car seat today.
I find immense warmth as Brendan creeps along beside me at a snails pace, stopping with me patiently when a contraction kicks in. He doesn’t need a #1 Dad t-shirt, you can tell in his eyes and in his voice that he will be amazing.

I think I just had a crazy nesting fix. Maybe that means she is coming soon!? We have most of her room put together, we are just waiting on some art pieces and an armoire and we should be all set.
We are a little nervous to put anything above her bed in case of an earthquake, we had one in the area just last week.
I can just picture her smilin’ sweetly at us in the mornings, or crying…
Probably the only time I will ever think diapers are cute. Eek! They are so tiny!! We decided on a diaper service but these will do for the first few days. She’ll go through 12 a day?? Oy vey…
Hope it all goes well. Mat and I are thinking of you and can’t wait to hear the lovely news.
