One week until my due date... Monday August 8th!
I continue to feel great. My feet are the worst of it, swollen and sore especially with this heat and humidity. Will has been really wonderful and offers to rub them every night. How did I get so lucky?
Will and I just had our last weekend alone for some time. We took advantage of it, and enjoyed every moment together. And we finally finished the nursery. I have posted pictures below. It is a work in progress, as I am still collecting an alphabet to go around the top of the room. I still need 8 letters. (C, I, O, P, Q, V, &, Z) I am very happy with the way it turned out. Will especially loves, what he refers to as “the wall of cuteness”. If you didn’t already know, we both share a love of arctic animals, particularly seals and polar bears.
The name game… no, we do not have a name yet. We are waiting to meet him and get to know him first. Who knows, maybe it will just come to us immediately. Otherwise he may be known as Baby Boy Werwath or Wabbit for awhile.
I have absolutely loved being pregnant and am not ready for him to be out in the real world yet. I know I have one more week to go, but don’t think I will get anxious. Now, it may be a different story if I carry him until 42 weeks. But in the meantime I am simply enjoying the last little while of feeling him inside me. I know it is something I am going to miss. Still, I am really excited to think I'll be holding him in my arms soon. No idea yet when he'll come. He still has to drop, so right now we are just waiting on him.
My parents are set to come out on Saturday and plan to stay for a couple of weeks. It’s going to be great to see them and have them here. Hopefully the wabbit will hold off until they are here before he makes his appearance. Will’s mom is waiting until she gets her ticket, but we shall see for how long. Thankfully, Will’s Dad and step mom are just a few hours away in Maryland.
We really are in the homestretch now.
