37 Weeks...

Here I am at 37 weeks! To think I could be holding this baby in less than a month is exhilarating! I am not betting money on going early though. I continue to tell myself I have until Thanksgiving, so I will be pleasantly surprised if she does arrive early like so many think she will. In the end though, it really is all up to her.

The doctor said she is right there and ready, we are just waiting on all the other things to fall into place. He firmly believes though that when I AM ready, I will go quick, because she has been hanging out head down for so long, at least 10+ weeks. I will be sure to quote him on that if it occurs otherwise. =)

All in all, I am hanging in there and making the most of these last three weeks. I am walking a bit slower these days, and I am officially waddling. And just this week, my ankles decided to disappear into my calves, because standing on my feet day in and day out has eventually taken its toll. None of this is holding me back though. I have managed to organize her room with a little help from my mom, nearly finish decorating thanks to Jessie, Drew and his dad. And even put together a few baby items like her bouncy seat and pack-n-play. Yes, nesting has officially set in, and I expect it to continue until she arrives.

We are ready for Bella to arrive, but we are also quite content with her holding out a little closer to her due date.
