FIVE. MORE. DAYS!!! i'm so excited, but still so impressed with myself for being so patient. most other people are still saying "she might come early!" but i'm not holding my breath. we just have independence day (5k, parade, nap, dinner, and fireworks) and a few pool days left-- we'll be just fine!
i've been putting together a little "baby playlist" for our labor and i hope it'll distract me in the best way. we got your carseat down and graduated amelia in a booster seat. i sorted out and folded all your newborn to 3 months clothes and daddy cleared out a drawer in his dresser for you. i can't believe that you're going to be that tiny! we packed the hospital bag, but it's so light and i keep thinking i'm forgetting something? daddy's been to home depot twice to look for a replacement bolt for your bassinet-- we'll get it all together before you arrive!
at our last prenatal appointment, amelia asked if i'll "get my bum checked." we talked about correct anatomical terms and found out that my cervix was unchanged from the previous week. in fact, the nurse practitioner called me "50 percent effaced, maybe 60" so you know... definitely no progression. i love how different women's bodies are and how each labor and delivery is special to bring a new spirit into our world.
love you,
mom
