Appointment

I went to the OB today for a regular appointment. All looks well. I have only gained eight pounds (strange, I know). The baby is really healthy and has her head down like we want it to be. He said "If you went into labor five days from now we would be cheering you on!" That's right-- I forgot a baby is technically full-term at 37 weeks. I can't believe I am only days away from being able to bring home a healthy baby if she were born. That is crazy!! Thankfully, I am sure she still has a few weeks left before she feels comfortable enough to make her debut and we are totally fine with that. A lot of people are so sympathetic and guessing that I must want this baby out. I am actually quite comfortable and cherishing my last days with Hallie as my only child. Chris and I can't believe how much our lives are going to change again in just a few short weeks. What an exciting change to go through.

8 lbs?! Girl how did you manage that?! You look amazing and I could not be more excited for you all! We have 4 bedrooms and whenever we have baby number two they will be sharing as well. I always shared a room and I loved it... I think its good for them to do that.
