37 weeks 5 days

Or closer to just 37 weeks as my doctor's records are showing. Weird. I got my number off my first ultrasound. Oh well. Anyhow, here are the pictures from last night. I almost forgot to take them. However, my mom ripped my ass for not getting an update yesterday so I jumped right on it. As you can see, I was in full on comfy mode! The belly is monstrous!!!


I was so shocked after my appointment yesterday, that I called today to make sure I was really getting all the information right. I wanted to make sure that I really am 4cm dilated and am not just losing my mind. Sure enough the nurse confirmed it. She also gave me strict orders to monitor my contractions and to not wait for them to be consistent for an hour, but just a half an hour before getting my butt to the hospital. She said things could move very quick. YIKES!!!!
While I have been thinking that Miss Skylar won't come til next weekend, a part of me now thinks this weekend would be perfect. Why? Because we have Swae and Seth this weekend and I want more than anything for them to be part of this experience. I want them to be in the waiting room and I want the two of them to be the first to meet their little sister that they are so excited to meet. I can't wait to see their little faces, to see Swae kiss her, to see Seth reach out and rub her. I just can't wait. I can't wait to see the look on Eli's face when he sees her for the first time. I can't wait to meet our little angel.
So we shall see what happens. Either you all will get another update of big belly pictures next week or you will be seeing baby pictures before then!
For now, I am off to finish up things at the office just in case.
