Low rider.
Our due date is now two weeks away. I hope it really will be two weeks or less until Baby G is in da house, but I guess I’m just as likely to be late as early. OK, I’m probably more likely to be late than early since this is our first, but let’s stay positive here. I’m penciling him in to arrive next week, and hopefully he will cooperate.
In the past few days I’m pretty sure he has dropped. My belly looks lower, and he feels heavier and lower. I’ve had a few contractions here and there, some a tad painful, but nothing to make me think it could be the real thing. I’m basically constantly on watch for any signs of labor at this point.
Friday is my last day of work, which I am happy about. I’ll probably spend a good bit of my time off hanging with my friend, Lynne, and also just trying to stay busy on my feet to try to get things moving along. I’m planning to make some meals to freeze for after the baby comes. I’m also going to work on a little craft project, which is making a clock for the nursery, so hopefully the parts I need for that will be here by early next week. I really don’t have any artistic abilities, so it’s likely that it won’t turn out well, but at least it will be a fun distraction to pass the time.

I am so excited for you and Matt. You have reached the point of ultimate anticipation. Everything is ready and you are just waiting for the baby. What will his name be? I just received your blog address from Sue and I haven’t gone back and read all of it. You sound so organized! I am impressed. It feels like forever since I have seen you. I am staying home with David and going to school at William Carey at night. I will graduate May/08 and it seems so far away. You will realize when you have the baby how much quicker time goes by. You blink and they are in preschool. It is so weird. But having my kids is the BEST thing I have ever done in my life. For that I am proud. Email me and I will send some pictures–I have your old address, I guess. Love ya, Velina
