And the countdown continues....

Six days to go.  We keep getting closer to the due date, but no signs yet that little Eli is ready to greet the world.  Apparently mommy's tummy is just too warm and cozy :)  I saw the doctor yesterday and he said that although he doesn't think I will go that long, he made an appointment for me to be induced on Nov. 23 so I can avoid being in the hospital on Thanksgiving.  Everyone keep your fingers crossed that we don't have to worry about that! :-)

Nursery

We've finished the nursery!  Yay!  We are so excited to have everything in and ready for our little man to join us (even though he probably won't be in there for the first few weeks :-))  but it feels good to have everything done. 

 

Time off / Giving Jason a heart attack

So today is my first official day off of work!  I can't believe I'm on Maternity Leave!  Jason and I went to the gym this morning before he started work.  And now I'm in the process of nesting :-)  Trying to tie up the loose ends and clean the house.  I was in the process of sorting through some paperwork and baby books when a huge (and I'm not exaggerating, it really was big!) spider ran across the kitchen table.  Unfortunately I made the mistake of yelling up to Jason that I needed him to come downstairs "right now".  As I heard him shove out of his chair and go running towards the stairs I realized that being 8 and a half months pregnant and screaming up to my husband that I needed him urgently probably wasn't the best idea :)  I yelled up to him that I was not in labor, just needed help with a huge spider and I heard him stop in his tracks and utter a word that I will not repeat in this blog.  Sorry honey!  I'll try to be more careful from now on ;-)
