The Waiting Game



Well, this is the mom-to-be here; finally getting to be the one to choose some photos of the rest of the crew out here. We are heavily immersed in waiting these days, and as you can see -- it's a ball of fun. If anyone has suggestions for activities we can do throughout the day, please feel free to send them along, as we are growing bored with laundry, reading, watching PBS shows on Instant Netflix, and wondering aloud if we're having a girl or a boy. All that said, however, we're feeling pretty fortunate to have this time to relax and prepare... and sort the file cabinet.

37.5 weeks


We had a visit to the mid-wife yesterday -- all is well. Baby's head down, good sounding heart, midwife could not have given elizabeth more glorious reviews. And without going into too much detail, cervix is starting to look favorable (!) This prompted us to buy a diaper trash-can from a neighbor, which we're fairly certain came from the future.

Look how beautiful she is . .

loot!

We figured it was high-time to indulge in the famed American past-time of Acquiring Stuff for Babies. In all serious-ness, those who got us baby shower gifts - many thanks. Pictured here is some of the bounty -- lots of sweet books, and a bassinet bumper (handmade!) by the Dicksons.
