16 days to go

Today I am %75 effaced and 1/2 a centimeter dilated. So... my body is doing work but still has a ways to go. I'm excited that SOMETHING has happened at least. And the effacement is great they say! Yay! I will be anxious to see if anything changes by my next appointment, which isn't until next Friday. Memorial Day weekend has goofed up my appointments next week, but I'm sure Ava won't be early anyway, so it should be fine. Let's hope this little princess is on time! :)

So much has happened!


It's been a while since I have put up a good post... I've been super busy. Today is really the first day in a long while I haven't had plans! Well, I did have plans to go to Pug Crawl but it is really rainy (I am really sad about it to be honest...). But anyway I am having a great time at home with George! We are just hanging out and had grilled cheese sandwiches for lunch and are watching a movie. It's so nice.

Miss Ava's crib
Yesterday we had a surprise B-Day party for George! Since Ava is due right about his birthday, I wanted to still make his 30th special, so we had a party for him at the golf course. It turned out great! Here are also some pictures of Ava's room. It is finally ready I think. I got the last of what I needed today so we are ready for her. I have had a lot of cramps over the past week and low back pain. I can feel that she is riding lower now, that she has dropped. I don't think I look like I've dropped a lot but I can feel the changes. Tomorrow I go to the Dr. so we will see if anything has happened down there... I hope I have started to dilate! 

I am really anxious for baby girl. Actually, I cried today about it because as excited as I am, I can't help but he a little scared. I'm partially nervous about labor but its mostly after we get back home. I know everything will be fine, but I'm anxious about the changes at my house, that George and I will be sleep deprived, that my house will probably be a mess. I am looking forward to feeling normal again and not being pregnant, but I know the madness of pregnancy will not compare to the chaos of actually having a little baby in my arms... and my sole responsibility. So, yes I am nervous! But I'm also ready for this. I think :) 


Cute shoes :)

Some of my diaper stash!
