A week might as well be a year ...

That's about how Whitney feels right now. She's ready for Baby Girl to come and so is Jacob. 39 weeks is long enough, right? Apparently Baby Girl doesn't agree because tomorrow is her 39 week mark and there are little to no signs that she'll be coming soon (but of course that doesn't mean it can't happen sooner).


But we think her room is finally ready! Baby Girl that is. Or at least that we have basically everything that we need: crib, mattress, bedding, cute stuffed animals, clothes, car seat, baby rocker, toys, stroller, diapers, wipes, cute wall decorations, more clothes, pack-n-play, toiletries, nasal aspirator, etc. We're pretty set until she comes and then we'll realize everything we don't have. We're just ready for her to come!


See! Everyone seems to think that Whitney hasn't gotten that big. A lot of people have said that she looks good (which of course is true). But she feels terrible.


She looks good though! We're just both ready to meet Baby Girl. We're excited, but very very ready.

Cute nursery! Jacob did a good job putting the crib together... I will be watching anxiously for updates regarding new new little lady...

You will have to write all about the birth, since I am ridiculously interested in birth stories after my experience with Wendi's and my run-ins with placentas.

Ha ha, Whitney... birth stories of my own... As I said in my birth post... now that Bush isn't president, we feel comfortable bringing a child into the world.

Of course, either McCain or Obama winning meant we got rid of Bush, so either way we would have had a "green light" for conception.

I hope you are doing well... know that I am going to be thinking and praying for you all week!

BTW, the word for this post is "underwa" which makes me think of a three year old trying to say "underwear".

Cute nursery Whitney! Hopefully you won't be a week overdue like I was!! :) Those last couple of weeks seem to go soooo slow, huh?

You do look really good. I am jealous. i was huge at the end. But I was lucky and Ryken came early. i wonder what will happen with our next little guy? Well either way your little girl will be here soon. And we can't wait to see pics of her. :) So hang in there.

You look adorable, as does your nursery!! Josh was exactly a week late, he just didn't want to come out of his comfort zone! Same thing today! She is just showing her personality early!!
