Happy Easter!

We had the Easter Bunny visit our house this year! I think that's a first...and bound to be the first of many from now on! My sisters kids, Kayla, Alecia, Alex, and Karl, found their chocolaty loot in our back yard on Saturday. And we even had Easter Dinner at our house on Sunday.
I have two weeks left until my due date, but was telling everyone I was sure I would go another three weeks because she measures so small. WELL, I had a doctors appointment on Monday. The good Doctor informed me because she is so small...they will take her sooner. Thus, according to the doctor, I will be having our baby next week.
"Three weeks" didn't sound so scary.
"Next week" sounds VERY scary!

38 weeks pregnant

38 weeks pregnant and TC!!!! You look so good Natty-pants! I can't wait to meet that small baby girl!

Lance Bettie and Calista said...

you look so good!
Two things I wish someone would have told me before Calista came:
1.) Buy breast pads now, so Ian doesn't have to later. (Poor Lance-he loved that errand)
2.) Don't step on a scale for the first week. (The day after I had Calista, I weighed 5 lbs more than the day before I had her- freaked out!)
I am so stinking excited for you both.

Hot Momma! Love the hair (I copied you)...Good luck next week! Yay! We're SO excited for you guys!

So do you have an actual induction date yet?
You are the best lookin' prego lady I've ever seen! You are so stylin! The last month of my pregnancy I just wore the same shirt every day because I was not ABOUT to go buy more clothes that I wouldn't be able to wear after 4 weeks.
By the way, I agree with bettie, breast pads and (ahem...) the OTHER pads are good to buy now. :)

It is scary! I had two and a half weeks left with Grant when they informed me that I'd be giving birth in 2 days! I had already prepared my self for 2 weeks over due like Abigail, so it felt like 4weeks too early. Getting a blessing for the birth was the best thing for me, it made a huge diffrence having the peace of mind that it was in His hands.

I can't believe the time already here! Are you going to have an April Fool's baby? I can't think of a couple more fitting to introduce their bundle of joy that April 1st. When are you being induced? BTW...eat and drink EVERYTHING the night before because they won't let you have ANYTHING in the room except ice chips. I couldn't even get coby to smuggle anything in. I was so thirsting that I thought I'd die. But other than that...drugs are good! BTW The best nursing pads I found were the Lansinoh ones. They come in a purple box. I loved them. I need your address, so I can send this nursing cover your way BEFORE you have T.J.! :) Call me!
