One Day Closer

We are one day closer to meeting our baby!! That's the attitude I'm trying to focus on at this point. This weekend sure would have been a good one to have a baby as it was just the two of us with no plans. But we did get a lot accomplished. Yesterday, not only was I able to sleep very well (half the time in bed, half in the LaZBoy) but I had a day long energy spurt. It was fantastic. I cleaned for about three hours straight, and still had plenty of energy the rest of the day. I think that may have been some hard core nesting. Regardless, the house is once again clean, organized, and ready for the baby. Its really important to us to have a clean house when I go into labor, so that we are coming home from the hospital to a clean house.

I had hoped to get another good night's sleep last night, but we ended up with some crazy thunder this morning, which got both myself and Nathan out of bed too early. And it put a damper on our Memorial Day parade plans.

There's not much else to report in baby news. I'm noticing a lot more Braxton Hicks contractions, but none that have resulted in any discomfort. And I'm still feeling a lot of pressure, which makes me hopeful that I'm continuing to progress. Nathan has been taking me out for a regular nightly waddle, which I think should also help my body get things moving along. (I say nightly waddle, because what I'm doing certainly cannot be called walking:)

I really wish I had more to report but that's all I have for now. And some of you have asked if/how we will be updating once the baby is on the way/here. I will probably make at least one post or have Nathan make one once I'm in labor/heading to the hospital. Then we'll have internet access in our room, so hopefully Nathan will be able to update again soon after baby's born.
