2 days till baby is DUE!!!



These are just a few of the photos my friend Carey took on Monday. She did such a fantastic job. Thanks a million. IOU!@! (& a HUGE thank you to photoshop too--amazing how you can make yourself look good, while carrying an X-tra 60lbs!!.)

I am not in any rush for this 3rd child to arrive--still have so much I want to get finished while I only have 2 babies to look after. On my due date (Feb 8th) we have new appliances coming, the next day (or so) Grandpa Jim driving or flying up to pick up Scott's truck & take it back to Raymond to fix it (an employee had a little accident & dented up the box), today I barely found the boy baby clothes and need to wash/organize them. As well as the car seat, some blankets & bedding... {with my other babies I was ready to go, but this little guy will be surrounded with lots of love, maybe not have any sleepers or a crib, but a ton of love.} I also need to organize/tidy our house, do a little cleaning, perhaps some laundry--so the rest of us have clothes to wear. Luckily my mom is flying in the following Thursday, the 15th & if baby isn't here by then, I'll be induced on the 16th.
Both my other 2 babies have been a week over, so I don't expect this one will be too much different....So things could work out just right. Of course I am a little freaking out. Been trying to relax, but knowing the pain involved and doubtful I'll get a hold of an epidural--I don't know if I can ever be ready. All that I really need is Scott to hold my hand. He is my salvation. Don't know if I could do this without him to lean on (LITERALLY) . Watching him with that new baby -- is priceless. I fall in love with him all over. I love to watch daddies and their babes. Nothing is sweeter.......
