Yay! We made it through the weekend. Jonathan is back safe and sound and I am still pregnant. Now if I can just make it one more week. Trey and Sarah (college friends) are getting married this weekend near Boone, NC. Jonathan is in the wedding so he will be leaving again. However, this time it is only 2.5 hours away. Not nearly as big of a deal.
This weekend I spent the time getting the house and nursery ready. My mom (thank God for mom's) was a huge help. She stained his toy box cradle, went with me to get some missing items, and sorted all of his clothes. And let me tell you, thanks to a few good friend and their hand-me-downs, this baby has more clothes than I do. Of course we have no idea what size he is going to be and if he will be able to wear all of them, but it is amazing to have a closet and drawers full waiting.
They crib has sheets on it, the pack and play is set up, the car seat ready, and the stroller is ready. The only thing left is to run by the fire department and have them professionally install the car seat bases.
I now have to focus on getting my bag packed and getting myself emotionally and physically ready for labor and delivery. I haven't been able to exercise in several weeks due to all the contractions and fear of going into early labor. But come next Monday I am back in the gym (I'll be full term by then and it is ok if he comes).
For anyone following this blog that is pregnant or will ever be pregnant and is planning on having natural child birth, I highly recommend Bradley classes. They have been absolutely wonderful and, in my opinion, a great preparation for labor and delivery. I'll do a longer blog on it later.
Well keep you updated. Thanks for the prayers and support!
