38 Weeks?!?! When the heck did that happen? :) She can be here any time now! Trev and I are so excited!!! His last day of work is tomorrow and then he'll be off until she gets here.
Doctor's appointments have been weekly now. They say I'm right where I need to be health wise and baby is in a good position. I'm not dilated yet but there's no rush. Even if I was it doesn't really mean anything because I've know women who are 4-6 cm dilated for a couple weeks before their baby comes. I think I've finally started feeling what Braxton Hicks are so that was interesting to say the least lol.
The last week we have been pretty busy. We have been working on Raelin's room, packing the hospital bag, and also celebrating Trev's 31st birthday this past weekend.
(This is a blanket my friend Mary Jo and I made especially for Trev)
He was a little sad there was no pirate stuff in Raelin's room so I scoured the internet for a couple hours and found this pirate material out of Taiwan or Indonesia lol. It was so worth it especially for how excited Trev was. I'm a little worried though because he said he loved it so much he may take it underway with him :P
(and here it is in Raelin's Room)
These next 2 projects I know Trev took great pride in making :)
(he made this glass lamp and filled it with sea glass we found in Michigan and also when he was on a port-a-call in San Juan) It looks really neat up close!
(this is the other project he's been dying to get done. These are the nautical flags that spell out Raelin Rose :) took a couple days to paint and string up but it was definitely a fun project)
Here are some other pictures of her room
(she's not even here yet and she has so many clothes and blankets lol)
(This is where her change pad will go after I move her diaper bag and little toys)
Trev and I also wanted to thank Grandma TT for holding a baby shower for us this past weekend. We heard it went great and saw pictures of the decorations :)
We will try and update the blog again but if not, it may be because she has arrived. We will definitely post pictures of her and us once we get home. Trev and I have decided we are going to initially text parents to let them know about going into labor and her arrival. We will be making calls after we have rested and enjoyed a little time with Raelin. We will probably ask parents to call grandparents and extended family.
Please don't post anything on Facebook until we do, we would greatly appreciate it :)
