Above are a few pics of baby's room: the "changing table" was once our kitchen island, then was in Logan's room for a changing table, and recently I fixed up the drawers with some fancy paper and mod podge so it is girly; finished the quilt (pics in last post) and sewed matching curtains; and the students finished the amazing artwork!
This Wednesday (in 2 days) I will be 37 weeks!!! It is crazy to think that Logan was already born at this point. Needless to say, I am feeling the "time crunch". Last pregnancy I was praying "Lord, if it is your will please let this baby come early b/c I can't imagine getting any bigger". Ha! This time I am praying "Lord, if it is your will please let this little girl wait until at least the 16th so that my doctor will be back in town and so I can enjoy fondue on Valentine's Day".
The good news (well, besides the fact that we're having another baby!) is that at my doctor's appointment I found out I am already beginning to dilate! Praise Jesus! Last time my water broke before any contractions had started...which I found out recently, is the longest and usually hardest labor. Glad I didn't know that when I was in labor, perhaps I would have panicked? I am also having contractions on and off (and have for a few days). I do realize this could continue for weeks.
This time I do have bags already packed (hair-bands included since I didn't even pack that much last time), and we have a plan for friends coming over to watch Logan (which is a huge blessing since we don't have family nearby this time). There are still a lot of little things I would like to get done before she gets here, but if she comes I think we are ready enough (as ready as you ever are to bring home another child).
The biggest thing we are praying for and "waiting" on God's timing is getting a bigger car. The biggest reason we are waiting is we are trying/needing to sell Chris' car. We should be able to get a decent amount of money out of it b/c it is in great condition, has never been in an accident, etc...but we don't want to move forward until it is sold. So, if you remember and have time we'd love your prayers that his car would sell, and it would sell soon!
Hope you enjoy the pics of her mostly finished room! And if I don't post until after I have her, then the next post will have pictures of our little girl...and yes, then I will tell you all her name!
