Ready For Baby

We're having a baby soon, have we mentioned that?  The room is all ready:



And we are too.  This kiddo is already quite a bit larger than Oly was when she was born (an ultrasound said it was 9 pounds at 36 weeks!), and I technically have a few weeks left.  Well, my body is showing all of the signs that it is READY: I've been having pre-labor for a few days, I'm already dilated 5 cm (which is more than many women when they arrive at the hospital in labor!) and the baby is "engaged", meaning it's dropped to the point where it's all of the way down in my hips.  The Doctor thinks it'll happen this weekend, but we know that no one can predict these things.  If I don't deliver naturally, we have an induction date for the 31st because they're worried this kid is going to get way bigger and then we'll be in trouble.  It'll actually be a January baby, not February like we thought.  I have one day left to have a Capricorn, then it's on to Aquarius as Margie pointed out.

We'll keep you all updated!

I bought this in a 3/6 month size the other day:
