Holy crap--we made it to WATERMELON!!
Cash may weigh a bit over 7 pounds and 20 inches long. The belly is heavy this week and I am feeling pregnant. I will be happy to not have fat girl feet.
I started off my week with pedicures with my 3 of my favorite ladies (so glad you are home Nicole) and Tuesday night got in a hair cut/color. Wednesday night was relaxing and Thursday my fabulous co-workers had a cake for me and gave us a nice gift card to Target. It will be helpful when we start buying formula. That night we had some friends over to grill out and cause some mayhem. What's a grill out with out having the Sheriff stop by, right? ;)
Friday morning we had our last OB appointment before Cash's arrival. I was super emotional but we made it though. Dr. E wheeled in the ultrasound cart to take one last look. I had no idea why she taking so long until she said "that's what I was looking for" She found a nice pocket of fluid so she would let me stay pregnant one more week. She said my cervix had softened but I had not dilated. It was much easier for her to check me than her partner last week so it is clear I have dropped some. We got our orders for the C-section, made my 2 week follow up appointment, and were on our way.
The weekend started with birthday celebrations and Saturday I had the whole day with my husband. It was a treat! We finally had the time to see The Dark Knight Rises and went to check out his old band that evening. Last Saturday before becoming parents....super surreal. I am already feeling more in love with that man than I ever have these past few days. We are both anxious and excited. And like I have said before scared but there is no one else on the planet I would rather be traveling this journey with. We may be lost but we can learn together.
5 days until we meet the little human we created.
More posts to come!
**Happy Birthday Nicole and Welcome to the World Cadence!!**
