48 Hours and Counting!!!!

Well, actually not even 48 hours at this point--eeeks!!! We are being induced on Wednesday morning at 5:00am (who's going to sleep a wink Tuesday night in this house, is my question--hopefully Connor at least ;). It's very surreal at this point!

I have been having lots of symptoms of labor over the last few days, and even though it hasn't been the real thing yet, at least I know that my body is "gearing up" so the induction should be a lot better than it was with Connor!!!! I'm actually not scared at all--just sooo excited to meet this little girl!

Connor and I are trying to get some cleaning done today, although my energy level isn't too high at this point! ;) We've both been fighting a crazy cough/cold that WILL NOT go away! It's like the never-ending bug.....really though, it can vacate at any point--we've had enough! ;)

Love to all, and we'll be sure to update on Thursday after our newest little one arrives! All prayers for a safe delivery and healthy baby will be much appreciated!!!!!

Waiting for the Big Day!!!!



We are now at 37.5 weeks--I had already had Connor by this point! I had an appointment on Thursday, and my Doctor said it could be any time now...so, we're just waiting for the big moment! ;) If I don't go on my own, he wants to induce at 39 weeks to avoid any blood pressure episodes, so no matter what, little Brooke will be here in a week and a half! Woohoo!!!!




This pregnancy really has been so enjoyable. It's been so much easier this time around, and in a lot of ways, I really will miss having her in my belly! We're so excited to meet this little one though, and have had so much fun shopping for little dresses and layette outfits (actually, Mimi has had the most fun :). Connor and I are both dealing with chest colds right now, so hopefully we'll be healthy by the time Ms. Brooke arrives.




I'm attaching a picture of the MASSIVE belly....really, I get so darn huge--I feel like an anomoly :) (did I spell that right?). I bump into things--especially Connor all the time...it's actually pretty comical! We'll definitely update with any new news!!!
