Ready or not...

Here we go!

I'm on the computer for a few minutes tonight saying my "goodbyes." haha. Tomorrow I should be able to check in at some point, we'll have a laptop with us at the hospital. So, one of us will get on and post the details (and hopefully some pictures!) as soon as possible after the baby is born!

We had one last peaceful dinner at Outback Steakhouse with both our sets of parents, and friends Clint and Kristin. It was a lot of fun, and a great way to end the pregnancy. Tonight I'm wandering around the house doing some last minute packing and getting everything ready to go bright and early in the morning!

I'm doing better now than I was earlier in the day. I started to get really scared and nervous, but I'm feeling a bit more peaceful now. I'm even feeling tired - who knows, maybe I'll sleep! The baby is pretty active right now, I'm making a point to enjoy feeling those movements for the last time! Please just be praying that all goes smoothly tomorrow, that Baby will tolerate labor well, that my epidural works (PLEASE!), and that we both come out of the process happy and healthy.

We took one last pregnancy picture in the nursery, we'll have to repeat it when we come home with the baby! So I'll leave you with the picture, wish us luck! Here we go!

I stumbled onto your blog several months ago. I am 51 and now 7 months pregnant with our 17th child. My daughter is your age and now pregnant with twins! I have prayed for you, your husband and baby for these months and today is the day! I can't wait to see pictures. I pray that God will continue to bless the three of you.
