And Down the Stretch we Come

If this were the Kentucky Derby, we would have rounded the final turn and be heading down the home stretch!

We had a doctor’s appointment today and everything looks text book. The baby is turned head down, has an ideal heart beat and doesn’t appear to be “too big.” The doctor said things could change pretty quickly, so to be on the watch for contractions that are 5 minutes apart or for my water to break. So, for now, it’s just a waiting game.

Since we are anticipating the big arrival right after Christmas, we decided to scale back our Christmas decorating this year. We did put up a little 2 foot tree for our own enjoyment though! Below is a current picture of me. Sleep is hard to come by, so you can probably tell I look a little tired in this photo.

We’ll keep you posted if anything changes! Oh, and a few people have asked about the baby’s name, and in case you haven’t heard yet… We’re trying to keep it a surprise until his “Birth” Day! Hopefully, we’ll be able to announce it sooner rather than later!
