37 weeks!!

Our birth mom is 37 weeks and 1 day today! I talked with her yesterday after her doctor's appointment. She's already 1-2 cm and 70% effaced! That's only confirms my theory that we probably won't make it all the way to October 2nd, and everything needs to be ready NOW. :)

We've been baby prepping like crazy around here! I feel like we've worked and worked, but there is still so much to do!

Mark put in a ceiling fan, moved the curtains over to the guest room, and put in new blinds.

I sewed for hours on end...

...and finally finished the bed skirt! (No, the bumpers aren't done; I was just laying the fabric out to see how it would look.)

We also got our baby dresser! Thanks, Mom and Dad!

You know it's going to be a long night when you open up the nuts and bolt pack and see this.

Mark looks awfully happy, even after seeing the million pieces there were to assemble!

Those directions never left my side!

Tah Dah! We LOVE how it turned out, and we already have some diapers, wipes, and blankets inside.

My parents are in town this weekend for my niece Anna's birthday. The trip was planned long before we got matched, but our plans for their visit changed now that we have a baby coming in less than 3 weeks. They were so great and painted the baby's room all morning long!

Here they are hard at work! We'll post some pictures of the nursery all put back together too. I can't wait to see how it looks!

How much longer did you go when you were about 2 cm and 70% effaced?? I talked with 2 girls today who said they were about that and had a baby within 24 hours!
