39 weeks

I have been off work all week and getting final preparations for our newest family member ready. I am SO glad I decided to take this week for myself and my family. I got an extra free day with Carli and have been able to stock the kitchen with food for when we are at the hospital and catch up on a few DIY things around the house.
To keep myself busy, I started changing our interior door handles. We are slowly getting rid of all the brass in the house. It is amazing what a difference little changes can make. We have A LOT of doors in this house and I am only about half way done...but we love the new look!
 
My doctors appointment this week was quick and easy. I regained the "missing" 2lbs so I have officially gained 16lbs this pregnancy. All my vitals look great and I am set for delivery tomorrow.
I haven't slept well the last few nights and I have had some pretty crazy dreams. I am sure it is a mix of emotions....excitement and fear. I am definitely ready and anxious to meet this special girl.

My mom is here and we have everything ready to go bright and early tomorrow morning! We have to be at the hospital at 7:30am. Carli is VERY excited to finally have sissy arrive and to have mamaw here for a few days. I just can't believe the time is here!
