Friday Night Update

Alright, here it is - after our appointment this afternoon - baby is happy with a strong heart rate and movements. They are concerned that I am on the low end of the normal amniotic fluid levels. SO, if nothing happens before Sunday evening, we will be heading back to the University to try and get the ball rolling. In the meantime, I'll be doing everything I can think of to induce labor naturally! Regardless - chances are very good that we will be able to meet the little one by Monday!! I'll be in touch. : )

Working on machine quilting my quilt this morning. I really did want
to hand-quilt it, but after trying that out last night... I decided I
would rather have it finished more quickly than struggle with teaching
my self how to hand-quilt. I'll have to attempt that again with a
smaller project.

Thank you

Just wanted to say hi and thank you for everyone who has been checking up on me. It warms my heart that everyone is sending us good labor vibes and are so excited to meet our little one. I promise there will be updates from the hospital if at all possible, because my super-cool iPhone allows me to blog from anywhere.

40 weeks 5 days

So... I've gathered that you all are checking up on me here, so I thought I would try to keep updating. Still pregnant! LOL! I had lots of sweet people checking in on me today. I can't say that I feel any closer to labor & delivery, but from what I hear it can come on quite suddenly. :)

Today I finally finished up the last piece of decoration for the nursery - which is this window frame. I painted the scene on watercolor paper - it was inspired by the farm-themed crib bedding - then mounted the painted pieces behind the glass. I think it is pretty fun!

Working on a painting project for the nursery this morning.

Nesting

Trying to stay active here in hopes of moving baby into position, so I did a bit of cleaning and organizing up in the art loft today. It felt great to clear some things out (on their way to the Reminisce garage sale happening this weekend) and move others to a place where I can hopefully use them instead of forgetting that I even own them.

Thanks for all the comments and birthday wishes! Sorry for psyching everyone out with my baby photo! Ha ha... As you can see, the belly is still in full effect. I'm done with work now, so I am spending a nice Monday running errands and organizing around the house. Also found time for a walk in the beautiful weather and a itty bitty nap. I promise to be quick to update with any changes. :)
