Less than 6 weeks left ...

... which is why I figure I've gotten so slack with the updates! I've actually been waiting to get some of our photos put on CD in order to post them. A friend Amy works with took this great shots of all of us and I wanted to put some up. They turned out great.

As for pregnancy update, I've had some braxton hicks, mostly at night, and some bits of mucus plug fall out .. but no baby yet! I would love to share the mucus plug story but I think it would make Amy cry again. You really had to be there!

We were suppose to go to prenatal classes this weekend (JJ's idea) but unfortunately (can you see my tears) he's ended up with this awful cold and has been barred from all pregnant meetings. I'm hoping he'll be well enough for the hospital tour on Monday night, that I am actually interested in going to. The prenatal classes just don't excite me really, I'm not much of a "group games" sort of person.

We are just about ready for baby to arrive. We have somewhat of a diaper bag put together. My hospital bag almost filled. Crib, bassinet, high chair, bouncy/vibrating chair, playpen .. all spread throughout the house and just waiting for a baby. All I need now is the breastpump and we're done! Oh yes and of course the van/suv. No we still haven't bought anything yet. We go back and forth on what we want, then by the time we find it, we change our minds again. I have given up on this one and have decided to let JJ just go buy something himself. As long as we all fit in it, it makes no difference to me.

Hope all in the family is doing well out there ... I'll try and get those pics up as soon as I get them on the 'puter.

Hey cousin,
glad to see you're hanging in there! The last couple months are the longest it seems, you have all the baby stuff and are just waiting for the baby to arrive. Although be careful what you wish for...Aaron's cousin was over last Friday and said I have all the stuff I just need the baby and would you believe she actually went into labour at our house, six weeks early. So now she's got a preemie and wasn't prepared for that...anyways, it looks like you've got everything so it'll be up to family and friends to buy the cutesy bum ruffle tights or the manly little baseball caps. We're waiting on the arrival to avoid buying lemon and lime gender neutral stuff, they just aren't as cute, are they? Can't wait for the big news....take care!

Hey Les

How have you been? I really am just bored to death waiting for this one to arrive. I guess though as long as it is inside, the easier it is to take care of .. I do remember that.

We've bought so many yellow and green outfits and towel and blankets and whatnot that JJ won't even let me baby shop anymore. I don't think he'd mind so much if it was a girl wearing all that yellow .. but I'm not sure yellow is a manly enough colour if it comes out a boy!

Well baby is almost here .. four weeks to go is not that bad considering it took us 36 to get here!!!
