Life has been quiet, but busy, at our house lately. We're attempting to get things done and ready for this baby. I finally packed a hospital bag, got the car seat out and started packing a bag for the boys. We're slowly emptying out the baby's room. No, there is no room set up for the baby yet. Whatever. She'll sleep by me for now. It's fine. We'll put her in our room until she's a little bigger whether her room is done or not. No, she doesn't have a name yet. We still haven't made it through the name book. We have 1 or 2 possibilities. I'm not really worried. It's not really like me to not be concerned that we aren't totally prepared. I think I'm too tired to care. :) I haven't been sleeping well so getting things done takes a back seat to a nap many days.
Nate also was working some nights the past week so that really threw a wrench in our plans. I had to take the boys outside or to my parents' house just so Nate could sleep during the day. Keeping them quiet so he could sleep is merely impossible. So I didn't get much done and he didn't get much done because his sleep schedule was so messed up. Oh well. He's back to days now and hopefully we'll get back on track and get ready for the baby.
It seems as though we have some time though. I was shocked at my dr. appointment yesterday when he said I have made no progress towards labor. With the way things went with the boys I thought for sure this baby would be early. That baby is positioned with the head down, which is good, but there is no progress yet. I was a little disappointed, but I'm very excited that as of Sunday (37 weeks) the baby will be full term. I talk about this with my dr. and his staff a lot. When you've had preemies having a full term baby is an amazing feeling. I'm getting very anxious to meet this little one! Hopefully next week I'll have made some progress towards meeting this baby. I guess I'll have to find the energy to go for a lot of walks to get things going. I'm sure the boys will be more than happy to go for a lot of walks.
