Can You Ever Really Be Ready?


The one final item we were waiting on arrived Monday.....the crib. With all of our bedding washed and in hand (thanks Nana, Papa, Grandpa Doug & Grandma Sharon), we were ready to finish assembly of the HBW's room. A few snags with our area rug but the room is now functional for any baby that needs to sleep, eat, burp and poop lots. Just in case I needed another reason why marrying an engineer was a good idea, the crib assembly provided it. After hearing everyone's horror stories about crib assembly, HBW's Dad had it assembled without issue in 30-45 minutes.

Now we are down to odds and ends, and not too soon as we had another exciting Doctor's appointment on Tuesday. I ended up back on the fetal monitor but HBW was an overachiever and had everyone at ease immediately. I'm having contractions and have begun the dilation/effacement process so things are headed in the right direction. With the temps now at 100 here, I would sure love this little one to make an early arrival. Nature will tell...........
