Brian and I are still struggling with a name. There is a short list but we think we have to see her before we will know just what to call her.
Despite the whole bed rest bit, it turns out I am actually going to have a C-section on the 16th of September. I'd explain, but it's gotten rather old having to talk about it. Let's just say this pregnancy has been more than a little challenging.
I'm back at work and packing in as many shifts as I can handle before the big day. It's good to be doing some of the things most of us take for granted, like driving my car, going for a walk, or even going for a swim at my parents....I can now fulfill my nesting instincts without any guilt. The house is spotless, the nursery is done, and now we wait... I owe those of you who put up with me while on bed rest an enormous debt. You know who you are.
P.S. The Shandrowskis, the LaPointes, and the Seymours all came out for a surprise baby shower. We also got to see Ryan, Lauren, Rory, and Will, and Lois drove down from Maine for the bash. We loved seeing you all and it really helped to boost my spirits. Thank you all. We are well stocked with diapers. Now if we can just get Maddie out of hers.....
