Well, as you can see, the nursery is ready to go and so are we! I'm officially 3 weeks away from my due date, which seems almost unfathomable! After our long wait of almost 3 years, it's hard to believe that in 3 weeks (or maybe less) we will be holding our baby daughter. This was such a special week, celebrating Christmas and feeling so blessed with the awaited arrival of the little miracle in our life. Last Christmas we were not even sure if we would ever be able to experience this joy. Now it's right around the corner. In a way, I'm a little sad to have my pregnancy be over, as I have loved every minute of it...even now with the swollen feet, ankles (or should I say cankles) and aching back...I wouldn't trade it for anything in the world. Dustin is so excited for this baby to get here, he can hardly stop smiling. Picturing him holding our daughter brings me a joy I cannot even describe!As for any new details, I really don't have many. Baby is very active and rolls around like crazy. Sometimes I think she's doing sommersaults in there. I have not felt any contractions yet at all. Just had a doctor's appointment yesterday and all appeared well. Doctor Swanson says he estimates the baby to be between 5 1/2 and 6 pounds at this point. So for now, we just wait! Something we have become very good at! Keep praying for a smooth, healthy delivery for me and wait for that phone call...it could be any day now!
