Finally full term

So this last Thursday I was officially 37 weeks. WooHoo!!! It has been a long journey and yet at the same time, it has gone by really fast. I decided that October 2, next Friday is my lst day teaching and then I am ready for her to come at any point. Hopefully she just hangs in there 1 more week. Yesterday I went to the Doctor and he checked to see if I have made any progess and I am 50% effaced and 1 cm dilated. That means things are starting to happen. I keep making to do lists and trying to everything done before she comes. Both Brian and I cannot wait to meet her. I feel like I have been pregnant the whole 2009. It will be so nice to finally get to hold her and love her and kiss her little toes.


Here is the last picture I took at 36 weeks. I just really popped out!

Maternity Photo Shoot

These are some of the many pictures taken by a local photographer Chris Allison. I was really excited about taking the pictures to show Kaylin what she looked like in momma's tummy. These were taken at La Jolla Cove at 33 1/2 weeks. We are also going to possibly use him to take newborn pictures. I can't wait til I get to hold her!

One month to go!

I can't believe I only have one to go! October 15 seems so close but oh so far away. I am still doing well. I occasionally complain. (If you ask Brian, he may say more than ocassionally). We just took our childbirth preparation class this past weekend, we have everything we need and then some. I am still working and think I am going to continue to work until I pop! I think that I am going to last the whole 40 weeks. I don't feel any closer to physically being ready. I guess we'll see at my Dr. appointment tomorrow. I will then start going every week. CRAZY. I can't get over how fast this whole pregnancy has gone and how smooth. I just hope that it continues to go smoothly. I got some maternity pictures taken a couple of weeks ago and I will post some of those later. Starting my 30 day countdown!!!
