I am actually 37 weeks, but these pics are from 2.12.2009, when I was 35 weeks. 
The next time I take pics, I will upload them as well. I had DR appt today and of course, baby has not turned, but that is okay. I know where his head is, so I will definitely know when it is NOT there any more! I am actually glad for some concrete plans. I don't have to decide anything, I don't have to prepare for either way. I am glad to have a firm direction. Now I just have to wait and have a baby. I was maybe dilated to one. Those were her words. Well that could mean to some people that I am a long way off. Those were the words Dr Lawrence said to me the day or two before I had Sydney too. So who knows. Maybe next week? If not though, at least I know a sure birth date after that. I like the element of surprise, so I am truly hoping to go into labor before that day. I don't like choosing the birth date :) But whatever happens, happens. I think I am ready. I have everything washed, everything set up in my room, car seat in my car, my bag is half-packed (missing stuff I use daily), and I am mentally getting there. I even have the announcement mostly done, just needs a pic and the details. I don't want to sound like I am "sitting and waiting" cause I am not, I have too much to do for that. But when he comes, I think I have prepared myself enough for now! I just have to stop thinking about other anxieties I have (like will this nursing experience be good or bad? Will I hate it? How will I handle two kids, one of which I hold all the time, in addition to the new one and just have had surgery? Will I be able to take my pain killers? I know, sounds silly and I am not an addict, I just DO NOT like pain! Will I feel like doing anything? This pregnancy has been such a hormonal rollercoaster, will I have PPD? Am I going to be able to go the store again? HAHAHA I go by myself with the kids often enough. I am a get up an go kind of gal. I can't just wait till Jody is home. He has a weird schedule. Anyway some of my thoughts...much longer than I had planned!)

You look beautiful girl! I have been thinking about you. I hope everything will go good when it is time. There are definately a lot of feelings involved when you already have a few kids and look ahead to what it might be like..... You are a great mom!
