37 weeks...Full Term!!

Well, we're officially full term! YES! The doc told us this week that if the baby is born now, there should be no cause for concern. Lungs and other organs should be fully developed. I never realized what a relief hearing that would really be! This week Bradley and I have worked diligently on getting the nursery together. All linens and clothes are washed. There is a sheet on the crib mattress. The diaper bag is mostly packed and what is not packed is sitting on the dresser right next to it ready to be thrown into the bag! Unfortunately, I think that it's going to be a long waiting game now. I have not yet had the desire to "Spring Clean" the entire house. There is still dirt behind my stove and the refrigerater still has yet to be wiped spotless. Ha ha ha...I doubt though that I'll have that "nesting" instinct. I'm not really one to have everything spotless, although I did think a couple of days ago about dusting the ceiling fan in our room...but only because the baby will be sleeping right under it for a few weeks/months.

Please continue to pray for us. Bradley is starting to get really busy at work and has a few more weeks of planning and organizing to do before he can feel comfortable taking time off. Please pray that the labor and delivery will go smoothly for me. And finally and most importantly, please pray that our little boy or girl will be born healthy with no complications. We are SO incredibly blessed that the Lord has entrusted us to be parents.
